> 24 hourThis is a nice, compact umbrella. Its portable enough to throw in your backpack, but as most umbrellas are, it isnt super durable. You will eventually be buying another.

> 24 hourI moved from a Landsend briefcase to a backpack. No loops for an umbrella in backpack, so I was looking for small collapsed size. Fits the bill - press button to open, press button to collapse (collapse requires some additional manual collapsing.

> 24 hourReally like the size of this umbrella. Easy to carry with me or stow in the car. Being in the Northwest, it rains a lot of the time and with this, I am prepared. Seems to be well made and nice fabric.

> 24 hourThe Raines Automatic Compact Umbrella was small enough to fit into a pouch on my purse it was readily available for my trip to the British Isles. Also easily able to refold when I got inside.

> 24 hourIt is just the right size so that I always have an umbrella with me. Took off two starts as it does not appear likely to hold up well with any very windy rain day.

> 24 hourBought this to use for traveling for interviews and it was perfect! Nice and small to keep in my briefcase and automatically opens and closes at the press of a button. It is definitely meant to keep a single person dry, given its small size. Would recommend for those who need a travel umbrella!

> 24 hourI needed an umbrella to keep in my bookbag at all times, (have been caught in a few rainstorms in the past without an umbrella and it sucked). For that reason I chose this totes mini umbrella. It has an automatic open close function which is awesome. The coverage area is quite small, but for the purpose of being an emergency umbrella, this does its job well. Its small, light, and functional. Often times i even forget that its in the side pocket of my bookbag, and more than once have I been glad to have it with me.

> 24 hourThe umbrella is nice and small, but still a little heavy for its size. The first time I used it, the wind did get under it and blew it upwards. It has a nice open and close one touch feature button. It is not easy to find an umbrella with all the features. This one worked fine i guess.

> 24 hourThis is a solid, well made small-sized umbrella that fits easily in a large purse, bag, backpack or briefcase. I have even carried it in the pocket of my rain jacket. It is easy to pop open with one hand.

> 24 hourThis umbrella is compact enough that I can tuck it into a back pocket. This makes carrying an umbrella just in case a very small burden. The first press of the button on the handle causes the pole to extend and the canopy to open. A second press of the button causes the canopy to collapse. The user then has to compress the pole, and this readies the spring for the next use. I liked my first one so much that I bought a second one to keep in my glove compartment. As with many things, there may be more sturdy or generally nicer umbrellas out there, but this one is so small and convenient that I am vastly more likely to carry and use it. As others have noted, be careful when selecting your color. As of this writing, there is a colors may vary option for which the default picture is a dark color - perhaps black or navy. If you want to be sure that you get a dark one like black or navy rather than one of the brighter options, be sure to select that color.
