totes Automatic Open Close Compact Foldable Travel Umbrella

This is small, opens easily, feels sturdy. The tiny fabric bag it came in is too small to get it back in but so are most of the included bags. So I wont down rate it for that. It rolls up tightly anyway. I love it.

The umbrella opens easily and keeps me dry, but even with the automatic closing feature its difficult top close. I have to use both hands and push the end against something solid.

This 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.

Works quite well and the size is 7.5 when folded. This one has a push button feature for both opening and closing. That works very well too. The coverage is quite good for a very small umbrella, but a bit testy for two people. I havent tested it in windy conditions, only light winds, but the construction looks strong enough to hold up in at least moderate winds if not more. In case you are curious, Totes makes an even smaller one (only 5.8) that they call a purse umbrella that I reviewed earlier and it is excellent. Relax guys, the purse thing is just a name. Its a black umbrella that you put in your pocket. These mini umbrellas are great when you dont want to tote around a large umbrella all day.

There just isnt another umbrella with this much coverage that shrinks to 9 inches - they usually go to 12. Not the best vs the wind but there is always a tradeoff.

This is my go to umbrella to take to work. I like it for the small size when folded, the automatic open and close feature, and the sturdiness. Yes, it eventually breaks as umbrellas do, but it lasts pretty well. I now get them for every member of the family. Otherwise mine disappears!

Good, quality umbrella. East to open. Just a tiny bit hard to tie it closed so it look like it did when it came. Not a big issue--and it may just me being klutzy.

Slightly difficult to bring back to original position after using, but overall very sturdy.

Sturdy, lightweight and wonderfully small umbrella. I can fit it right in my handbag. Good price. Only problem is that it is a bit difficult to close.

Only good for one person to be under.
