totes Titan Compact Travel Umbrella - UV Sun Protection, Windproof, Water Repellent, One Touch Auto Open/Close

The is the second Totes umbrella of this type Ive owned. All works well on it, but when I try to finish collapsing it, the latch mechanism in the handle is very hard to engage. Some silicone lubricant seems to have helped, but not totally eliminated the problem.

Clip holding umbrella open broke after a few uses. After that, it was useless.

My daughter has been using umbrella for about 2 weeks now and has had no problem with opening or closing umbrella.

I was a huge fan of totes umbrellas for well over 30 years. I would go to the outlets and buy a few annually. They would last easily 6 years and I even have one thats 15 years old in perfect condition. They used to be really well built with fine materials but not anymore. Based on looks and feel youd think these would last 20 years. It felt really solid at first but eventually fell flat after medium winds and a bit of rain. Things that used to be all metal is now plastic. Cheap aluminum snapping and falling off the rivets with barely a wind pushing. It doesnt even close anymore. I have to pull it hard. Im really saddened by todays totes umbrellas. I would really like to send it in for the warrantee but why would I want another garbage umbrella? Its time to move on and find something better.

Ive used Totes umbrellas for many years but I always pick them up at a physical store. This time I ordered it from Amazon and the one I received seemed fake. It was flimsy unlike the sturdy quality that Totes normally have. It was also damaged. I returned it right away.

A very good umbrella Price is far

All umbrellas are made in China. I hate to admit it but they know how to do it. I bought this to fit in the door of my 2017 Impala and it fits great. One button open and close works great. Velcro wrap around fits snuggly. Comes with a cloth case.

I like the open close feature though it doesnt close all the way. Needs to be manually pushed to get to the packing size. 4 stars is because it does stay pretty wet, it doesnt shed water as described.

This is not a 47 umbrella

Worked fine in the first few times of use. Today it broke, in a light snowfall with minimal winds.
