totes Titan Compact Travel Umbrella, Windproof, Water Repellent Auto Open/Close , Black

This umbrella is very good at $24 dollars. It is extremely portable meaning that you can place right at the sides of your backpack. Its a very strudy umbrella but, when the weather is windy its hard to hold the umbrella over your head and thus, you get wet. So on rainy occassions without any wind and you want a portable umbrella with you at all times i would recommend this one because its extremely portable, has a nice price, and it actually works.

They said it withstands winds up to 70 mph. I had a previous umbrella that said that, but it did not work! The previous umbrella I had from Macys would open and close, but was very hard to push in and one day after coming home out of the rain, I threw it down the trash chute! I will respond again after using this Totes for a while. UPDATE: I USED THE UMBRELLA FOR THE FIRST TIME YESTERDAY. IT IS A DECENT SIZE, BUT IT DOES NOT LOOK STRONG AND I AM SURE IT CANNOT STAND STRONG WINDS BECAUSE AN EARLIER BOUGHT UMBRELLA, WHICH WAS STRONGER, COULD NOT STAND THE WIND. ALSO, OPEN AND CLOSE UMBRELLAS ARE NOT GOOD FOR SENIORS OR SOMEONE WHO IS WEAK IN THE ARMS BECAUSE IT IS ALSO HARD TO PUSH IN. AND, YOU HAVE TO PUSH IT IN BEFORE YOU CAN MAKE IT GO UP AGAIN BECAUSE I TRIED IT YESTERDAY. I CLOSE BY PUSHING HANDLE INTO CHEST OR WITH BOTH HANDS IF I AM NOT CARRYING ANYTHING. I DONT LIKE TO CARRY AROUND LONGER UMBRELLAS, SO I HAVE TO PUT UP WITH THESE SMALLER ONES. WHEN I THINK ABOUT IT, THEY USED TO SELL UMBRELLAS THAT WERE A LITTLE LONGER, LARGER AND STRONGER. I WILL HAVE TO LOOK FOR ONE OF THOSE. MY MOTHER HAS A DUCK FACED ONE, WHICH IS LARGER THAN THIS ONE. SO, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS UMBRELLA FOR STRONG WINDS! FINALLY, AFTER USING UMBRELLA AGAIN, I WILL HAVE TO LOOK FOR A LONG AND BIGGER UMBRELLA. I WAS GETTING VERY WET TODAY BECAUSE THE UMBRELLA HARDLY GIVES ANY PROTECTION. I WILL NOT BUY ANY MORE SMALL UMBRELLAS, ESPECIALLY ONES THAT OPEN AND CLOSE WITH SAME BUTTON. THEY ARE A PAIN!!! PEOPLE WALKED PAST ME TODAY WITH THE EXTRA LARGE ONES THAT NEED TO BE ON A BEACH!!!

Always great to have a good big umbrella that can collapse on its own. Great for travel as we got stuck in disney in rain. Didnt have this bought their cheap China one that broke. Figured buy one and leave in suitcase for future travels. Can fit two under easily

you cant go worong with a totes,opens easily has a wide spread easy to carry

Would give it 5 stars but its a little longer (collapsed) than expected and doesnt fit easily in my computer bag. Very sturdy - noticeably weightier than my previous.

KEEPS ME DRY AND SCARES RAIN AWAY. EVEN WORKS IN EXCESSIVE WIND CONDITIONS. IT BE LIT PEOPLE.

I can get a better umbrella for that price.

Nice standard umbrella. Compact size when folded, good coverage when opened. Have not tested it yet. Just received it.

This umbrella is very frustrating to use. I had to replace this umbrella with a different brand because this umbrella kept opening by itself. I have to always make sure that I use the Velcro to close the umbrella or else itll pop open. The only good thing is that it feels sturdy, but I might also accidentally hit someone with the umbrella when it automatically opens, so the sturdiness factor is actually bad in that case.

I was what i expected.
