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

Good umbrella for a big/tall person or you could get by with two people if need be. Auto open and close are snappy and the build feels solid. My only complaint that you may have to exert a lot of force to fasten the velcro for storage, almost to the point where you are worried about damaging the canopy. Another eighth of an inch of fabric would have been perfect.

I have bought two of these. the first one worked like a champ and will do so again as you will see in a minute. The first one has a broken rib so it dangles a bit when opened, so i decided to get a second one, and use the first as a back up. So i get the second one, and have used it for about a month though not as often as the first. All went well, until last night. i had opened it when i got home to let it dry out. i went to close it, and when i pressed the button, it did something to the whole mechanism and i could not get the darn thing closed. or reset. or anything. it is now in the trash bin.Okay, i understand that things break, it is the way of things, especially anymore, but considering the price, which while not stratospheric it does pinch a bit, i would have expected better. Heck, i would have expected better from the Totes brand. I have lost many an umbrella, but this is the first one i have owned that just flat out packed it in. i take the bus. had it pulled those stunts there, it would have been a mess....

Good quality. Delivers. auto up AND down super helpful.

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.

Great umbrella. Has held up well in the short time Ive had it. Good size canopy for such a small umbrella.

I dont know if this is really SUPER strong. A strong wind gust still pulled it inside out. But still better than any other umbrella Ive owned. Weve bought three now.

Great little Umbrella. Compact easy to store in the car. Seems fairly robust or at least robust enough for California rain

The umbrella is good, but it is a little bit small, not very suitable for men.

Ideal commuter size umbrella. Bigger umbrellas are really not suited for use in the city. People who use them are really inconsiderate. The Titan seems well built, but I havent had it long enough to attest to durability. Auto open/close is a great convenience. Bought a Blue Line as well; and they seem comparable.

Worked well for rain storms without wind: it folds up small and has a big canopy for the size that it is when closed. First time I had to use it when there were gusts, the canopy detached from one of the spoke ends. Ive had it for less than two weeks and I already have to fix it.
