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

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

I purchased this umbrella specifically to keep in my truck. It is the perfect size to store under the rear seat compartment. The umbrella comes with a fabric storage sleeve. I especially like the handle because it is large and easily fits my hand. It opens with the push of a button on the handle. You have to push it to fully extend the umbrella until it clicks in place. I have only used it once since I have had it. It was raining with a moderate rain. It was a quarter mile walk but the Totes worked just fine. It is wide enough to keep the upper body dry in a downpour. However no umbrella is indestructible if a sudden stiff gust of wind gets under the umbrella. My umbrella was black. I did not encounter any problems using the strap. I gently wrapped the folds of the umbrella in the direction of the Velcro strap closure and it works perfectly each time. So far I am satisfied with my Totes. I would recommend it to others.

Great for Tucking in your pocket when you dont know what kind of weather to expect

Compact and very sturdy. The open and close mechanism has been flawless.

Only the top part of this umbrella closes. You have to pull it down the handle to completely close it. Extreme caution has to be taken when doing this because the ribs are VERY sharp. I am returning it. Its inconvenient and dangerous.

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

My wife was tired of umbrellas turning inside out. So far, enjoying the ease of operation.

Excellent product--good coverage and wind resistance, with just the right amount of resistance when closing--all at a very good price. I bought this after being disappointed with another, more expensive, brand.

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.

It is easy to use and is light.
