Totes Blue Line Golf Size Auto Open/Close Umbrella, Water Repellent Canopy, Black

Been a fan of these umbrellas because they are compact enough to store in my backpack without adding significant weight. They are durable as I have owned one for at least 2 years before having issues and the fact that Totes offers a lifetime warranty on these makes these a smart buy. It’s been years since I bought a new umbrella. Whenever my umbrella starts having an issue, I send it, my warranty tag, located inside the umbrella, along with a $5 money order to Totes for shipping and they send a replacement.

Ive had smaller umbrellas, they were OK, but I really like the size of this one. It feels sturdy, the mechanics of it work as advertised. Good umbrella.

These are great umbrellas. They are larger than the average size and have auto open and close.

It allows me not to get wet in the rain

I really like this umbrella and it arrived right before I had to go out in the rain. My only issue is I didnt receive the color I ordered. I ordered the beige and black one but received an all beige one.

This umbrella is nice enough: it is compact, sturdy, and automatic. Unfortunately the plastic breaks down after a few years. The handle becomes gummy and then sticky, leaving gunk on your hand.

I have now owned 3 of these. None have failed, I just tend to leave them behind in carts and restaurants. I lose one every couple years. This one is quality, and you dont feel as bad when you lose it as there are many that are quite a bit more expensive. I like large umbrellas that collapse smaller, and this one fits the bill.

I love this umbrella! I had three same one for about 4 years before I finally left it someplace and had to replace it. It does everything you could want in a compact umbrella: folks up small and opens big. It fits readily in my briefcase. Pushbutton open and close is super convenient when you only have one free hand. Extremely durable and made from quality materials. Its worth a few extras bucks over the cheap substitutes you can buy on the street.

Only used once, during a merely moderate but direction-changing, gusty downtown wind. The moderate, inconsistent wind direction inverted this umbrella several times during the 20 minute walk. Finally, upon getting indoors, I saw three of the eight staves had became significantly bent. Note: My wife and daughter had other brand umbrellas which also inverted but which did not suffer damage to those umbrellas staves. The company gives no exchanges or refunds unless umbrella is returned in perfect condition within 30 days -which have already lapsed for me. Going forward, this umbrella still functions, but its fragile susceptibility to further damage (or complete failure?) from any direction-changing, moderate gusts makes me give future buyers this warning/recommendation: -->Pay more and get a more durable umbrella or be prepared for frequent umbrella inversion and resultant damage to (or complete failure of) the umbrella.
