totes Blue Line Golf-Size Vented Canopy Compact Umbrella, Black, One Size

Good quality umbrella. Big and sturdy enough to cover two people yet small enough to be portable. Like another reviewer said, its still too big to fit in most backpacks but you can still work around that. Bigger than your typical portable umbrellas and smaller than the big golf umbrellas. I liked the first one I got that I ended up buying another one.

Ive actually purchased this twice because my first one was borrowed forever by my sister. This is a solid umbrella that when collapsed is just about 20.5 long. When opened the canopy is large and has a great handle with good grip. Here in NYC lots of people buy the cheap $5 street umbrellas but those things will disintegrate in a large gust or a collision. Dont lose or let people borrow this and itll last you longer and keep you dryer.

Great, HUGE umbrella for me. The umbrella has a premium and sturdy look. Its slightly heavier than I thought for a umbrella larger than 55. But Im happy with it. Only thing I noticed is you need to use a little more force to close it and you need to push it open after pressing THE button, lets say its semi-automatic action. Anyway, its a pretty good one Ill say.

Heavy duty umbrella should hold up to winds. Large coverage, enough for 2 people. Kind of bulky and on heavy side but thats what I ordered. The handle could be a little more ergonomic.

Bought this one hoping itll last for a long time, slightly disappointed. Pros: Big. Comes with a carrying sleeve. Compact (Tripple fold style). Strong metal construction. Cons: The connection between the frame and the cloth couldve been better. This is the part where it broke down for me. Yes, I could even fix it by sewing it back myself but, if I could sew it and make it stronger, why cant the manucator do a better job? It is very heart breaking to see something couldve been a perfect product not perfect because of something small. Bottom line: Good product that needs minor fix.

I love this umbrella. It was the only one I could find that checked off all my requirements: Long Handle, Wide Covering and Vented. I its not the golf-sized umbrella that I see that could cover an entire family, but it does have a nice sized canopy. You can feel the stability of this umbrella every time it opens. I live in NYC and it travels well. It wont fit completely in most everyday bags but I knew I wanted something with a longer rod. My handle sticks out the top of my bag and I dont mind. My one complaint is the wrist strap off the handle. It is elastic and makes it annoying to carry with the strap as it bounces too much when walking.

After several (fairly expensive) golf umbrellas that fell apart after a few uses, this umbrella seems to be well made and fairly robust. Most of the large umbrellas Ive found use cheap plastic frames that break apart quickly and are impossible to repair. This umbrella has a lightweight metal frame and a folding action that works very smoothly. I would expect it to last through many seasons.

This is a great umbrella for the price. My only issue is with the word compact. yea, its more like compact-ish. Its not quite a tote, not something you could toss into a bag, but smaller than a full-size. The trade-off is that it covers quite a bit more than a tote umbrella. Solidly built.

Provides a good balance between size when opened and size when closed (can fit in my backpack). I bought a second one because my kid stole my first one, which I received from Totes after a different model failed with little use. Their products have a lifetime warranty and they will honor it. So glad they sent me one of these, because Im totally sold on them now.

After my son and I got caught in a really heavy rainstorm that blew my previous umbrella inside out and broke it, I wanted an umbrella that would be compact, easy to carry, and would be able to cover both me and my baby when I carry him. This umbrella is huge and stores fairly easy for its size. It seems very sturdy and I like the blue color. Now I find myself wishing for rain so that I get to use it!
