totes InBrella Reverse Close Umbrella, Invisible Water Repellent Coating, Auto Close

I had been considering buying an umbrella like this for sometime. There were so many choices! When I saw that Totes made one, I decided to buy it. I absolutely love it! It does not open automatically, which I would have liked, but opening it manually is no big deal. The design is wonderful! No more getting my clothes or surroundings wet from the wet umbrella. Plus, it stands up by itself! It is well made and appears very sturdy.

Used 1 time, no wind, and seams ripped. Really big waste of money

Really liked them so I ordered 4! Well one of the 4 is hard to put up now because the metal arm inside the umbrella gets caught in one it the holes! But still super easy for my kiddos to use! (Ages 8 & 5)

I love the inverted design, it is much easier to close to het into buildings quicker and dryer. The only wish I have is that it were a little wider and deeper for more coverage of my arms when it is really coming down. I walk everywhere, so when it pours I still get a little wet.

The only issue I have with this is that you have to use two hands to open it. If I could push the button and it opened without having to use my other hand to push it up, I would have given it a five star! Once it is open, I love it and getting into the car without getting sopping wet is wonderful!

I live in NYC and most of us dont drive here. Being that its a walking city, I need to have the perfect umbrella, especially for going out with friends and for dates. I want to be able to see my friends/date and also see where I am going on the sidewalk. People on NYC streets with opaque umbrellas are very clumsy. This umbrella opens and closes nicely, looks elegant, and matches every outfit.

Love the concept. I returned it because it wasnt big enough to cover me plus backpack. I like that the ribs wont get caught in my hair. And of course that the rain stays inside one folded down after use. Kind of cool that it can stand by itself. And its pretty inside and out when in use.

This is a glam umbrella that has kept me dry in soggy weather. It does weigh more - or at least feels more weighty - than the other reverse close umbrellas that Ive used. This does mean that I am less likely to grab it if Im going for a long walk.

Love the fun colors of the rain drops on this umbrella. I have had Totes brand for a long time, I have an older wood handle one and a small compact automatic one but I wanted to get the reverse one to keep from getting wet when getting in the car. It works just as advertised and I know with Totes the umbrella will last a long time. It is a push up to open and the button only releases the lever so you can close it down but that’s okay for me at least. It feels very sturdy and the handle is a comfortable grip and feel. My one complaint is they use paper stickers so that was a bit of a frustration getting those off the handle but otherwise it’s great!!! I’ll probably even use it when it snows here since it does eliminate the rush of water when you close a normal umbrella while getting in the car.

This umbrella seemed like good quality, but we returned it because it was too big for my kid to take on the bus. Looking for something smaller.
