totes Titan Compact Travel Umbrella - UV Sun Protection, Windproof, Water Repellent, One Touch Auto Open/Close

Edit to original review. A heavy wind bent the umbrella backwards, piercing the fabric, causing a leak.

size is smaller than expected.

Great item! Holds up against wind. Worth the money for sure!

Pretty sturdy, more metal in it, and a larger canopy than others. Have not been in a big wind yet. Normal rain works fine and better than the Joseph Bank one I had.

Compact little umbrella.

I order this umbrella recommended by a friend. I have to say, its very nice, good size, and sturdy. I would recommend if you are looking for a good umbrella to use.

Very light and fits in my backpack big enough to protect me in the rain

So don’t let the pictures fool you. It’s compact when folded. But unwrap it and press the button to reveal a big ass umbrella! And press it again to collapse it! It looks and feels really high quality and I can tell by the metal that it won’t just unravel when the wind blows. I bought the black one and it looks professional and work ready, while also compact and has a nice strap attached to it, so it’s perfect for my commute to work. It’s also really affordable for a totes umbrella (this is my third, the first two got lost) with the $4.00 coupon amazon has going. With free next day on Prime! But best of all, even though it’s big, it’s not as big as those ridiculously huge umbrellas people in New York walk around with, so you won’t look like a douchebag when you have it open. Lol Overall, I’m super satisfied with my purchase, and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a nice, sturdy, reliable yet compact umbrella, big enough to also cover your backpack. Maybe even with a loved one.

Great product for its value

I was a huge fan of totes umbrellas for well over 30 years. I would go to the outlets and buy a few annually. They would last easily 6 years and I even have one thats 15 years old in perfect condition. They used to be really well built with fine materials but not anymore. Based on looks and feel youd think these would last 20 years. It felt really solid at first but eventually fell flat after medium winds and a bit of rain. Things that used to be all metal is now plastic. Cheap aluminum snapping and falling off the rivets with barely a wind pushing. It doesnt even close anymore. I have to pull it hard. Im really saddened by todays totes umbrellas. I would really like to send it in for the warrantee but why would I want another garbage umbrella? Its time to move on and find something better.
