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

Best umbrella Ive owned, and now I have 2 of them (one stays in the car) to make sure I stay dry in this surprisingly wet California winter.

It is easy to use and is light.

It is strong enough that can bear most wind in daily life. The auto open and close unit is smooth. I give four star because I dont appreciate the so-called life-long warranty of totes. You should pay additional fee for warranty and cannot get warranty in store.

This umbrella is very frustrating to use. I had to replace this umbrella with a different brand because this umbrella kept opening by itself. I have to always make sure that I use the Velcro to close the umbrella or else itll pop open. The only good thing is that it feels sturdy, but I might also accidentally hit someone with the umbrella when it automatically opens, so the sturdiness factor is actually bad in that case.

Great value for the money. Good quality construction that is designed to stand up to high winds much better than some costlier brands.

I sent this umbrella to my granddaughter away at college after a storm broke two umbrellas. It’s standing up nicely to the NYC rains. The one hand open and close is perfect when your hands are full.

Why only 3 stars? Its the last mile on this umbrella, the high impact pastic rods typical of all Totes to flecks the canopy, they get broken easily. I also regret not getting a vented model+,

Will stand up to high wind - its a totes

KEEPS ME DRY AND SCARES RAIN AWAY. EVEN WORKS IN EXCESSIVE WIND CONDITIONS. IT BE LIT PEOPLE.

I had a smaller version of this automatic umbrella so I really like that feature along with the durability of the material that this umbrella is made from. I have always bought Totes as I am always sold on the durability of the umbrella and the sizes that cater to my necessity.
