totes Titan Portable Travel Umbrella – Windproof, Waterproof, Strong, Compact Umbrella – Perfect for the Car, Backpack, and On-the-Go

Its a very nice umbrella. Sturdy and well made. The open/close mechanism is great. Its wind resistant and doesnt fall apart like cheaper umbrellas do. Its why I insist on buying Totes umbrellas rather than the $5.00 specials I can pick up at the grocery store. You dont save money with a cheap umbrella if it breaks in the first rainstorm when its used. However, the rod holding up the canopy is shorter than I expected, and the umbrella canopy isnt as big as Id like. I am keeping this as a backup in my car and bought the same Totes umbrella in the golf size.

I borrowed a friends one rainy evening and purchased one immediately for myself. Great quality and small size makes this a great option for a briefcase or backpack. Highly recommend for a quick go to.

Such a great umbrella. While all my co-workers umbrellas were inverted because of the wind, mine stayed in place. I also love the easy open feature because my kids take it to school and I dont worry about them having issues opening or closing the umbrella!

I am pleasantly surprised. This is a very well made umbrella. I live in Seattle so I know about umbrellas. The metal work is better constructed than any other umbrella Ive ever used and it is still a fairly compact umbrella. I took this with me on a trip to England and it held up to winds and heavy rains without turning inside-out. Great price for an umbrella that will hold-up to high winds and heavy rains while still taking up not too much space in your bag.

Great umbrella. I have used it very high winds with no issue. My office is near the shore and winds during storms tend to be much higher than inland. . The umbrella has held up well. Much better than buying the cheap umbrellas at the drugstore and then having then break after two rainstorms.

This is nice...but its a standard umbrella size. I need to find the next size up that folds like this, but not a Golf size.

The only thing I dislike about this umbrella, is that it’s not very wide.

Totes makes high quality umbrellas and this one is definitely one of their best. It opens and closes quickly and easily. The size is perfect to keep a single person dry while still being compact when closed. I highly recommend this umbrella.

While this Titan umbrella does open and close at the push of a button which makes it easy to get on and off trains and in and out of cars, after a while it doesnt close well and you have to do it manually after pressing the button. It is also heavier to carry than the original standard Totes open and close umbrella. I attribute the heavier weight to making the Titan wind-proof, which it truly is, even in cold windy weather in Washington, DC. The regular Totes umbrella was NOT windproof and turned inside out all the time.
