Greater than one weekThis is a Trenovo automatic open/automatic close Unisex travel umbrella. When folded, it measures 12.6 inches long and 2 inches in diameter. It is lightweight black pongee with a matching slip-in case (1.2lbs). It has a generous 46” span when open. There is a wrist strap on the handle to help prevent loss. To open the umbrella, first pull off the nylon cover, disconnect the Velcro closure, clear a 3 foot circle around yourself, and press the “^ or open” arrow on the handle. The umbrella springs out and is now fully operational. To close the umbrella, push the “down or v” button on the handle. Once the umbrella is partly retracted, a very firm push on the center is required to reduce the length to the starting size. Give the umbrella a few spins to even out the pleats, gather the pleats clockwise and set the Velcro closure. To replace the cover, tighten the pleats with one hand while drawing the cover over the dry umbrella. Slide the cover down evenly over the hand-compressed pleats. This umbrella is strong and well made. The high quality and high density 210T “pongee” material is water repellent. Unfamiliar with pongee, I investigated “pongee” on the internet. I discovered that pongee is a “durable and strong silk-like material.” More importantly, “The best quality umbrellas are made of pongee.” Ten reinforced fiberglass ribs on a strong, powder-coated steel shaft support the extra-large, double-vented canopy. Venting allows wind to pass through the center of the umbrella, without turning the umbrella inside-out or breaking it. There is a highly reflective strip along the bottom edge of the canopy for greater safety at night and in low-visibility rain. Fully closing the umbrella may be difficult for children and seniors. Otherwise, this is an ideal solution to using an umbrella in confined spaces. This umbrella makes a great and useful gift. Excellent value for the money. Highly Recommended.

> 3 dayThis is a nice compact umbrella that opens to a really good size. it has the double layer so it should not flip in the wind. I havent used it in the rain yet, but it looks like it will work great. When folded, it is a nice compact package. It comes with a sleeve, its pretty hard to put back in after its been opened, so that will probably be the same as the others I have had and wind up living in the glove box. I do like that this is an inverted umbrella, it keeps the wet off of your car and floor. The edge is reflective, making you easier to see when walking in the rain. Overall a very nice umbrella!

> 3 dayMy wife got an Inverted umbrella through a work promotion. Hers is full length. It doesnt fold down as compact as this one. We found it very useful, especially when getting in a car with a wet umbrella. I wanted something to keep in my own vehicle the majority of the time. I ordered this because it is inverted and because it is more compact. Doesnt take up much room when not in use. This is pretty substantial. Has some heft to it, but good coverage too. Single pushbutton release to open, and it it is quick. Dont blink or you will miss it, and dont be pointing it towards anyone when you hit that button. Has a bit of force to it too when trying to close it back up. Push from the top. Has a hook and loop strap to hold it closed. It is hard to get back in the bag though, but I will probably not even bother since the strap keeps it closed anyway. Yeah, I thought it was a little expensive when I ordered it, but this isnt some cheap frail semi disposable umbrella so I actually think it is worth it. I am pretty happy with it and would recommend it.

> 3 dayThis looks and feels like a great umbrella. Ive used it once, and it has held up great. The only downside, which needed to be more to lower the rating, is that there is no way for it to fit back into its cover without a significant struggle. But that isnt a deal breaker for me.

> 3 dayThe Trenovo Travel Inverted Umbrella is a option for those in need of a rain umbrella. The 10 ribs of the umbrella provide added strength and support, which should make it resistant to strong winds and heavy rain. The automatic folding feature also adds to the convenience and ease of use of the umbrella, as it can be easily opened and closed with one hand. One of the standout features of the Trenovo umbrella is its unique inverted design, which allows for easy storage and prevents water from dripping onto the user when closing the umbrella. The reflective material on the canopy also adds an extra level of safety when using the umbrella at night or in low light conditions. The double vented canopy allows for added airflow, further reducing the likelihood of the umbrella flipping inside out in high winds. The canopy is also made from waterproof and UV resistant material, providing added protection from the elements. Overall, the Trenovo Travel Inverted Umbrella is a great choice for those in need of a durable, reliable rain umbrella. Its unique inverted design, automatic folding feature, and added safety features make it stand out from other options on the market. This review was made from second hand information found online.

Greater than one weekThis black auto folding travel umbrella (about a foot tall) came packaged inside of a plastic sleeve along with a storage pouch and a sheet of instructions. I found the auto open and close buttons to be convenient Once the umbrella is opened, there is a vented double canopy inside which allows wind to go through unlike my old umbrella that does not have that type of canopy where it gets flipped inside out when there is wind --which makes of course, makes the good ole traditional umbrella not so helpful on windier days. The reflective stripe that they included along the edges of this umbrella is a good added feature which of course helps to increase visibility especially as I am using the umbrella when it is rainy and kinda dark outside. And because this umbrella folds (in reverse) the rain water is collected and stays in the umbrella to reduce the likelihood of water dripping on me. Of course, I have to remember not to invert the umbrella as the collected water will come out! (Note: I did have a bit of difficulty storing umbrella back into pouch as it is fitted and I had to roll tighten the umbrella in order for it to fit back into the pouch.)

> 3 dayThis umbrella is called a travel umbrella, but I think it’s a little too big and heavy for long distance travel. Maybe for a quick trip or car trip it would be helpful, but I would be reluctant to bring it for a long s distance trip. As to the umbrella itself, it’s very sturdy and strong. It must weigh over a pound as it’s a beefy mechanism that seems to be very well constructed with nice materials. As other reviewers have stated, once you remove the outer sleeve, getting it back in is nearly impossible. Not a big deal, as this is pretty common and really not necessary. The spring mechanism works great.
