Review on 🌈 Classic Totes Rainbow Auto Open Umbrella by Patricia Mendoza

I use an umbrella a lot (especially when taking my kids to school in the rainy winter weather) so I tried a few of these. Honestly I'm mostly disappointed with the quality and they don't last that long. I even got one that Wirecutter recommends as one of the cheapest portable umbrellas, but I didn't really like it (surprisingly because Wirecutter doesn't usually fool me). So far this one seems GREAT. (And interestingly, it's endorsed by Wirecutter, too.) It feels like very good quality - strong but not overly heavy (although it certainly isn't light). The fabric feels pretty solid and I think the extra ribbing adds some strength to the construction. The mechanism is smooth and quite easy to use. The rubberized handle with a large hook helps to hold it securely. It also looks very cute which my kids love! The only downside, of course, is that this is a full-size umbrella that takes up more space than a compact telescopic binder. All in all, I was expecting another disappointing budget. Umbrella, but am very pleasantly surprised/impressed with it so far! highlighted.
