Reverse Folding Windproof Umbrella, Large 46", Strong & Light

I bought these umbrellas for my wife and I about a year ago, and we've been very happy with them. I commute by train to Chicago every day, and the umbrella's portability has been great! I love how it folds in on itself in such a way as to contain the water on the inside. Just remember to open it up to let it dry when you are done using it. The automatic-closing feature is novel for me and I really enjoy it. It makes it easy when needing to quickly get into a car or train. I like the different styles you can have. I bought myself the "blue skies" model and my wife the milky way one. They're neat! It's honestly just a little thing that makes me happy. I will say, this really is a compact umbrella for commuters. I'm rather tall, and my legs do get a bit wet when the rain is coming down particularly hard. If you need more protection get one of Tumella's larger umbrellas. The build quality is nice. The materials are good, and I can see the clever use of springs on the inside. It has been one of the most stable umbrellas for me in the wind. However, as with any umbrella, sometimes the wind can catch these and pull the fabric up out of place. This can stretch the springs. This happened with my Wife's umbrella. One of the springs stretched out and was affecting how the umbrella folded. I contacted Tumella's support about the damage and they sent me a brand new umbrella for free under warranty. Of course, all warranties have caveats and exemptions, but they honored the warranty without any hassle. The support staff was great to work with. I would encourage any customer with an issue to not hesitate to contact support with any questions. Overall it has been a great umbrella. It's a good value, especially with a support team that cares about their products.

This umbrella was a little pricey, but I wanted a nice one to bring back and forth with me to work. For six months I used it happily - it is a good compromise of small when folded and large when open. The flower petals on mine are so cute. On really windy days it did occasionally flip inside out, but I could flip it the right way again easily. My only complaint is that it is not really self-closing... the button closes the fabric part of the umbrella, but doesn't retract the umbrella (make it short again). If you push the button again while the post is extended, it will not open the umbrella. You have to push the umbrella closed before you can use the button to reopen it. That was a minor complaint of mine until my umbrella stopped being able to be pushed closed. I'm not sure what happened - I can't see anything, but perhaps the post has a slight flaw? In any case, I could not find a way to use the umbrella at all at that point as I don't believe it can be opened manually without using the button. I came to this page to write a review and give it 3 stars because of how it was unable to be used anymore, but when I looked at the product again, I was reminded that there is a warranty on the umbrella. I reached out to Tumella and explained my problem. After a brief back and forth about the issue, they responded that they are sending me a new umbrella! That customer service bumped the rating right back up to 5 stars. TL;DR: Love the umbrella, but had one small issue. Umbrella broke, company stood behind their warranty and replaced the umbrella. 5 stars.

I’ve been waiting for it to rain so I could have a chance to use this wonderful umbrella before writing a review, but I will just update it later. While I haven’t had the chance to use it in the rain just yet, I can tell it is made of wonderful quality, unlike any other “self-collapseable” or “inside-out” umbrellas I have tried before. My previous one broke, and this one seems so much better. Not to mention how beautiful it is! The handle is also nice and grippy, which is comfortable to hold in my carpel tunnel wrist. And such a big bonus was the customer service! They actually give you a letter with the umbrella, telling their story, which makes it feel REAL, and that it didn’t just get sent to you from some warehouse, but there were people who care behind it. They sent a message to make sure I received my umbrella as well, yet another personal touch. I can’t wait to actually try it out in the rain! Thank you! ☔

Easy to use but I purchase this item often. They don't last more than one season before the opening mechanism breaks.

This has been a great umbrella. I like the Tumella brand and when I found the flip top it was perfect. Great wind proof unit that is nice and compact. Liked it so much I bought a 2nd one for my daughter.

Use this to block sunlight during hot days. I call it my 'sun-brella' and I love it ease of use. I can take it everywhere and it's not in the way, works well with wind as well. I'm light sensitive, so it works for me

So far I haven’t had any major problems. It’s a quality umbrella that blocks rain. It holds up in the wind though it feels like it’s about to flip if there’s a gust in a different direction. I enjoy the auto open and close function. It’s still working well. The reason for the lower rating is half the time I open it, it opens up flipped. I have to pull it back down to get it in the right shape. This is why I expect it for flip in the wind as well. If it flips up when it opens, it’ll flip in the wind.

Had a problem with another Tumella umbrella, which customer service was very responsive in resolving. Despite having a larger canopy, the reverse folding umbrella holds up well to wind, and effectively resists flipping. The rubberized handle is comfortable to hold and the umbrella folds up relatively compact despite the larger canopy. The luminous pattern is bold and vibrant. Overall the umbrella is a solid product with good value for the price. Customer support is also very good.

Aunque la tela se ve delgada, funciona correctamente. La estructura se ve fuerte y resistente. Ahora falta evaluar la durabilidad.

I found the button for the automatic opening and closing to be very useful when hands are full and it’s raining. Yes it does take a fair bit of strength to completely close the umbrella extension. However, the Opening and closing mechanism is extremely abrupt and quite loud to operate. I gave people close to me quite a start! The breeze did manage to flip this umbrella several times when I was using it for sunshade when walking and not in rain. I found this umbrella to be quite heavy too - especially for its size. Unfortunately, when carrying the closed Umbrella on my wrist as my hands were full of bags and parcels, I must have inadvertently dropped it or it slipped off my wrist… hopefully whomever finds it gets to enjoy my briefly owned umbrella. 🥹 at the price I paid, I’ll not buy another as I don’t thin out warrants the expense. Cheaper ones will do…

Disappointed. Heavy , difficult to get up & down

El producto es bueno, solo que en ocasiones cuando abre, un parte lo hace al lado opuesto. Uno mismo lo tiene que acomodar
