RainStoppers Auto Open Auto Close Deluxe Mini Umbrella

I suppose an umbrella is an umbrella and it's fine as long as it keeps you dry, but I had three issues when I received this.1. I ordered a solid navy umbrella but got a white and blue striped one. Not the worst thing that could happen but disappointing. I didn't have much of an option but to use it since it was raining and I had no other umbrella.2. Mini? I expected an umbrella that had a double fold so that I could toss is into a crossbody bag for days out in the city. When closed, although it is slender this umbrella is easily over a foot long. Not ideal for small bags, or even zipped-up shoulder bags.3. The handle on my umbrella is entirely unlike the one pictured. The open/close button is a small little dot, somewhat painful to push. I expected a medium sized button about the size of my thumb but this one is a small wooden dot hardly bigger than the center of my thumb. It's not bad to open but painful to push closed.So if you just need an umbrella, get this one but don't get too attached to the specifications because it might be a completely different umbrella than what you expect.

This is not exactly what I would call a mini-umbrella. I was expected a compact size to easily fit in my tote bag. But it's not overly bulky, so I was okay with the size. However, the first time I used the umbrella there was a gust of wind that immediately turned the edges up, which was disappointing. The auto-open is great; however, the umbrella does not auto-close and is actually quite hard to push in, especially while trying to use one hand.

The wife: I used this during my summer trip to Japan to keep the blazing sun off of me. It's light and easy to open & close. Nice small size when closed.

bought this for my daughter to keep in her school backpack and thought that it would be more compact in size due to the "MINI" in its name. Is sort of a standard size when closed but she is happy that it is an auto open/close.

Will be ordering another one soon.

Although it's nothing fancy to look at, this thing is great. It's compact enough that I can keep it in my purse, but large enough that it actually covers you properly. The push button open and close feature is great when your hands are full. The navy color is very neutral which means my boyfriend has no problem stealing it.

Feels sturdy and holds up in wind. Opens quickly and easily but the spring makes it harder to close and I have to use both hands to close it.

Used it every time it has rained which is about 5 or 6 times. Does the job. Nice and White like I wanted
