Gustbuster Umbrellas
Overall this umbrella is of fair quality (3 out of 5 stars). The product
is designed well and performs more than adequately. It falls short,
however, of being a truly quality product for 3 reasons: the nylon used
for the umbrella is only suitable for light to medium rain (it would not
be adequate for heavy rain); part of the handle is painted plastic
instead of being full rubber and it is not truly golf-size (it is only
medium size).To make this umbrella worthy of 5 stars, totes needs to use
heavier duty nylon, construct the handle completely out of rubber (the
painted plastic is less durable and will degrade much quicker)and make
the opened size a bit closer to golf-size. The auto-open feature works
but does not have a precise feel to it. To end this review on a positive
note, the nylon cover is constructed of heavy duty nylon and is the
best umbrella cover I have ever seen (it fits perfectly, looks excellent
and is very durable). The securing strap is much wider than normal
which results in better stowing of the umbrella (with or without the
cover).In conclusion, this umbrella is decent and has some good features
but it definitely falls short of being a great product.
