Re: How many things can you say about an umbrella?

I don't think I'd want an inside out umbrella.  I love my Totes umbrella.  I just leave it open in my garage until it dries.

Re: How many things can you say about an umbrella?

Well before QVC started offering these, a more expensive (and probably better made) similar umbrellawas being advertised online and I watched the videos on it.

 

The idea sounds good, and if it works perfectly every time (and the person is able to use it deftly and quickly every time) it would be good for getting in and out of your car; other than that I don't see how it's hugely better. And if you weren't quick with it or were a bit clumsy with it you'd get just as wet as ever and/or pour all that water onto your lap, your feet, the seat, your purse, etc. I decided No at that time.

 

These days I just wear a coat with a hood, and stay mostly dry getting in and out; I save umbrellas for walking distances.

@Shanus  Gads.  Then on a regular channel commercial there he is hawking that pillow again.

You can't escape My Pillow!!!!  It's like the Walking Dead.  It's always there-waiting to come after you.  LOL

 

Now I'm hearing "Umbrella" by Train in my head.  LOL

I don't know.  How many times can a poster start a thread to complain about something?

That's my feeling.  Dumping an umbrella full of water all over myself is more likely than safely tilting it somewhere appropriate at the right time.  No thanks.
