Inward folding umbrella. An umbrella, on the contrary, what kind of animal is it? Review of Bradex Antiumbrella, Eureka Umbrella and UpBrella. Main features of Antiumbrellas

The umbrella, on the contrary, is the know-how among umbrellas. That's why it is also called anti-umbrella. Its main feature is that, unlike ordinary umbrellas, it folds in reverse, that is, with the wet side inward. When folded, it will not wet either you or others, even if you get into a crowded vehicle.

The umbrella, on the contrary, has a large two-layer dome with a diameter of 110 cm. The covering consists of two layers of waterproof fabric, and the inner layer has an unusual color. It’s worth raising your eyes and instead of the gloomy sky, a bright flower has blossomed above you, or a window has opened into a clear starry sky. Monochrome and calm colors will appeal to men. Bright and unusual ones will appeal to women. A reliable cane and reinforced spokes allow the umbrella to withstand even very strong gusts of wind.

The anti-umbrella has an original folding design, thanks to which it can be placed vertically when folded on the knitting needles to dry.

Another feature of the smart umbrella is a very comfortable C-shaped handle. Now your hands are free if you need to reach for your wallet, ID card or phone in the rain.

Why is it worth buying a reverse umbrella?

  • Say NO! a wet umbrella on your lap, in transport, in a car.
  • Now you don’t need to think about where to put the wet umbrella - it stands on its own without support!
  • The newest ergonomic handle will free your palm for more important things - a bag, a stroller, a phone, a book.
  • Original colors will cheer you up in gloomy rainy weather.

Now, on the contrary, you can buy an umbrella in Moscow - in the Mademoiselle Bijou online store, official website

You also notice that it is simply impossible to stay dry with an ordinary umbrella. Even if you hold your hand correctly in the direction of the wind, trying to protect yourself from the splashes, you still won’t succeed. In addition to the discomfort that you will experience after such an outdoor shower, there is a risk of damaging your clothes and belongings.

When moisture remains on textiles, stains can form. Removing them later will take time and effort. If you have papers or gadgets in your bag, you also need to prevent it from getting wet, which is not always possible with a simple umbrella. Even if you buy a large rounded model, a lot depends on the mechanism itself.

I found a solution to this issue - using a smart umbrella “On the contrary”. This is a modern model that has changed my impressions and visions of true rain protection.

The name refers to the umbrella's closing mechanism. It turns out that the outside closes inside out. The automatic raising and lowering system will allow you to keep your appearance dry and neat even during heavy rainfall. If previously you had to step aside to open your umbrella, now you can avoid such difficulties. Due to the fact that it folds inward, you will not need additional space. You can even open it in an elevator where there is very little free space. At the same time, it is quite durable, which extends its service life. Remember broken spokes from strong winds? Now such unpleasant situations will not happen to you.

The closing mechanism is one button, which is very convenient. Just a second and you are under safe cover. You can also avoid splashing drops on the surface of the umbrella. The place where you close or open it will also remain dry.


It is possible to prevent the formation of a puddle or moisture due to the fact that it is the wet side of the product that is placed inside. The manufacturer has provided for the accumulation of water using a smart system. Moisture is retained in part of the waterproof canopy. When you decide to pour it out, just find a convenient place for it. Surrounding people and objects will not be wet from your movements with an umbrella.

Just one button is responsible for opening or closing the protective umbrella. The “On the contrary” model is suitable not only during rain, but also during hail, strong gusty winds, and snow. Now natural precipitation will not become an obstacle for you. Stay dry and protect your valuables with a smart umbrella that's always within reach.

In addition to the fact that you will always feel protected from precipitation, there are several other undeniable advantages of an umbrella. You will not have any problems with opening or closing the umbrella, because one button is responsible for this process. Reverse opening is more convenient and practical. The strength of the model is ensured by the aluminum frame. Unlike thin knitting needles, this frame prevents the umbrella from deforming during strong gusts of wind or rain. It will withstand even heavy hail, which is something that manufacturers of ordinary umbrellas cannot guarantee.

When open, it reaches a diameter of 105 centimeters. When you fold the umbrella, its size becomes only 30 cm. This is practical, because you can carry the umbrella in your bag and, if necessary, provide yourself with protection. When we ordered the “On the contrary” smart system, at first I was unfamiliar with its mechanism. After several heavy rains, I realized that I would never switch to ordinary models.

The cost of such an umbrella is only a thousand rubles. The best price is presented on the website of the official online store “Top Shop” here. This is a promotional offer, so it is better to order it right now.

Reverse folding umbrella, reverse umbrella, anti-umbrella - all these are the names of a new type of umbrella, which has been confidently winning the hearts of consumers over the past few years. How does an anti-umbrella differ from a regular umbrella?

Main features of Antiumbrellas

Thanks to a special mechanism, the outer side of the dome, which has already gotten wet in the rain, turns out to be inside when folding the umbrella, so the folded umbrella remains completely dry, and therefore does not cause discomfort either to its owner or his neighbors on public transport, cafes, etc. d. In addition, the “span of the spokes” of the anti-umbrella when opening and closing is significantly smaller than that of conventional umbrellas, allowing you to very quickly open and close the umbrella at the threshold of a room or vehicle. The owner of the anti-umbrella almost never gets wet.

Also, a common feature of anti-umbrellas is that they can stand on spoked legs, therefore, they can be neatly placed to dry and they will not take up much space in the office or hallway. And some models have a special handle in the shape of the letter “C”, which makes it easier to carry the umbrella both open and closed.

The cheapest reverse fold umbrella - Bradex Anti-umbrella

The cheapest, but also the scariest umbrella among its competitors. It has an open mechanism and one layer of protective fabric that is only under the spokes, not above them. Both of these significantly reduce the cost of this anti-umbrella from Bradex, but do not add a bit of beauty. You hardly want to take such a terrible umbrella, reminiscent of the half-gnawed corpse of an unfortunate bird, anywhere except to the dacha.

The color range is incredibly poor - Bradex produces its anti-umbrella only in burgundy. This umbrella, which folds in reverse, is greatly inferior in terms of handle ergonomics: it has a regular handle that cannot be “put on” on the hand, thereby freeing both hands (which the UpBrella umbrella boasts about.) The buyer will also not be pleased with the fact that the umbrella is relatively flat . This means that it will not protect very well from wind and rain.

Otherwise, this anti-umbrella differs little from its competitors: it works on the same principle of reverse folding, can also stand on spoked legs, and is made in China.

Among the advantages of the Anti-umbrella SU 0012 from Bradex, one can only note the price, which is the lowest among similar umbrellas that fold in reverse. It will also please you with its large dimensions: 114 cm in diameter, 85 cm in length. But the question is, are these advantages worth sacrificing beauty and convenience by saving 400-500 rubles? Hardly.

Smart umbrella - vice versa Eureka

A more thoughtful, aesthetically pleasing and, best of all, not far off in price, the umbrella is produced by the Eureka company. Two layers of fabric completely hide the knitting needles, allowing aesthetes to breathe a sigh of relief. The manufacturer claims that the nylon canopy on the outside is impregnated with a water-repellent solution, which will prevent raindrops from lingering on the umbrella for a long time. And on the inside there are special holes in the dome fabric for better drying of the anti-umbrella.

This umbrella also has an ergonomic C-shaped handle. These pens are designed so that you don’t have to constantly hold them with your palm, but can simply put them on your hand - this will free your hands to work with your smartphone or look for a travel ticket in your wallet.

The reverse folding mechanism allows you to quickly close the umbrella without staying in the rain for long

The tumbler umbrella, as the manufacturer affectionately calls it on its website, can also stand on spoked legs, so it can be conveniently dried without taking up much space in the office or apartment. Made in China.

Although the design of the Umbrella-On the contrary from Eureka is nicer than that of Bradex, there are only two colors. The outer side of the dome is black for both, the design is different only on the inside:

Reverse fold umbrella options Eureka "Times" and "Sky"

It is worth noting that the “Sky” option is also present in the line of another manufacturer of umbrellas that open in reverse, Upbrella.

Among the three umbrellas reviewed, the Eureka Converse Umbrella seems to be the most reasonable value for money. Particularly demanding buyers may be upset only by the relatively small selection of colors. True, buying an umbrella from Eureka can be difficult - due to the growing popularity of umbrellas that fold wet side inward, they are being snapped up like hot cakes due to their inexpensive cost.

UpBrella Reverse Umbrella

The UpBrella reverse folding umbrella, actively advertised on the Internet, is distinguished by a particularly wide selection of colors - there are more than 6 of them, to suit every taste, from monochromatic to abstract.

UpBrella also has an ergonomic handle in the shape of the letter “C”, has a two-layer fabric covering and hidden knitting needles, of which there are eight, like all previous umbrellas. The umbrella is made of water-repellent fabric to ensure maximum dryness when folded.

The dimensions of the UpBrella anti-umbrella are the largest among the competitors presented: 106 cm in diameter, 81 cm in length. The umbrella, according to the manufacturer, is made of higher quality and durable materials, which explains its relatively high cost. A nice bonus for this price is the semi-automatic mechanism. All you have to do is take the manufacturer’s word that the price justifies the quality.
