Finally I have a reasonably priced umbrella that stands up to heavy wind and rain where the majority of other umbrellas don’t and you just end up buying new ones all the time.
I have used many brands of umbrellas over the years
Repel umbrellas come out tops both in terms of build quality and durability
I bought two umbrellas in 2020 and they are are still functional
I try to review products at end of life, as most reviews occur earlier. This umbrella was strong in wind but after about 18 months it started to leak and then one of the arms snapped.
Works well, and its small and compact so easy to take with you when travelling. Its a balance of small and compact and therefore easy to transport against not being as wide when its heavy rain to cover most of your body.
Overall this is a good, sturdy umbrella. Yet to test it in windy weather. But heavy and solid build. Very easy to open. The only thing is that I really struggle with closing it and I’m ways fidgeting and worrying that I’m pushing too hard/incorrectly and it would break.
This is a sturdy rather than lightweight umbrella, and it performed very well for three years, but then it developed a fault. Although it came with a lifetime guarantee my expectations were low, but I contacted the seller with purchase details and they replaced it with a brand new one which arrived within a week. Great service, and they mean what they say about the guarantee!
Good umbrella! Very easy to use with one hand. I find it very compact and light, you can open it and close it from a button and it’s very convenient to fit in a bag or briefcase.
It dries out pretty quick and honestly, it’s pretty sturdy in strong winds
I first purchased my umbrella back in 2023 based on reviews. I wanted a reliable umbrella and this seemed to be what I was looking for. I was not disappointed! It has been a great brolly. It was only recently that a big gust of wind blew it inside out which was a first. Unfortunately it did damage my brolly. I contacted customer services who were prompt and very helpful. I am pleased to say that I am now the proud owner of a free replacement umbrella. Thank you! I would highly recommend.
I have used the umbrella in windy conditions and just wet conditions and it holds up well.
If it’s really heavy rain your legs and feet will still get wet as I found out whilst using it in the first week, but in light to moderate rain it does work well.
It’s sturdy in the wind and when you get a gust it will fold slightly if pointed towards the wind, I have not had it invert on me as I always try to point it against the wind.
Overall a good compact umbrella perfect for in the car or travelling by bus train etc.
Have bought this as a present so it hasn’t been tested in either the rain or wind yet. It is however a smashing umbrella- good size, great colour, well made and looks like it’s gonna do it’s job well. Have given 4 stars opposed to 5 because it’s a little heavier and longer ( when down) than I was originally looking for.
Still think I’m gonna order myself one though- that good.
These are the best umbrellas you’ll ever get and it’s really nice to see that a company would care about building such great products in a line that usually is littered with single use garbage.
I bought one of these when I was tired of “single use” umbrellas. It broke, I tried their warranty, they sent me a new one no questions asked. This umbrella has then followed me for years of travel in really trying weather situations. Never let me down once.
It was so good that I was basically keeping it for myself until I decided to just get a bunch of these (got 4 now) after more “single use” umbrellas my family got died.
You won’t look back. Umbrellas do matter, and these aren’t more expensive, they are actually cheaper. Simply because you won’t replace it every 6 months on the first cloud fart. And it’ll be working for you when you need it.
This umbrella definitely fit the bill. It’s compact and strong. It hasn’t turned inside out in bad weather for me to this date, and I live in a very wet and windy part of the UK. It’s easy to put up at the press of a button, though slightly fiddlier to put down. It has a nice aesthetic, I love the yellow, and it comes with a cover, but to be honest, it’s so fiddly to put on, I rarely do. It’s a decide size; it will comfortably fit two underneath, which is what I expected for a compact umbrella. All in all it performs its job.
I’ve been slightly disappointed to discover some rust forming on the underside of the umbrella, around the metal, but fortunately it hasn’t interfered with its functioning.
