Will this work in really strong winds. When I buy 5 pound umbrellas they turn inside out and break at slightest wind thanks

I had an occasion in April when we had in excess of extreme weather conditions ie strong winds. The Blunt umbrella I had (the Metro), wasn't able to cope, and snapped in two places inside the skeleton. Luckily Blunt offered a two year guarantee, it was able to be repaired- being returned within ten days. You must remember upon purchase to register the umbrella.

Is the strength of the umbrella in wind worth the money thankd

The strength of the umbrella was one of my considerations. My previous Blunt umbrella proved extremely robust compared other manufacturers I have tried. The mechanism over several years use did loosen but remained reliable until lost. Tried some cheaper umbrellas but last year bought another Blunt.

Does this arrive in discrete packaging ? (It's been ordered as a gift)

Yes, there is nice packaging. Kind Regards

High Quality

I decided to buy this as I have always had bad experiences with umbrellas. They invariably fold inside out in the lightest of winds and break easily. So I decided to splash out and buy this having read 'best buy' reviews. You can often tell from the packaging if the product is quality and this does not disappoint. The umbrella looks fantastic in bright orange and is manufactured to a high quality being both sturdy and reasonably light. Each umbrella has its own unique production number printed on it and you use this when registering its 2 year guarantee. If, as expected it lasts at least 2 years it will prove to be excellent value.

Kid size umbrella

I always wanted to buy one of blunt umbrella and i was excited to have reason to buy one now as im planning to travel so need small but good umbrella. Its says that it is 100cm, till now i used umbrella that is 97cm and it was enough for two people, so 100cm should be more then enough, but 100cm on this umbrella is from stem end to another stem end, in other words size between stems is only 82cm.So - quality 5*Discription 1*

Poor quality

After a few weeks of use the carry strap came loose and broke. Blunt in fairness did carry out a repair, but within a few weeks the strap broke again.These umbrellas are simply not worth the price tag.

An umbrella for life, worth the price tag

I’ve had so many umbrellas over the years, all of which have broken fairly quickly. Not this one. It can really withstand the wind. It’s expensive but cheaper than buying a lots of cheap ones. An umbrella to last a lifetime, unless you leave it on the train.
