SoakeBoutique Plain Pagoda Stick Umbrella

Flimsy, glorified granny brolly that noticeably deviates in shape from the advertisement. This is due to the unfortunate fact that this is not a Soake umbrella, but rather a product by X-Brella, which can be purchased online for £11.75.Such a decietful transaction is appalling, and I would encourage everyone to cancel their orders.

I loved how this umbrella looked, gorgeous design, lightweight, it worked really well...at first. Then after only a few uses the rubber peeled away from the handle and last week (used it less than a dozen times) the umbrella stick snapped in half and in the bin it went. very disappointed, it wasn't even windy when it snapped, I just shook the rain off it before I went to close it and it snapped

Purchased this to replace another pagoda umbrella. This lacks all the graceful lines of the original, and instead of that classic curve at the top, this has a clunky angular tradition, see photos. It also feels flimsy, and looks cheaply made. Not reccomended

Handle is nicer than expected. great head turning piece. The tassel broke off the string today but I don't really need it. Works great for rain and sun. The additional spokes means the umbrella doesn't flip inside-out in the wind.

First time opening parasol it broke,poor quality, im very disappointed

Gorgeous 'walking' umbrella [not for strong wind or rain - get the golfing 'Gustbuster' for that!] with a mature, gothic design - you will look just divine, strolling in the rain, darlings!I also love the rubber molded handle - easier to grip and doesn't detatch like the crappy PU ones.

Different than others to look at because of the upper shape!..Nice and Very Strong.Bought two that will stand on telescopic poles in the garden, to cover some special plants.

This is lovely (and the pictures don't do it justice: it has a graceful moulded handle). I'm only dropping a star for the "matte" finish on the handle, which is peeling. It's not visible to others yet (and will eventually even out), but is just a design niggle.Otherwise: elegant and robust!
