Blunt Metro Travel Umbrella – 100cm 39'' Compact Windproof & Waterproof Umbrella, Lightweight & Durable, Perfect for Travel and Daily Use, Built to Last with Radial Tensioning System, 21 Color Options

We have a bunch of Blunt umbrellas in different sizes, and they seem to be just about indestructible. I've put name tags on them - they are a bit expensive to lose.

Brilliant umbrella that managed to withhold some harsh wind and rain on a trip, recently. Seamlessly goes up with a push of a button. Closing is a little clunky as the umbrella naturally resists as you push it down but not the end of the world.

This a good quality umbrella. Bought it for my partner and she's very happy with it. Likes the smooth opening action and the quality of the fabric and the pockets for the spikes.

A very style conscious umbrella. I had to return it though, as I live on a seafront and really need the strongest, stormproof umbrella there is! Anything else and over the years I've learnt to my cost, there is no point! I bought this umbrella as the seller had listed it as 'stormproof' but after I ordered it I went on the Blunt website and saw that this particular make isn't their stormproof version, (that's another one). This is however, sturdier than your normal everyday umbrella and definitely a cut above most. I knew however from the moment I opened it, that it would not suffice for my area, mainly from the feel but also how the spokes were attached to the fabric - I know I need sewn seams along the spokes and these were attached by quite flimsy looking pieces of cotton thread. I liked the design and the colour and especially the fact that the ends of the spokes are covered and incorporated into the 'canopy'. Nice and neat - and much safer for crowded areas - It is good for its target audience - It's in the name - Metro. Not for gale swept seafront roads. The packaging it comes in (tube) is also very stylish but I can't help feeling that all those design details have added to the rather high-price and not necessarily the practical function. A lovely 'lifestyle object' and definitely for style conscious urban dwellers who have to carry one of those clumsy objects called umbrellas!

Decent umbrella, although has yet to be tested in full British weather.Only disappointment was that the button only opens and not closes the item. Not sure that missing functionality was obvious from the notes.

Very well made and sturdy

Well made , nice design but will flip ( without damage ) in winds over 25 mph , definetly for one person only , otherwise quality product just the high MPH of testing does not stand up to real wind speeds .

Been living in Wales for a while, but ever umbrella I had brought break within 6 months to a year, so this has made life really easy with the wind; the weight isn't that bad and the closure of it is smooth and doesn't require too much strengthIt has gone inside out on one side but was easy to fix and didn't damage the metal or the springs, and with the knowledge of the 2-year guarantee is super relaxing for the price, so doesn't do well with wind directly entering the canopy, but other than that its wonderful with the winds on top of large hills in Wales, plus doesn't drip or seep though the material

I got this umbrella in the dark gray and found it to be really sleek and sturdy, so I'd definitely recommend. It's small enough to fit in your bag and comes with a nice sleeve to carry it with. Note that it's not huge and is probably more designed for one person, but you can fit two people reasonably. Note also that the button on the handle opens the umbrella but does not close it; you'll have to press the button toward the top of the umbrella (but under the covering) and pull it in, but this isn't a big deal and works just fine.I see that other people have noted issues about the quality and about the umbrella holding up in severe storms. I've used this umbrella in average, everyday rain storms with some fairly strong wind (I live in New England, and it does get pretty windy downtown during storms) and it's held up fine, but I haven't tested it in a super severe wind storm. I will say though that if it is extremely windy, I would probably expect most umbrellas to struggle except for those that are designed in the extreme to be super wind-proof, and those often come with their own concessions (mostly in terms of appearance). Yes you're paying more here, but admittedly I think a lot of that goes toward the sleek design and the quality materials. I'd say buy this umbrella if you want a sleek, attractive, somewhat fashion-forward umbrella that you'll be happy to pull out in front of your friends and colleagues on a day-to-day basis and that will withstand fairly strong winds, and then have a less attractive but super windproof umbrella in your closet for those really bad days.

Ich nutze den BLUNT Metro hauptsächlich bei Regen für meine längeren Gassigänge und bin wirklich begeistert.Besonders gefällt mir die leuchtend gelbe Farbe, denn sie sieht nicht nur toll aus, sondern sorgt auch dafür, dass man bei schlechtem Wetter und in der dunkleren Jahreszeit deutlich besser gesehen wird.Die Qualität ist überragend: Der Schirm wirkt äußerst hochwertig verarbeitet, die Stäbe sind sehr stabil und das gesamte Konstrukt macht einen ausgesprochen robusten Eindruck. Auch bei stärkerem Wind bleibt der Schirm zuverlässig in Form und vermittelt jederzeit ein sicheres Gefühl.Trotz seiner Stabilität ist der BLUNT Metro angenehm kompakt und lässt sich gut mitnehmen. Für mich die perfekte Kombination aus Funktionalität, Sicherheit und hochwertiger Verarbeitung.Ich habe den Schirm in zwei verschiedenen Farbe, nutze ihn seid ca. vier Jahren.Klare Kaufempfehlung – jeden Cent wert! 👍☔🐕

Non ho ancora avuto modo di provare l'ombrello. L'ordine è stato evaso con un po' di giorni di ritardo ma è arrivato regolarmente.Sull'oggetto in questione debbo dire che dopo aver seguito mille recensioni e video sulla rete mi ero fatto un'idea troppo alta e dal momento che l'ho avuto tra le mani ho dovuto ridimensionare il mio entusiasmo. L'ombrello appare sicuramente poderoso e ben strutturato. Come detto da altri utenti l'apertura della tela risulta di un diametro che credo non possa accontentare tanti di voi ma per ripararsi dalla pioggia per me può bastare. Magari tenendolo quasi attaccato al capo si può certamente raggiungere il massimo profitto. Mi ha deluso la potenza della molla di apertura. Mi sembra un po' deboluccia ma forse sono fatti così per evitare di far saltare il congegno dopo largo uso. L'apertura in molti casi va accompagnata o portata a compimento con il gesto della mano. Sulla sua presentazione generale ha avuto apprezzamenti da parte di amici che anche al tatto hanno avvertito la buona qualità dei materiali. E poi con il suo tubo nero, il celofan interno e ancora la sua fodera di protezione sembra di scartare qualcosa di davvero prezioso.
