Luxury Automatic Folding Travel Umbrella with High Grain Natural Wood Handle & Black Double Vented 300T Water Repellent Canopy. Auto Open/Close, Lightweight, Handy Size for Men/Women. Classic brolly!

I bought this umbrella a couple of years ago because I walk 3 miles home each day and in this country that means getting rained on (a lot!) and recently was furious with myself for leaving it on the bus - hence the reorder .Some people may think its a bit pricey but personally over the years I've probably spent more on flimsy cheap ones and even medium priced ones that are not that good . This Brolly is such good quality - it doesn't blow inside out thanks to the air gaps , the spokes do not bend/break and make it out of shape, the push button mechanism to open the brolly is easy and works every time and it dries quickly - if you buy this brolly you will never buy another - unless you're silly like me and leave it on the bus !!!

Immediate delivery, well packed, smart and conveniently small, this is a splendid brolly. It works like a dream, opening in a slick click of a button and deploying an excellent canopy, rain and wind-proof, with vents. I'm delighted with it, not least because it has a strong, comfortable, traditional handle that makes it so easy to hold. Strongly recommended for anyone who needs a compact umbrella!

Bought as a Christmas present for hubby who had requested a sturdy, good quality business umbrella with a wooden handle. So I researched and found this one to have the best reviews. Being in the UK, he's used it several times and is very pleased with the look, the feel and the good job it does. Fits in his briefcase when dry. The only "negative" he's mentioned having to fold it back up and put it back in his briefcase when it's wet. Is there nothing out there, like a see through PVC cover that fits over it to keep it from wetting everything else it comes into contact with in his briefcase? If he's coming home or going straight to a hotel with it, he just puts it up and in leaves it in the bath to dry out. So, only a problem when he's still in transit. This applies to all umrellas and not just this one though. I personally can't stand umbrellas and never use one. I've bought hundreds for others which they've lost, left behind, broken etc, but probably because they've been a lot cheaper. This one seems very sturdy and I hope stands the test of time. Quality is certainly much better than any I've bought and that's apparent when looking at how it's put together.

I've been through many umbrella's over the years, with Fulton and upper-end M&S as my benchmark at £20-£30. Open/Close action is as good, if not better than the aforementioned, and it's no harder to 're-load' than these options either. The only cheaper feeling part is the plastic collar with the push button on it, but this is nitpicking at this stage, and would only be an issue if the chrome wears off. Otherwise this feels like a quality umbrella, appropriately priced, and I hope it lasts (and I don't lose it!). So far, I'd choose it again over similarly priced alternativesThe only thing I don't like is the white text branding on the canopy strap, which is not shown in the product images and cheapens the overall look

I've been working in Scotland, so I need a serious brolly that wouldn't keel over at the slightest breeze.Having done the usual cheaper suspects on Amazon and found them all wanting I decided to break out of the "he who buys cheap buys twice" cycle and hit the quality end of the market (but not too hard - there are brollies on here that cost more than my Samsonite luggage!?).I have to say this far I'm impressed. I have managed to flip it once, but only in wind that no normal person would hold a brolly and it recovers well.The auto open & close is a welcome bonus when I've got luggage in tow, but it does make it harder to fold up.The main thing I like is how quickly it dries; I usually left my cheaper ones hanging / standing until lunchtime, but with a good shake this one is dry enough to go back into my laptop bag by 10.

This umbrella has kept me dry on a few rainy days now. The double-vented canopy did not leak. I haven't used the umbrella on a windy day yet. The automatic mechanism is quite powerful but I do not have difficulty pushing it closed. (I am a middle-aged man.) The handle looks nice and does seem to be some kind of wood. I am satisfied that the product matches the £25 price point.I am writing this review because the seller asked very politely.

This is a great umbrella with a real luxury feel to it. This is because it's made from quality materials, nice smooth wooden handle and metal shaft. I particularly like how the metal button for opening is rounded and flush. For the size of the umbrella the canopy is a really good size and perfect for everyday use. It may cost more than some umbrellas but it's worth it, we're talking value here because you get a really smart product for the price.

Very nice looking umbrella, looks fairly professional, good quality in both the build and opening and closing mechanism. Automatically closed at the push of a button, however takes a bit of force to push the brollie end right down.Its fairly lightweight and compact when folded.Main downside to it is the fact that it flips inside out very easily at the slightest bit of wind, however it is durable and flexible so doesn't break when it does so.
