Bugzz @ Soake Kids PVC umbrella (Frog)

This is a very Good! quality umbrella. I got this a few months back when we were having a lot of heavy rain and wind for my son to use. It is a nice dome shape to keep the rain and the wind out of his face. He has used it in very heavy rain and windy weather and it kept him dry. The umbrella handle is curved making it easy for him to hold with both hands and Because of the shape of the handle and the umbrella he doesn’t have to fight the wind to keep a hold of it or fear being whisked up in to the air like Mary poppins. Inside it is made of plastic which I was really pleased about as all previous ones that have been metal have rusted and left unsightly orange marks where as this one hasn’t. I am very pleased with this umbrella and glad I spent a little extra to get a good quality one which I know will last my little boy long time.

The first time I tested the umbrella before giving it to the child it was intended for, I got a fold of skin on one finger pinched between the shaft and the slider that moves up and down the shaft. This happened several more times when I was investigating how it had happened. It is due to a combination of an overly-strong spring reaction when closing the umbrella and a relatively large gap between the hole in the bottom of the slider and the shaft. In addition to the large gap, the bottom of the slider is poorly finished and the rough surface "grabs" the skin on a finger that is inadvertently placed on the shaft below the slider rather than wholly on the slider and drags the fold of skin into the gap. Completely unsuitable for a young child and in my opinion shouldn't be allowed on sale. I threw it straight in the bin without wasting time on sending it back.

This is so so cute and really great quality. My two boys LOVE it. They are young and play quite roughly with it but it's strong and durable. It's a great size and definitely does the job on a rainy day. I'd give 5 stars but when it arrived at my house it was coated in thick dust. It was a Christmas gift so I was glad that I didn't order it gift wrapped as I had to thoroughly wash it before giving it to my son.

Was expecting a sort of dark blue and red umbrella and actually got one that was turquoise and kind of pinky instead. Would return but my son doesn't seem fussed and loves it!

We actually had this umbrella before but it go caught in a patio door incident and developed a rather large hole that wasn't keeping the rain out any longer. My son loved it so much as able open it himself, see through and also the dinosaur design was a winner

Colours not as photo, turquoise and pink, not red and blue so more for a girl,Very very strong petrol smell so can’t use it as makes toddlers eyes water.

Can't rate these highly enough! A great, good quality kids umbrella. Manageable for kids. No sharp bits. Can see through them. Just great

My son loves this brolly. It's great in windy weather as it provides a good done over him.
