What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Umbrella is durable and easy to use. It packs up small and looks smart.
Really impressed with the product. They were purchased for 13, 17 and 20 pounds. The opening/closing mechanism is alright and they keep the rain away.
It looks nice, opens and closes easily. Handy one handed popup-popdown mechanism. Once opened it is bit unstable but it does the job.
Cons
Strong gust of wind rendered the opening/closing mechanism dysfunctional. Only about third or fourth time opening. The ribs of the umbrella are not as described, it seems very weak and fragile.
Build quality is poor, it's very wobbly and rattles all the time. The locking mechanism at the bottom in the handle is rubbish. Not to mention the rust and broken steel parts.
Highlights
Quality
The quality of the umbrella is very good.
The build quality is good, opening/closing mechanism is alright and they keep the rain away.
Price
A bit expensive but justifies its price.
Competitiveness
Smaller than a golf brolly obviously so it's only going to shelter one person.
Less sturdy than a larger brolly, but with less windage and the inbuilt vents it should survive a strongish wind.

The umbrella seemed sturdy on arrival but one of the ribs broke after just a few times of using possibly due to a manufacturing fault

The ribs last longer than many umbrellas due to the carbon fiber parts but the remaining metal parts can still rust and eventually fail
