Blunt Classic, Charcoal, One Size

For the price, I thought this would be the last umbrella I would ever buy. Unfortunately, that was not the case. One good thing is that it lasted 4 years, which is why I gave it 2 stars, but I expected more. The weak point is that the shaft is made up of 2 sections. I had mine in the car and one day I go to get it and the shaft had separated. How? I have no idea. I tried to put it back together but the metal is very thing and deforms easily so it was impossible. I contacted the company and showed them what happened but since the warranty was expired there was nothing they could do.

This umbrella is incredibly sturdy. This is probably the best umbrella Ive ever wielded, and its look reflects this. It is large when folded up because it doesnt telescope, but who cares? The only reason I would want a folding umbrella would be to put in a bag, but I wouldnt bring an umbrella if I didnt need it, and I wouldnt stick a wet umbrella in a bag, so you might as well carry a larger umbrella that you can share, thatll actually keep you dry, and wont break on you after two uses.

Though this umbrella isnt the cheapest, you get what you paid for. Ive had a Blunt umbrella before but lost it so I bought the Classic black. This umbrella holds its own during high winds and its sleek and stylish. It being stylish isnt so important but its just a nice plus. I highly recommend this umbrella as it lasts a long time.

Great umbrella. I love mine, have had it for 6 months or so now.

The umbrella works fairly well but it is expensive. It is light and balanced. I havent had to use it under windy conditions yet. The part that was disappointing is that the pictures clearly showed that a matching sleeve with a carry strap came with it. The product showed up without the strap. Customer service has been trying to get a sleeve sent for nearly 4 weeks. The whole thing has been dissapointing consider the premium you pay for the umbrella.

Very clean and dressy looking and I was concerned it might not not be as indestructible as I was hoping. In fact a high wind advisory storm came through. It blew rain almost sideways. The Blunt umbrella held up excellently!

I bought a Blunt umbrella for my wife a year or so back, and it is far and away the best umbrella she (and I) have ever used. Worth every penny! I mean it . . .

It is large, sturdy, handles both rain and wind well, and looks nice, too. What more is there to say?

On Day 2 of use, the handle fell off upon opening. It FELL off. This was not an occasion where I could tell that I was exerting too much force. I was exerting the minimal force necessary to OPEN the umbrella (i.e. use it). And it FELL off. This was not an occasion where a large gust of wind caught the umbrella and the sudden exertion of meteorological conditions brought the umbrella to its breaking point. No. This was opening the umbrella. And it FELL off. If I could simply snap the handle back on, I would still return the umbrella but I would likely chalk it up to being a defective unit. However, the handle could not even be snapped back into place. Instead, the handles absence revealed the shoddy construction that I suspect is consistent among all units. This umbrella is truly overpriced garbage. It most certainly is not Strong & ... Built to Last as represented. The merchants representation that it is Light, however, is accurate. Probably because it is made of garbage. Make sure to save the box to make the return easier.

I cannot believe how great this umbrella is. The first time I used it, I watched as the person in front of me had their umbrella turn inside out from the wind while I had no problems at all.
