City Umbrella with Stormwear™ & Windtech™

Easy to operate and appears very well made

This is about the best umbrella I have bought, although it is a bit heavy. Have the umbrella up quickly with a touch of a button.Also good coverage. Great umbrella; Would recommend it.

This purchase is a replacement for the one which got accidentally trapped in a door & broke. I had no hesitation in buying the same item which is compact yet perfect for purpose.

Just picked up one of these in my local store. Got home and opened it up to see what it was like. The whole length of the stem was covered in oil, which I got all over my hands. Just lucky I didn’t wait until I was out to use it for the first time as wouldn’t have been able to wash it off. Umbrella has gone straight in the bin.

After the second or third time of use, I pressed the button to open the umbrella and found that the automatic unlocking mechanism was jammed and I was unable to open the umbrella. I unscrewed and removed the handle (watch out for a small spring on removing the handle) and, after a bit of poking around, was able to free the mechanism. However, two or three uses later, the mechanism failed again, this time permanently. I won't buy an umbrella from M&S again.

Poor quality have had to exchange it 3 times. Struts keep breaking.

I've now owned two of these – the first lasted several weeks before failing; the second only three. In both cases the auto-open mechanism failed when a length of elastic came out of the mechanism. After much fiddling I was able to get the first umbrella to function to some extent for a while, but it eventually jammed completely and I was unable to collapse the umbrella. The same thing happened with the second, except it is jammed in the closed position this time. Given the price of these items, I'd really expect them to last more than a few weeks of light occasional use.

I keep ordering this umbrella every time i lose it because it is the best to handle rain during windy weather

Bought this umbrella due to it's compact size and auto up and down mechanism, at a press of a button. A month in and the auto up works fine, but now rather annoyingly, pressing the button to bring the umbrella down has stopped working. I know you can just pull the spring loaded umbrella back down, but it's really cumbersome when you are carrying other items!

Bought this gents Umbrella instead of a woman’s it looks and feels very Strong not used it as yet good price especially with 20% off

Size is kinda ok, cool color, not too compact, not big enough to cover tall users fully. Love the u-shape hoke at the end, good and comfortable grip.

Bought for my son to take to work, not used it yet but it feels sturdy and a good size when open.

Christmas present for our son but my husband has one and it has proved very durable if a bit heavy

Bought this for son to use to and from work. He was very pleased, quality excellent, much better than his previous umbrella that blew inside out all the time. Masculine style so he doesn't mind using it.
