Robust, yet compact umbrella?
(lemmy.world)
A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
I live in an area with strong winds and I'm happy with Knirps, they can be found in both NA and EU.
More expensive than "regular" umbrellas, but they are built to last and are compact to boot.
Thank you, I'll probably go for the t200.
Anyone has used blunt umbrellas? I like the design and reviews seem to say they are sturdy too.
We were just not an hour or two ago having a natter about umbrellas after I bought a RAM umbrella (I've used their mounts, was surprised they did umbrellas) after years of living in the UK. Yes, I've never used an umbrella in all my days here.....
Along with the Blunt recommendation I also got from my expert across the pond poking me towards these too

The RAM one is fugging lethal if you point the opening mechanism towards someone's face, but is very satisfying and seems solid contrary to the reviews?
