BLUNT Umbrellas XS Metro REVIEW

[@kikayei]

You wasted 2/3 of your review on the packaging and manual, mate. Get straight to the point next time.

[@scandinut]

its nice to see something unusual like an umbrella being reviewed. let us know what its like once youve used it a bit in high winds. the way the weather has been in the uk for the last few days, you will have plenty of oppertunity lol

[@DevonReviewer]

+weywoodblade Yep it is pretty blowy here, car is in the garage being repaired so will probably get to audition it today.

@@DevonReviewer Did you ever get to check it? Would really like to know how it handles strong wind.

[@Jester123ish]

Any updates on this as to how it stands up to wind? Does it flip?

[@PaulMacDonaldA06]

They do flip, but they don't break. If you hold it in the right direction, it won't flip either. Fortunately, that's usually the same direction you need to hold it to keep dry (into the wind). I've had mine flip inside out a few times, but a quick jab with it brings it right back. I've also used it in very strong wind before. It was quite fun watching other people's umbrellas break and tear themselves apart, from the safety of my Blunt. The only thing negative I can say is that the XS Metro is rather small. Looks and feels big, but out in the rain, when your legs are getting soaked, you kinda want more coverage. XS Metro isn't their biggest, though, so I think the next time I buy an umbrella, I'll go for one of their bigger ones. I've had my XS Metro since 2016 though, and it's showing no signs of giving up any time soon.

Ugly umbrellas. I also have a Blunt Lite, that's ugly also, because whatever color you buy, it has gray edges.

[@garbonomics]

Damn it’s not self closing. Almost bought it but that’s a major let down for me. If it popped open and closed up with the same button I’d be sold.
