Blunt Classic, Charcoal, One Size

This thing is a tank. So we’ll made. Just the right size. Not as big as a golf umbrella, but bigger than a normal size. It’s super sturdy, looks good, and works great.

A very well designed umbrella. Ive been looking for an umbrella for some time that has plastic coated support ends because the round beaded metal ends mark up automobile roof and door paint when getting in and out of your car. The BLUNT umbrella has ends that are, well, blunt—there are no protruding metal or plastic ends because there are no support ends. This umbrella also has the fastest drying material Ive ever seen. I got out of my car the other day, opened this umbrella, hit it with my blower for a minute and it was dry enough to put away in my car. Ive also left it to dry by itself and I would estimate it was fully dry in less than 10 minutes—astounding. The only feature Id like is push-button opening, however, with an umbrella of this size, I guess that would require a very heavy spring.

Extremely well constructed. It seemed extravagent to pay this much for an umbrella but I was tired to sending other brands to the landfill. Just big enough for two in a pinch and great coverage for one. Provides great confidence during really windy and wet days. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quality product that is built to last.

I originally thought I had a lemon as this umbrella wouldnt stay open. I was worried that I would have to deal with Blunts customer service which hasnt received great reviews. So one day, I just got kind of annoyed with it, and rapidly OpenCloseOpenCloseOpenCloseOpenClosed it, and then it just stayed open and behaved properly after that. So at best, I got a great umbrella. At worst, I got an umbrella who learned not to mess with me, but may be planning to soak me one day.

This is one of the sturdiest, best manufactured, best quality umbrella I have ever owned. Ive had a bunch of cheapie $12.00 umbrellas, most have been broken from weather, bad rides in the car, etc. The fabric is fully flexible, the metal and plastic parts are sturdy. Fully recommend this.

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

This is a nice umbrella. It is clear some work went into the design, and I was drawn in by the claims of meticulous engineering and I dont doubt that the shape and structure are well thought out for an umbrella. But this design is betrayed by poor use of material. The struts (I think correct term is ribs based on some googling) are made of a stiff plastic, which gave me pause when I first opened it. It worked very well for the first few rains. However, recently I opened it to see the plastic hinges near the top of the umbrella ribs had snapped. Considering it just leaned against the wall when it wasnt in use, this was strange. Given the price of this umbrella I am very disappointed in the material quality despite seemingly good design. I really doubt this is a fluke in my umbrella, and I think I will buy umbrellas that do not make load bearing components out of plastic. Maybe Blunt has a line with metal construction?

This was a great umbrella, but I only used it about 6 times and now it wont stay open by itself.

Umbrella looked promising, until I saw that every stretcher was snapped off. The part you use to open it wasnt even connected. Not sure how many of these get sent out like this, but it seems like it is a lot more than it should be. The durability of these umbrellas seem questionable and I wonder if many buyers will change their outlook after a year of use.

Everything I heard was true. This thing is built to withstand a tornado. Nice looking too.
