'VERY SOLID AND NOT HEAVY'
Strengths:
Build standard is very solid.
Dense and durable covering material.
Weaknesses:
Now I'll get called a Korum tart :)
Overall:
Very impressed - It's not as heavy as some reviews say (But then, it's relative, right ? I'm no 'He-Man' but this fits in my quiver easily and is managable, no problem) - If you want something that holds up to strong winds and sudden gusts, then you do need something a little more sturdy. This brolly is solid and is great - And it comes with everything you need.

'FANTASTIC!'
Strengths:
It's like having a bivvy/small tent without the cost of either of them. Side panels are a great idea and give you much better protection than a normal umbrella, storm rods make it even more stable which is always good that should it get a bit windy you aren't sat holding onto it for fear it may do a mary poppins on you. Storm rods included along with heavy duty pegs.
Weaknesses:
Covering bag could do with a handle to make it easier to carry for those without a rod holdall with brolly section
Overall:
Great value, I'd never use a normal brolly again, can be bought for less than the rrp of £69 tho even this i think is a bargain as some brollys are as much or more. Yes this will make you feel like you're in your own little world or possibly a young boy again playing tents, superb piece of kit. Oh and I can't say the weight is an issue at all, it's not very heavy I managed to carry a rod holdall, korum deluxe chair, bait & tackle bag, bits bag and the brolly in one go with nothing but my arms and legs to get it from the car to the bank, though this may be a struggle for anyone under 6ft

'VERY NICE BUT HEAVY'
Strengths:
Very good protection, good Quality Fittings and materials, Fits in my quiver nicely, Good Pegs, rear located pole is a godsend.
Weaknesses:
Heavy, would be a pain to walk long distances, Not the easiest to put back into its bag
Overall:
Very good, look about reductions on price. Quality is great and had no problems using it. Pole re-location at the back is very useful, Ribs are not as thick as my Keenets Lite Shield Brolly but seem to do the job well, Pegs are of a good quality and twist in well. for
