    '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
