‘The build quality is remarkable considering the price point, making it a very sturdy umbrella.’
A windproof umbrella is being hailed as ‘the strongest available’, with customers saying it ‘really works’. The TUMELLA Strongest Windproof Travel Umbrella was originally £29.99 on Amazon, but is now down to £17.99 for a limited time. You can also get the umbrella for £22.83 on eBay. On Amazon, the umbrella comes in several colours with varying discounts, including night sky, floral, yellow, and blue sky.
At the time of writing, the black umbrella was cheapest. The umbrella is designed to be strong enough to withstand strong winds. It’s got a double-vented canopy that can reportedly withstand winds of 70mph. The umbrella has automatic opening and closing with a button. On Amazon, the brand says: “Tired of getting soaked in the rain due to a broken or bent umbrella?
“No more! Tumella is in a class of its own. We offer you the sturdiest, easiest to use, and most windproof umbrella with automatic open/close. Enabling effortless one-handed use and a stunning selection of natural, elegant designs intended to make you smile in the rain.”

Alternatively, you can try the Mountain Warehouse Windproof Umbrella, which is £16.99. It comes in both black and blue, and is made from shock-resistant fibreglass.
Elsewhere, there’s the Profilter Umbrella for £11.99 at Decathlon. The umbrella comes in four different colours and has UV protection.
The TUMELLA umbrella has 4.5 stars from 4,170 reviews. One person said: “It works! I was caught on a windy day in the rain and the umbrella did a good job of keeping me dry and not turning inside out, it was fine. I’ve not had it that long so I can’t comment on its longevity but it does appear to be of good quality. It’s compact, lightweight, and easy to use, although it does take a little oomph to get it closed after I’ve pushed the button. I also like the fact that the velcro tie used when closing up the umbrella is actually big enough to comfortably go round it rather than being barely big enough like other umbrellas I’ve had; so it’s much easier to put away.”

Another wrote: “This really is a great umbrella. The push button open and close function works every time, making it extremely easy to deploy and then put away. It comes with a sleeve to keep it in and fits nicely in a small backpack or bag. The build quality is remarkable considering the price point, making it a very sturdy umbrella. It also comes with a lifetime warranty, so how could it be any better! Don’t hesitate, buy one now. You wont regret it!”
“Bought for granddaughter to keep in her school backpack,” a third said. “It is compact and great for unexpected weather conditions. As it is stormproof, it should be perfect. It came with a plastic bag to keep it in, which I wasn’t expecting. The package came with a lovely letter from the supplier and confirmed that a replacement will be supplied if needed.”
However, a few people complained the umbrella wasn’t as windproof as it claimed to be. One disappointed customer said: “Windproof umbrella? The first time I used it and I was walking along and there was a slight wind and it immediately turned inside out and then a breeze caused it to turn inside out again! It did go back in but what’s the point of having a windproof umbrella? If at the slightest bit of wind it spends most of the time inside out and you spend most of your time putting it back in and getting wet!”
But another happy shopper penned: “Only used it once so far but was very wet and very windy and this brolly was great. Very sturdy.”
