DavekDAVEK ELITE UMBRELLA (Classic Black) - Quality Cane Umbrella with Automatic Open, Strong & Windproof

Solid. High quality construction. Nothing wobbly or half baked...these folks are serious about their umbrellas!

Holds up great in windy rainy weather.

I've been looking for an upscale umbrella, one that functions well and looks good doing it...suitable for casual weekend outings, executive retreats, suit and tie walkabouts, and has the technical features to withstand a good bit of wind with the rain. Some of the high-end designer umbrellas look like an advertising billboard; definitely not what I was looking for. I especially like the leather and polished metal handle on this product, and its classic canopy shape. Having been caught in a downpour with a lower quality umbrella following a business meeting, I vowed to seriously upgrade. I went all-in, and also purchased a Davek Duet umbrella for travel to wet, windy, western Europe in the winter, and a Davek Solo as a gift.

One of the ribs broken just after a few uses. Try to contact the company for a few times. The response was swift for the 1st contact : The company had encouraged me to follow the company’s “generous “ replacement policy, of which I did. However, after paying the delivery fee for the replacement, I got nothing in return. After waiting for a month, I tried to contact the company again. However, no response has been received ever. Very disappointed!….

It looks good and will hopefully serve it’s purpose

What's not to like? Yes it seems like a lot of cash for an umbrella. But when you hold this one and operate it you can see the quality. The weave is so tight on the arch that in the rain it sounds like the water is hitting a soft shield. It's sturdy and if you care for it I would say at least a good 10 years of use wouldn't be an issue if you use it's cover and take care of it. So that's a little over 10 dollars a year! Or you can get a mc umbrella and be safe when it's gets shredded by the wind or the arms break off.

Although I haven't used the warranty, every umbrella comes with a 50 percent off on your next purchase meaning the next umbrella you get is only 75 USD. I definitely think its worth 75 usd but not 160 however with the addition of their "lifetime warranty" it may be very worth the 160 usd. I haven't used the lifetime warranty yet but I hope they will honor it when I break mine in a couple of years.

Liked 👍. Rain, but the rain ceased on the southwest coast of California 🤔 would you not imagine! But when it rains again I am prepared. 😎
