An automatic mechanism and compact design add to this brolly’s appeal, with selected options offering a £4 saving for shoppers preparing for autumn showers
Autumn is really kicking in, and the showery weather is a shock to the system after such a lovely summer.
Getting outside for some fresh air is appealing, but unpredictable weather with strong winds and heavy showers can make it a challenge.
It means we’re a nation of brolly buyers. The humble umbrella is an important accessory for us Brits, helping us salvage a walk or shopping trip when the heavens open.
It’s perfectly possible to buy a brolly for a fiver from a supermarket, but price alone won’t tell you how well it will cope when the wind picks up.


A sturdier design needn’t break the bank, either. We’ve spotted a Tumella windproof umbrella listed on Amazon for £15.99, down from £19.99. That is a £4 saving, or 20%.
Tumella says the Dutch company was founded with a mission to tackle familiar umbrella frustrations, including bent frames and torn fabric.
Its compact windproof design is intended to combine strength with portability, offering something you can carry around without feeling as though you’ve packed a golf umbrella for a trip to the shops.
The Tumella umbrella comes in an array of colours, although prices vary between options. There are also bundles for anyone considering buying more than one, so compare the total before ordering.
Tumella also advertises a lifetime replacement promise, with the terms worth checking for what is covered and how to claim.
For anyone whose current brolly has already surrendered to the autumn weather, the £15.99 option could be a reasonably priced replacement. Just check that your chosen colour carries the discount before heading to checkout.
