Balios Prestige Travel Umbrella vs Davek Elite

This one is like a heavy duty tactical umbrella. The quality is apparent and the materials make it feel like high end. I am sure it will last for many years. I will update after testing it in the wind

This is a good umbrella--it may well be a great umbrella. large, windproof--exceeds specs for the job. Up there well in range of classic British models but made in New York. Looks good too! I wanted something expensive enough that I would be disinclined to lose it or forget it--this certainly is

It was fast, efficient, and the representative that contacted me was very nice and professional. I've been using this umbrella for almost a month now and NO PROBLEMS. One happy customer now with a working, comfortable and good-looking umbrella! Would order again. (PS: mom still loves hers) --original review-- After hunting for a stylish umbrella and reading lots of reviews I decided to purchase this Balios Travel Umbrella

You spend thousands on your wardrobe. Perhaps it’s time you upgraded your umbrella. Just be smart about it. The guarantee doesn’t mean Davek will replace your umbrella if you leave it with the fine driver of a taxicab

Took away a star because no wristlet in umbrella. Only on the cover, which sometimes I put away! Difficult when having to carry several items in your hand.

Other reviews mention it, and it’s spot on. One day of use. Umbrella slips off the chair and the ferrule pops out. Overall not bad, and I was lucky enough to catch it so I can glue it back in when I get home, but for this price I’m really disappointed

I'm constantly looking for "unflippable" umbrellas. I'm tired of cheap umbrellas being completely ruined the first time a wind gust comes. I usually go for the Gustbuster, but I was disappointed in the quality of my last GustBuster so I tried the Balios. Not much for color/design choices

I bought a babyjogger city elite when I had my first kid 11 years ago, and it's handled everything the next 3 kids could throw at it for more than a decade. we used the thing whenever we needed max comfort/capability/storage and it was the MVP of every theme park trip / vacation / intl trip for more than 10 years.

It is Ok at best. The "real wood" handle is 100% plastic, so is the "metal". Better off going with a cheaper model since it not wood or of higher quality compared to other brands.

I bought this as a gift for someone who appreciates premium products which are value for money. This is a great buy, built to last, as they say.
