  I bought the umbrella in the summer of 2019 for 50 euros, on a trip to Chios where the wind is very strong and makes it difficult for all umbrellas; this one did not withstand it. The pole of the umbrella bent and broke at the point of inclination, but the panels did not tear or get damaged, which are much thicker and more durable compared to other umbrellas. The pole was replaced with one of the same thickness and since then it has been used every summer without any problems; the fabric is of very good quality and the case is convenient. I would recommend it only for use with caution in the wind

  This review is about the colour: White

  I paid to get a quality product and unfortunately, on the third use, the wires bent just like in the photo of the comment above. I had a colorful one from Praktiker for half the price for over 5 years and it didn't have any issues. I can't say that I would recommend it. Other than that, it has a convenient case, good fabric, and stakes in the package, but what good are they to me with bent wires?

  Very expensive umbrella for nothing! I bought one for my own family on 12/7/2023 and another one for our friends' family on 13/7/2023. In the first week, at different times and places, both umbrellas bent their ribs from the wind. Supposedly, they have metal ribs and are durable, not easily broken by a little breeze! They were purchased from a well-known camping-sea store in Athens, and when I went there today with the product and the receipt as they asked me on the phone, I received the amazing response (without examining the problematic product) that the umbrella is not meant for the wind and they will not replace them. Having had umbrellas from Campus or TERRA for years, we have never experienced anything similar! And I believe that 2 out of 2 umbrellas is not a coincidence! Unfortunately, I am disappointed by the quality of HUPA, which you buy at a high price for its supposed good quality and, of course, the after-sale service!

  This review is about the colour: White

  The aforementioned umbrella from HUPA is the Ultrasol 200/10 and DOES NOT have a retractable mechanism, therefore reviews that mention a retractable mechanism refer to a different product. The umbrella stands out for its reinforced fabric compared to the usual thin ones, which does an excellent job of blocking the sun's rays even with all-day use. It is resistant to strong wind and overall it is a quality construction. Even its case has sturdy straps with reinforced stitching and a zipper along its length. It is lightweight and at the same time large enough to fit in a compact car (Audi A3, Opel Astra, etc.). However, in general, for an umbrella to withstand wind, no matter which one you choose, you will not have peace of mind unless you secure it in the sand. Personally, after trying different supports such as the water-filled base (the worst), the screws that screw into the sand, and ropes for additional support, I finally settled on the hammering stake: it is heavy enough without being unmanageable and thus shifts the center of gravity very low, effectively stabilizing the umbrella. Not even additional ropes and pegs are necessary. If you have a tight budget, it is better to divide it between a less expensive umbrella and this stake, rather than just buying the umbrella. Finally, regarding the bending of umbrellas, only those with straight aluminum ribs do not bend, however, they have significantly increased weight.

  We bought it last year and used it for 2 months every day in a place with air almost daily. In combination with the hammer handle that goes into the sand, the umbrella perfectly met our needs. The coating on the inside gives a feeling of coolness and perfect shade. Very durable. It is definitely worth its money. Our friends also bought it and were completely satisfied. I highly recommend it without hesitation!

  I can't find spare parts to fix it.
  The handle broke. The umbrella keeps coming undone.
