Australians on the east coast are bracing for widespread rain every day for the next week, with thousands reaching for an ‘unbreakable’ umbrella dubbed a ‘lifesaver’ in extreme weather.

Bone has gained a loyal following for its sturdy yet stylish umbrellas designed to withstand the heaviest rainfall and strongest wind conditions.

Called ‘the last umbrella you will ever buy‘ the product has been tested to perform in all weather conditions, including wind speeds of up to 113 km/h.

Customers must pay a minimum of $129 for it Metro umbrella available in 21 colors, but some customers claim the product has lasted a decade.

Also called ‘the last umbrella you will ever buy’, Bone Umbrellas have been tested to perform in all weather conditions, including wind speeds up to 70mph

There are two sizes available: the Metro and the Coupe, with the black Metro umbrella receiving over 2,900 reviews.

‘I’ve had two Subways for 10 years and they have only just broken an arm shaft. Will definitely buy another one. I love these umbrellas,” wrote one satisfied customer on Blunt’s website.

‘A friend got the umbrella and when she showed it to me I was very impressed. I looked at a lot of umbrellas and thought this Blunt product looks very sturdy,” wrote another.

Someone else said: ‘I bought these for my son…umbrellas that he has tried before, upside down in the high winds in Melbourne. He is very impressed with the quality and craftsmanship of this umbrella and it is used extensively.’

Others describe the product as ‘flawless’ and ‘truly durable’.

The product is available from the Blunt website and The Iconic and Catch.

The idea for Bone started in 1999 when founder Greig Brebner was working as a young engineer in London and noticed a ‘real problem with cheap, disposable umbrellas’.

So he decided to be the one to make a change.

“My vision was to create a product that would perform better, last longer and give people a sense of confidence and joy when they used it,” Mr Brebner told FEMAIL.

‘I felt that a better designed umbrella would increase its value in the marketplace, just like the potential of any other well-designed fashion-forward product.

‘The industry was seemingly focused on making products faster and cheaper, with little effort to make them better. Consumers had lost respect for them and I thought that had to change.’

He added that Blunt umbrellas stand out from others on the market because the product “gives consumers a better experience” and makes them feel confident when using it.

Weather Zone meteorologist Angus Konta told Ny Breaking Australia: ‘There is some pretty decent rainfall over the next week, with Sydney expecting between 50mm and 100mm over the next seven days.

‘Brisbane will also see rain, especially early next week, with a maximum of 30mm to 60mm over seven days, and Melbourne is also in for consistently wet weather, but with lighter rainfall of around 20mm to 40mm throughout the week ‘.

Mr Konta explained that a trough over the eastern states is meeting warm tropical air moving inland from the ocean, which will bring rain and thunderstorms.

‘The rain will mainly be concentrated in the eastern half of the country, while Perth on the west coast is experiencing a heatwave that is expected to last until the weekend.’

The wet spell follows another string of humid days across much of the east coast as the country heads into a so-called hot and dry El Niño summer.
