I'm in the market for a new brolly and like the look of the wychwood offerings.
Does any know the difference between the mhr and the new tactical?
Also does the mhr brolly differ if bought as a system or bought separately? I'm sure I saw something about the system not having the extended skirt.

Talk to your local shop. I've had one on order with mine since launch and he told me earlier this week he is finally getting a delivery next week 😀

Emailed them this week again here is the reply.
Thanks for getting in touch.
The first drop was delayed and we've still yet to have them so you haven't missed out!
We've now had a confirming date of 08/09/20 so all going well they'll be at retailers just a few days later.
You're welcome to stay in touch for updates though.
Kind regards,

Lol. You'd enjoy a few of the messages I sent them regarding there website etc then on one of their Instagram posts. I think I was fair but I didn't pull any punches.

Bad enough getting an actual video on there new products, sadly there media team seems to be stuck in the 90's and relies on others to make there own

so all thru the Lockdown they were answering msgs and you could post comments on their page and send msgs and get quite quick replies
But now they are getting back to normal they suddenly stick two fingers up and shut off commenting and the ability to msg them

Probably the only person in the business who knows how to use a computer is off furlough and back in the warehouse
You'll probably find out it was actually someone's teenage kid who was answering you from the lazi spa

To be fair over the years I have bought a fair few of their products
but their Marketing has always been out of touch never made a decent video of their products or had much customer relations
and their decision to turn off commenting and msgs on the Facebook page is IMHO madness and bit pointless having a facebook page

I've recently bought the MHR II and really happy with it.
I'm not sure what you mean by the extended skirt but I bought a full system which included the brolly, ground sheet and zip in front.

Cheers for the info Gerry. I'm certainly looking more at the mhr mk2 now but probably just the brolly, as I never have the front on anyway.

Joe the Mk2 still comes with a 5-year manufacturer warranty
possibly the best Brolly in its price range

Just looking at it now, do you have the brolly or the full system mate?
If its the system does it still have the extended rear skirt?

Love my wychwood brollys bit was a bit confused with the pack down length quoted on the tachtical. They have said it's 1750 which is 68 inches. This feels quite long I'm assuming the front ribs must be extended

Also the mhr system doesn't have the extended internal skirt, but the stand alone brolly does.

apparently its a 7 rib brolly as opposed to the normal 8 this gives it the ability for your bed to go right to the back giving lots of room in front of your bed Depth mm - 1400mm
