That's uncanny to find half a dozen people in good roles in the same company with the same name lol

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
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
