I went for the Cyprinus Fast & Light Brolly Mk3...They do an auction and managed to pick one up for £130.00 then added an overwrap..
I've used it several times and really happy with the quality. It's a pig to put up in the wind but I'm guessing that's a brolly set up!!
Been really pleased with the results and the compactness..think my bivvy is now redundant!! Joy of travelling lighter for overnighter..bliss 😉

I bought a solar sp brolly for £130, front can be bought separately. Lovely well made brolly with decent material and rear vent. You’ll get a good deal as it’s been discontinued

My mates just got a brolly system from alpha fishing, for the money it seems very good, comes with vapour shield, zip in groundsheet, rear vents, and loads of door options

Yes, it looks good value. The shelter is about £175, the zip in panel is about £70 and the groundsheet is £35 or you can get the bivvy for £270. It's good 'cause if you're a bit brassic you can just buy the shelter then add the other bits when you've got a bit more money. Or alternatively, just get the whole bivvy if you're flush. And not forgetting there's also an overwrap you can get for it.

£270 for the full bivvy looks very good

Sorry, my bad, the zip in front is optional. As is the groundsheet.

The Aqua brolly is overpriced not so versatile as the tempest the tempest everything zips in also can get scull cap wrap etc if you ever wanted to add bits also it’s a lot cheaper and it stands alone without faffing around with storm poles

Have a look at the Sonik AXS, there are 3 versions, the brolly, the shelter and the bivvy. There's a long thread on here about them, the last post was only a couple of days ago.

The brolly is basically an oval brolly, no front and no groundsheet. The shelter is the same as the brolly but with a zipped in front. And the bivvy is the brolly + zipped in front + groundsheet + overwrap. I think.

Can’t fault the Aqua fast and light for quick overnighters, if you want a bit more versatility then a tempest v2 brolly
