Topic: Discounted awnings for members

Posted By: DanielWalton
Subject: Discounted awnings for members
Date Posted: 13/12/2005 at 11:44pm

Alot of people are currently looking at Awnings for the new year. I know that Steve and Ian are currently putting something together on the Easi Porch for UKCAMPSITE so take a look at that.Camping and Caravanning club magazine are using for their test vans for the next year because its so simple to use and they will feature it in Januarys issue.The Easi Porch was up at Excel and Earls Court if anyone saw it.It takes five minutes to put up and has one steel pole which means there are no poles resting on the side of the caravan and with nothing against the caravan you limit the possibility of damage to the van caused by high winds.For more info you can see it as http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/articles/view.asp?id=103 , with a full write up coming soon on here from Steve and Ian who have used one.

It's an excellent price Netty. We are  going to use it for weekend meets. Paul says he will be able to set it up himself (was gonna say put it up  but changed me mind lol) I'm all in favour of that... :D

Hi,

The only pre-requisite with the Porchlite Plus is height. I was unable to find any info from dealers on the Rapido but I'm sure you have the height of the channel or gutter rail on the vehicle.

For all motorhome or lower caravans the Movelite is an excellent piece of kit because it has a channel which connects to the caravan/ motorhome by being risen or by lowering - and its free standing and can connect in a variety of ways.

For no hassle on lower/ higher or more unique caravans/ motorhomes the Movelite is an excellent choice.

Hope this helps.

Daniel.

The Universal Annexe with free Inner Tent looks good for the price, price for tent on its own is about 20 quid so quite a bargain, if postage is included wehey lol.

We have the Compactalite Awning, and are very pleased with it.  It's a good size without being too small.  It's great for weekends, infact it's great for any time! ;)

Good to know so many people are happy with their Outdoor Revolution awnings.  Its goes to show that from our end of things the amount of work put into design and the extra quality (in fabric, stitching and pegging points) really pays off once you're out on site.

Over 250 were sold at the GMEX show and I recieved a lot of positive feedback from people who had already bought Outdoor Revolution awnings.

The Camping and Caravanning club have reviewed the Easi-Porch this month in the club magazine and you can see for yourself its glowing report.  Camping magazine also has a full feature on Outdoor Revolution tents as well in their new tent guide.

Daniel.

 they look fantastic, i  wonder if a disabled person could put it up easily? as i struggle to reach up & have  muscle strength problems, the awning i have now i havent been able to use for last 2 years because of this, & thats a bradcot (large porch) awning was £485 in teal & grey just like new. i would try & sell that as only used it 3 times (when i was fitter) is £200  a decent price does anyone think? thanks, san

Hi
 
Got my Easi Porch Awning yesterday. Looks great out of the bag on the floor, can't wait to try it on our first trip on the year in 2 weeks time. No more wet boots - heaven!!!
 
BTW I ordered from this site and was very impressed by the quality of service and speed of delivery.

Lunnie - Check out the height of the Romahome - if its 255cm or under then the Movelite and the Navigator would be perfect.

Dear all,

I am looking for an awning  that is like the porches described, but that is full size. So like a tent attached on the side. Something that is bigger but mega easy to put up.

 

Any ideas?

Just got back from a meet where we used the Compactalite awning for the first time. It was brilliant. So easy to erect & take down & lots of room. Loads of people on the meet were VERY impressed & I think a few will be buying them through UKCS.

Excellent value..... image: - forum_images/smiley20.gif

Last year i bought a new porch awning ,i looked at the light weight suncamp but thought its to flimsey ,and you get what you pay for .WELL i was WRONG i wish i had bought the suncamp or a similar light weight .The way things are going there will be a lot of traditional porch awnings in the small adds columns  Coljac



Posted By: DanielWalton
Date Posted: 29/1/2006 at 10:35pm

Hi,

The Burgundy Easi Porch will be availabe in two to three weeks.

Hydrostatic Head refers to waterproofneed.  2000 refers to the amount of water in .mm that can be held on the fabric until it leaks - so 2,000mm is very waterproof and ideal for use in the UK.

The Easi Porch is great for people with disabilities.  Once the awning channel is threaded into the rail all of the other work is done at ground level.

Hope that helps.

Daniel.

 did someone say you cant use one of these awnings on the same side as door? thats no good as i need to with muddy dogs &  boots & wet coats, what a shame as i cant use  bradcot porch awning now with my disabilities, i would have got 1  of these otherwise,   what colour in mercury? thanks san



Posted By: Webmaster
Date Posted: 01/2/2006 at 11:29am

Hi, no, no-one said that. They're just like normal awnings which go on your door side, with the door opening into them. They are designed to be used as a porch area by the door, so ideal for your requirements.

Mercury is grey

Hope that helps

We have th Moverlight awning and have now used it 3 times. We have a motorhome with door at the back, it fits fine. Changing to a caravan in the near future and will be using same awning for caravan. Doesn"t matter if wet when time to go home. Stuff it into bin bag and throw over the banister or in garage overnight, then pack away next day. beter than the big heavy canvas ones.[:D]

Looking for a new porch awning after my Scenic ripped (in a fairly light wind) at the awning rail in Buxton last September and one of the poles scratched the side of my van.

I would ideally like something a little more robust and roomier as we go away alot for weekends in Autumn and Spring when it can be windy.

Has anyone used the Easi-porch yet? - it looks stronger that the Scenic? any pictures of it in burgundy available yet?

Thanks - Tony





Posted By: Webmaster
Date Posted: 19/2/2006 at 11:20pm

Hi Tony
I've had the EasiPorch up in pretty strong weather and it stands up beautifully. The design makes it much stronger than the Scenic type awnings. The frame along the front pulling back from the van makes it pretty solid, and you can tension it just right using the storm straps provided if necessary.

Plus, as it doesn't have any poles going back to the van, you don't have any of the problems such as you experienced with the Scenic poles scratching your van.

We haven't got any pictures up yet of the burgundy Easi Porch, but it's the pretty much the same colouring as the image above of the Porchlite.

Hope that helps,
Ian

Hi All

Just got back from a trip where our Outdoor Revolution Easi Porch Awning was used for the first time. Overall we reckon this is excellent kit. It tool high winds and torrential rain with no ill effects to it or the van.

Easy to put up (5 mins is accurate) and the extra space is liberating (we are 2 abults + 3 young kids). We got a free standing clothes hanger from Pounstretcher which took all the coats and meant the van was free from them + a plasitc bin for the shoes, all of which lived in the awning.

So we are very pleased with it - if you are sitting on the fence over whether to get one my adivce would be to go for it!!!

HTH

All the best.

SB

Ian & SB thanks for your feedback. One more question on the easi porch please.

How light is it inside? It looks like it could be a little dark on some of the promotional pictures?? Are there enough windows?

Thanks Tony





Posted By: superbirch
Date Posted: 20/2/2006 at 10:35pm

Tony

It's plenty light and there are enough windows. Ours is blue / grey if that makes a difference, maybe,  I'm not sure.

One other thing I forgot to mention in my last post is that the supplied pegs are fine for grass but useless for gravel. I bought some steel 8in pegs in advance of our trip since I knew I would be pitching on gravel (it was a fully serviced pitch).

Just something to bear in mind that's all but the replacement pegs are cheap anyway.

SB





Posted By: Webmaster
Date Posted: 20/2/2006 at 10:41pm

Yes, I would say it's certainly light enough. Three windows in total, one on each side and at the front. Think this image shows it as quite airy / light http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/membershop/bluediamond/easiporch8.jpghttp://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/membershop/bluediamond/easiporch8.jpg

Sounds like it could do the job for a weekend.

Just feel a little nervous after the bad experience with the Scenic. I shudder to think of how much damage could have been done to the van when it gaave way if I hadn't been in the van at the time (I was a massive fan of the Scenic porch and had recommended it to loads of people!).

Conventional porch awnings seem dated and just as difficult to put up as their big brothers so this easi porch could well be a happy medium.

Thnaks for all the advice. Tony

Hi Webby, Ratty, is ther a full size awning or are they all porch awnings or driveaways. Not about to replace ours again at the moment, took ages to get one from the same era as the van, but having looked through the shop I could not make out if any of them were full fitting?

cheers

No Graham, all driveaway, or porch type awnings, although the Compactalite is pretty big, so not really a porch awning

I'm really interested in your post as I too suffered a similar fate with my Scenic. Did you complain to the retailer or Sunncamp? Would you mind mailing me: dweeks007 at hotmail.com.

Many thanks

New Rangers, I have sent you an email with the full story, but basically i tried both Towsure and Sunnflair who manufacture the Scenic. If they say it's wind damage, you have to prove that you are innocent! It got uncomfortable with threats of me having to foot the courier bills etc so i let it drop in the end. Sunnflair had a massive backlog of returns and didn't have any confidence in them helping.

Lesson for the future - Sunnflair porch awnings are only for use in calm, fair weather - which just about rules them out for use in the uk by my reckoning! Sunnflair advidsed me that i had to take it down if it got windy!! You can imagine all scenic owners in the middle of the night taking them down when it gets windy!

Cheers

I have been reading all your comments on the porch awnings and it has definately convinced us to get one. So we went ahead and ordered the easi porch awning last night. Cannot wait to get it and give it a try, on our first trip away in the Caravan.

We ordered our Easi-Porch awning on Friday night after reading all the excellent reviews. It was delivered first thing this morning (Tuesday). Now is that good service or what?  I have had it all out and it looks brills, cannot wait to try it out. I read in a previous post what the pole with the plastic clip and plastic covered ends was for and it was replied that it was for the roof of the awning to give it support. Could anyone tell me if there is a channel for this to slide through?.                              Many thanks to all involved.





Posted By: Webmaster

Yes, there is a pocket sewn in to the roof at each end, put the pole in, and extend it until it is tight, then lock it

Next time our confortmatics up I'm measuring up for one! What should I check as I've never bought a porch awning i'm guessing it would be height from rail to ground and where the porch awning would come width wise in relation to any windows/towing hitch.Is that correct? Help anyone??!!

After reading all your posts we've decided to buy an easi porch ourselves!  In the past we've had a conventional porch awning - these have the poles that come down the sides between the van and the awning with padding to wrap round them to stop the drafts.  Do you get any drafts whipping through these as they don't have the poles and padding?   Thanx.  Bev.

Poppi, yes they are the measurements you will need!

Bev, in my experience you get a pretty good seal against the side of the van (with a bit of adjustment) to prevent wind getting in.

Hope that helps,
Ian

Has the Compactilite got roll up front opening panels ?

We used our Movelite awning for the first time last weekend. It was great. No problems putting it up, although being novices we maybe could have done a better job when pegging it.

No worries though it stood up to a bit of snow the first night and strong winds the second. It gave us so much more room and it will get used all the time. It is worth taking even for one or two nights because it doesn't take long to put up and is so light. All in all we are really pleased with it.

used our porch awning for the first time, it went up quick and is great, would recommend this one, just one tip that Joe told me was to twist the storm straps, then they don't make that flapping sound in the night.

We are waying up a porch awning to replace our full one. As our dogs sleep in it we will want one of the larger ones. Regarding the Easi and Compactalite how do they stand up to windy wet weather...???

Is the big Scenic ones not as wind resistant as the above...???

I used the compactalite a couple of weeks ago at a site in Brean Sands and it was blowing an absolute blinking gail the whole time and the awning stood up very well, it has four storm straps which did their job spot on!

I have got the Easi Porch up at the moment on the caravan, but it is not that windy today, however it was quite windy yesterday and this also stood up very well in the wind, however it is not as windy here as it was in Brean.

We had our Porchlite plus up for first time last week in Ayr.

Absolute sinch to erect and put away,,,,,,,,       Used Delta pegs rather than the wire ones and some rock pegs.

Endured 60mph + winds and driving rains no problem, no flapping on the sides of the van....... for a small porch there was still adequate room for a shoe rack, cool box, bin, and folding chair with easy passage.

What a fantastic product,      I was worried when I saw the forecasted winds but now have bags of confidence in it.

Date Posted: 06/5/2006 at 9:40am

What model are you looking at/

The porchlite wouldnt be suitable as it would hold snow on the top between the crossover poles if the snow was heavy, the comactlite should shed the snow because of its domed pitch.   Im sure Daniel may be able to give a more positive answer





Posted By: DanielWalton

Hi there,

Bardsea Leisure in Cumbria and Lowdhams in Huddersfield have both scraped snow from the roof of our products over the last winter.  The Easi Porch has held the most snow we've ever seen on a lightweight porch and there were other makes there that didnt withstand the downpour.

I would put the Easi porch first, then Compactalite and then Porchlite - with my only worry about the Porchlite being the tension on the poles and the possibility of damaged caused by addedd weight.  Rain doesnt effect them because it runs off but snow has far more chance of collecting on the roof and thus the steel pole of the Easi Porch and the dome shame of the Compactalite will be much better against the weight.

Hope this helps and happy skiing.

 

Thanks,

Daniel.

We bought an easi-porch earlier in the year, originally green  but a week later, burgundy was advertised. contacted uk campsite, a swap no problem. thats the good bit. My wife and have been camping for over 20 years, the first fifteen under canvas the last 5 in a van. We have tried to erect the easi porch on two occassions, both unsuccessfully. On the first it was very windy, we gave up and managed without, on the second we gave up after an hour and put up the full awning! Does anyone have any advice or instructions that are better than those included. Finally the single pole does not extend, whatever it is for anyway, we couldnt work out at the time, but the threads seem to imply  its for the roof.

hi daijames

your not the only one havin trouble !!!

 we got ours for weekends to save puttin up the big awning, also its quicker to dry. we tried it at the storage so we had an idea how to erect it----not to bad but it was only a trial so didnt peg it down.

 went out at easter 1st time using it ---- oh my god the ground for the awning wasnt level what a job we had(my parents had got there van and they had there dorema porch awning up before we got ours presentable)

went out 2nd time at may day, just the same i was ready to just take it down and leave it down.

the things i find should be different are the support pole should be adjustable at the bottom to allow for uneven ground , the support bar that fits in the 2 pockets in the roof does not allow the water to drain (cus we woke to find approx 2 litres of water collected in the roof)

hope someone replies to us.

mrs p





Posted By: DanielWalton
Date Posted: 04/6/2006 at 10:50pm

Not sure when these were bought but the Easi Porches manufactured the start of 2006 have a drain hole at the start front of the awning which means water doesnt collect.  It would seem that Mrs P has model one, which doesnt have the drain hole - but will still drain under normal circumstances - but may hold water in torrential rain, but the awning wont leak even when collecting water due to the technical nature of the fabric used.

On the adjustable side of the product the Easi Porch has a certain amount of adaptability within it but if the pitch is very uneven it would be difficult to get it 100% straight. The awning should never take more than 20 minutes to put up though.

To put up the Easi porch simply slide the awning piping through the awning rail.  Put the bar through the front of the awning. Put the left hand pole in, clip into the ring and pin at the base and then clip onto the side of the awning.  Do the same with the right hand pole.  If you need to adjust either side to clip into the ring and pin then use the buckle at the bottom of each ring and pin.  Peg out.

I never use the centre pole for extra support and have been out in some bad rain with the Easi Porch.

Hope this all helps.

Daniel.

Hi guys.   Now back from my break in Somerset after the first outing with the Easi porch.     First comment, erection instructions would have been very nice as I began with it inside out and with the metal support inside too, ( don't laugh ).  Once I realised how it went it was fairly easy but with hind-sight I think it would be easier to slide it into the rail on the caravan, then insert the long metal rail into it's position and also put in the extending rail into it's pockets then once the side supports are in position it's just a matter of guy-roping and pegging it down.   In conclusion I was very pleased with it although it would benefit greatly with a side door.    At that price it really would be hard to beat, even the dog liked it ! 





Posted By: degsytroy
Date Posted: 10/6/2006 at 6:41am

We have used our easi-porch once and found it really easy. One thing that I did do was to mark the end that I fed into the awning rail first with a permanent marker for future reference. That way, it's impossible to put it up inside out.

Hi everyone

 Purchased the compactalite a couple of weeks ago ( very fast delivery)

Just returned from a week away in Wales with my son, the compactalite was perfect for our needs, erected in a  couple of mins ( even without the intructions) although i would like to know what the black straps on the inside are for ?- loads of space inside enough room for a double air bed and more. 

 Anyone thinking of getting one i would give it 9 out 10 - a perfect ten if it came with the instructions. 

Best wishes

Read all the above posts as we thought these awnings look pretty good.  However - we tend to use porch awnings for trips in winter and wet weather, as we think their main benefit (against no awning at all) is to hang up wet coats and enable muddy boots to stay outside.  So far, we can't see how we could hang up anything in these awnings.  Are we missing anything?



Posted By: Webmaster
Date Posted: 17/7/2006 at 9:21am

Yes, we hang stuff from our Easiporch, from the middle pole, and we have added a loop to one side to hang stuff from on. The Compactalite we have to hang stuff from the window. I will look into different methods next time we get both of them up

Sorry Daniel, only just seen your answer here. The measurement is 229 cm but the Porchlite Plus says 235cm and anyway I don't want a Porchlite as it wouldn't be big enough, it's only just over 2 metres. I was thinking more along the lines of the Compactalite, my Panorama XL is just big enough inside. If only the caravan was tall enough for it!

In my naivete I assumed that all modern shaped vans were roughly the same height but I've got one thats vertically challenged, like me!

Hi Ian

I would like to get a compactalite to give us a bit more room than the Porchlite plus , it shows the width as 285cm. Is this the minimum size the awning rail needs to be level or can you get away with slightly less ?

Thanks

Steve

You can get away with slightly less, Ratty has one, and his roof starts to slope down at the front for about 18 inches I would say, and it fits okay

Is there a porch awning that will fit the avondale wren? (late 80's early 90's model) an elderly couple on our site have had trouble finding something that fits theirs because it slopes down on the back so the frame can't rest against the rear side wall of the caravan.  Any ideas would be greatfully received!

Hi Troops,

I am very interested in replacing my standard Porch Awning with a Easyporch or even a Porchlite plus. Having looked at all the Photos I am a bit concerned about the amount of rope and tie downs that seem to be needed. I would appreciate hearing views on this.

If you are on a standard site is there room to park the car?

Could they be a safety hazard at night on the way back from a light refreshment?

I have 2 small dogs (very stupid) and use their extendable lead and a couple cork screw type anchors to stop them legging it after the first rat or French Poodle. Any experiences out there like mine - many thanks George Mc



Posted By: Webmaster
Date Posted: 21/9/2006 at 11:05pm

The ropes and tiedowns in the photos are all out for illustration purposes only - you wouldnt normally necessarily need to put out all the storm straps etc in normal use. I certainly dont on my Easiporch - in fact there are less guys than on a standard awning.

The Easy Canopi is the brand new concept for 2007. A superb lightweight and really easy to erect sun canopy from Outdoor Revolution. There are times you just dont want to put up a full awning, or even a porch awning, and the EasiCanopi is just what you need.

The edge has an awning bead, so can be slid into a caravan awning channel. Alternatively, if you have a motorhome with a gutter you can use figure of 8 joining strips to attach it direct to the gutter.

Then simply place the two steel poles into the eyelets, either side of the 240cm wide canopy and then guy it out.

Create instant shade from the sun, and shelter from the elements. It'sis fully waterproof and UV protected and gives excellent protection against light showers or hot weather, without obscuring your view

Hi webmaster. We have a 1995 Avondale sandmartin and were interested in one of the lightweight awnings but were advised they wouldn't fit. At present we have a trio elegance which fits well but is very heavy to carry with steel poles. Are there any of the lightweights suitable for this van. We are both over 70 and finding putting the trio is not so easy to put up now. Would be grateful for any advice.
Thanks

Hullo,

We're very interested in the Easi-porch, but as we've a fixed bed the 'van door is towards the front of the 'van, which means the Easi-porch door, being on the right side of the awning, is on the wrong side for us. Are there any plans to bring out one with a door on the left hand side?

The Cmpactalite looked good too - but the doors are too low for my other half - he's 6'4"!

Our van is an ABI Marauder Mk1 450ct.The handbook says awning size 829 cm.Our current one,which we are looking to replace is an NR Tuscany labelled 14 ft
It fits perfectly,ground level permitting.
We are considering an Isabella Ambassador.This one is labelled 825 x 1158.If the 850 is the length any idea what the 1158 is ? Will it fit?
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks and Keep On Vannin

Hi,

   We are getting past putting up a full awning (both hobbit sized... :oops: ) and like the look of Outdoor Revolution Spacelite & Techlite1. How long is the horizontal awning rail length required for one of these. We have a Sunncamp Ultima 260 that fits. Our caravan is a 1998 bailey Pagent Magenta.

The picture is exactly the same though even though the review of the 2006 model on this site looks really different.

Sorry these are 2006 models..whats the difference HOW are the 2007 models improved?? They all look the same to me so can anyone help before I buy one.

 Hi I cant say how they have been updated,but contrary to reports the Space lite is still available through this site  and is a great

lightweight awning in fact since we bought ours in early 2007 we have used it

exclusively in preference to our full awning the only drawback I can find is that the eylets for pegging out are too small to accept rock pegs I have replaced all of them with larger rubber ones and the pegs supplied would be ok on grass but useless

on hard standings.Still it is a 100% better than the PDQ.[:o)]
