I have recently discovered a Dutch company called Obelink. They have a UK website and I have just received my new caravan canopy very like the Dorema Panorama for about £175 less than the Dorema. My canopy with aluminium poles was ordered on a Sunday and delivered on the Thursday. I also had delivered today a wheel clamp which cost a total of €36. It fits any caravan wheel. I ordered this from the Dutch site using google translate as the product was not on the UK website, the cheapest there being £96. The UK product is hopefully better but there is nothing at all wrong with the product I have bought. My border was placed on Monday and delivery was today, Thursday. I hope this information may help others to save a bit of money.

I have used Obelink for quite a few things now and saved a packet, plus their service and after care is superbe.

Another vote from me. Sometimes the same item is cheaper to buy on the dutch site, even though it is available on uk site!

Bought a couple of pole bags for awning etc, caravan rooflights and saved at least 30% on uk prices.

I like their site and have bought a tent from them in the past.

I contacted them this week to ask about delivery times to the UK and they told me 7 working days, but it seems from the above posts that they are even quicker. Hmm, I've got my eye on a little tent which I didn't think would arrive in time for next weekend but I'm now thinking it might be worth ordering.....

Yes, we've been very pleased too. We bought their Eldorado tent last June, ordered online on Thursday evening, delivered in Derby at lunchtime on the next Monday ! We thought the shipping cost was very reasonable, and the tent has been good in use.
The Obelink showroom in the Netherlands looks a bit awesome, we'd like to go there when we're next anywhere near.

We used Dutch company Esvo for our ridge poles and king poles for our tarp. Top quality stuff and not over expensive for what you get.

Update: Very good service indeed and the order did arrive in time for the weekend!

Order placed a couple of hours after that post, in other words, in the wee small hours of Saturday morning. I'm assuming Monday was the first working day - email received from them on Monday, tent arrived on Thursday and I was sleeping in it by Friday.

We have ordered a few things from them and they have always arrived very quickly. When we were in Holland last month we had a day trip to Obelink, the place is enormous and spread over several levels. We are now the proud owners of an Obelink customer loyalty card which already has a few Euros worth of points on it.

Another fan of Obelink here, with a number of satisfactory products and transactions, the biggest being one of the Hypercamp tents, namely the Escala 4.
