We've used ours once so far. Easy to put up exactly as it says. Hardest thing was to get it on the van first before we went away as we don't have room by the side to do it. We've left it on the side of the van, so we will see on Monday on our next trip whether its still as good. Apparently they have a tendancy to fill with rain water if left on the side. So it could be nice and mouldy now?!?!

used ours first time at easter!!!!! [o)] [:(]

windy time,difficult to even up ,depends on roof line of van.

if you have a straight roof its probrable ok,otherwise forget it!!!!

ours decided to rip by the side of van and part of it took off!!!!!

needless to say i now have new porch awning which fits better. [:D]

very flimsy i found,would not reccomend!!!!

thanks for your replies, not sure now what to do, also looked at the outdoor revolution techlite. I just want easy up and a fair bit of space for when the weather is not so good so i can chuck the kids out there, I'm a mother who camps with the kids on her own as hubby always away, hense it has to be easy to put up.
