Hi

We are on our second Bradcot awning and this time round have got the classic. We have the easy fit poles and the whole thing is really easy to put up. We have never had any problems with either of our Bradcots and think they are very good value for money.

Hi , As above we have the Bradcot classic with the Easy system alloy poles, very easy to put up I can do it alone always looks nice.

We bought ours second hand and got a really good awning for a very good price.

Had a Ventura sieve awning and it went back,what a load of rubbish! We now have a Bradoct active and its a superb awning .We like the easy pole system alot as its easy to put up and very strong in poor conditions.

The choice is yours.

Hi Big D, I've got the Ventura Atlantic with Carbon poles and find it excellent; I've had 3 Isabella awnings (still got one) but can't complain about the Ventura at all. If you search the site you'll find several other threads about them too.

I have to agree with the other postings about the bradcott awning, and say that its an

 absolutely fantastic awning, 10 years anti fade, moveable peg clips, y2k zips, need i

say more!!!! Really easy to put up and great comments about the awning when its

actually on site. Got mine last year and have absolutely no problems with it what so

ever.

Would recommend it to anyone at all!!
