going to buy a porch awning tomorrow, not sure which one to buy, so would like to hear from anyone on pros and cons of the two I'm thinking of, budget is approx £100

1, Towsure Portico Plus  or 2, Porchlite Square Porch Awning

Thanks in advance

We have Sunncamp Scenic Plus - looks pretty much the same as the Towsure Portico.  It's really quick & easy to get up - takes one person 20 minutes ish.  Brilliant for short weekend breaks when you don't want to put a big awning up but need somewhere for wet coats & shoes etc...

Check ebay - there are some new & used ones on there.

We purchased the Towsure Portico Plus awning and it failed the first night out - in not even a significant wind.  The quality of the stiching for the pockets holding the horizontal pole failed allowing the pole to pass through the stiched section.  Towsure did not want to know had provided a terrible aftersales service - so much so I will not be dealing with them again.  I have since had the pockets reinforced by a friend and am much happier with it - but it has been hassle I could do without.

some good offers on.and a 5 year warranty.

We have had both and find the square gives more usable space,still like our proper awning though.
