We have one and like it.

It's easy and quick to put up, quick to dry if it's taken down wet and is quite spacious.  We only use it for short weekends away or in the spring/autumn when it's more likely to be taken down wet as it dries quicker than our big awning.

There's plenty of space for a table and chairs and other sundry items (kids bikes etc) but as it's a curved awning, you can't stand in the outermost edge as the headroom is limited.

Do we prefer the big full awning - yes.  Would we buy this awning again for occasional use - yes

Be aware, they do flap against the 'van a bit in the wind if you haven't pegged it out tight enough to the v'an!

If you get a 2010 model they have poles which seal the awning against the van so it doesn't flap about. We have the Ultima 390 and we really like it.

 Further to my previous post, I have been doing a bit of ferreting about and like the sound of the Kampa 390 (2010model). It has adjustable front legs which greatly increases the chances of geting a better seal down the caravan, altogether it looks a better quality awning. Does anyone have one of these and can give an appraisal. 

Just done what I should have done first of all and searched on threads with Kampa in the text to find awealth of posts on the subject..
