Some awning advice please.

Post by MikeB »

I am looking to get a driveaway awning to replace the current one I have which is a pain in the backside to put up.

Does anyone have any experience or comments on this one?

It's the 2007 Spacemaker driveaway awning from Just Kampers.

I do not have a clue about that one, but I have bought a Khyam motordome and it is excellent, I know its a wee bit dearer but well worth it in my opinion, can put it up myself in under 10 mins, 8)

Thanks for the opinions so far. Anybody else have any thoughts before I take the plunge?

we have the just campers awning- mighty fine - just survived a gale in the Lakes but it takes me an hour to put up- endless pegs etc. a bit annoying when you really just want a beer after arriving at your new site

Bought the spacemaker awning from Just Kampers very recently. First time we put it up, it took us an hour. The second time we managed it in less than half an hour... Yes there are a lot of pegs, but once its up, you don't have to worry. For a one night stay i don't think i would bother, but for two or more, go for it. It makes a great sun-room for enjoying those beers, a private space for the porta-potty or solar shower and a great overnight kennel for the pooch. Would i reccomend it... Damn right i would, it makes a grat addition to our van.
