Hi,

I have a Khyam and they are very good, if you get the QE (Quick Erect) one, they are erected (te he) in literally 10 minutes with no arguments/fighting/swearing.

They do various designs, but make sure you get a quick erect one rather than the pole and sleeve type if you want an easy time!

ive just got a Ventura 'Freestander' awning second hand through a friend.

i wouldnt call it 'quick erect' by a long way though... its 3cm ish aluminium poles and a heavy duty tarp material, and it packs into quite a large bag. (can squeeze it nicely with ratchet straps though!) itd ride out a pretty heavy storm though with all the pegs and guy ropes and im v happy with it.
