    Be good if they got rid of all the guide ropes and replace it with the plate that sits under the polls and you can peg them in that way

      Great, honest review. Could you drill through the bottoms of the poles to have a “stupa peg” style set up with legs going through the poles?

      @@paintandpinotinperth7868 the pole bottoms are round to save space so they fold up nicely and Velcro flush on the support struts, it would be a great idea though

    Biggest issue I see with this awning is the multiple pieces of canvas seen together. Has there been any leaking thru stitching?
    Excellent review mate.
    Thanks

    • @4WheelsOnTheRoad
      @4WheelsOnTheRoad  Před 2 lety +1

      Hey mate. Zero leaks. Its one entire piece of canvas. You do get rain through the gaps where the arms attach to the base plate though, but you get that with most awnings
