Have been using this Outsunny Patio Awning for several years now, and I love it!  I have given it the test of time, and it has passed my expectations; although it was built to last and made from quality material.  Sun, rain and snow, it has held up and even survived a few rough summer storms here in the South.Built like the "Old Timers" would have done it.Thank you for a worthy product!Jeff
