The awning was delivered last week! My husband put it together within a couple of hours (we ordered the longest length available). Instructions were okay. Couple of corners were slightly bent but we used a mallet (keep by your side) to bang it back in place. Side bars are scratched up. Paint for touch ups is provided but these are pretty big scratches. All in all, it’s a nice, sturdy, heavy awning. Looking forward to installing this weekends!!
