This awning is awesome! The only reason I gave it a 3 star is because the installation was completly rediculous. Everything was going ok until we got to one section of the instructions, which were very confusing, had to read it like 5 times, still got it wrong and had to redo what we thought was correct. Once we got through that step we hit a brick wall, only to find out it was because one of the arms were attached upside down from the manufacturer! We could not attach that arm to the proper bolt and will have to go back later and try to figure out how to detach arm and install with the proper side up. Other than the lack of good instructions and the arm error, we love it!!
