Took us 3 days to get this awning up.  Horrible design—takes minimum of 2 people, better with 3.  Just pieces of plastic that slide together and are supposed to be held in by screws which actually slide into spaces and do not hold at all the minute you move it.  Had to put part together and glue it and add extra screws to get it to work.  Lousy instructions also.  Do not recommend.
