Bought at season's end for £161 to replace a worn out, 10 year old easycamp awning whose accumulation of minor injuries had grown too large.Only used it once but looking really good so far.Managed to erect this, with the "assistance" of my six year old son. Took a little while to sort out which guy lines go where. There are 2 long lines, one for the top at each end, then two sets of eight, one set of which is longer than the other; so be careful... The two with hooks are for the "flap" that goes over the car to attach with hooks to the supplied suction cups. Whilst there are two poles supplied to make one of the two side doors into a canopy, there are no guylines supplied for it. I ordered,separately, four additional guylines, two of which I used on the flap, the other two will be used on one door and the two with hooks on the other side door along with the poles from the easycamp so that we can have both as canopies.The four sets of poles go into the sleeves of the awning as easily as other awnings although securing them with the pins at each end was a little awkward - there are "buckles" on each of the straps that the pins are secured to that allow the straps to be lengthened which helps. Once up, given that it was quite a calm day, it was easy enough to peg the lines out and the base down - lots of tabs to peg down all round the base too.The "hinged" door is novel and has the only window that can be opened from within the awning - the other three windows consist of a plastic lower section and a mosquito net upper section. The cover for each of these is on the outside and can be secured down with a zip on each side - but not across the bottom, the bottom being sufficiently below the netting to avoid rain coming in. The absence of a zip across the bottom also means that these three windows supply more than adequate ventilation without causing draughts - a real boon given that the groundsheet is sewn in too. At each end of the long side (the one without the doors) there is a zipped section at the bottom of the wall to allow a hook up cable to enter - or for the gas pipe for a stove. Each window cover can also be rolled up (there are tab and "pin" like attachments to do this half way up the cover) to open the transparent section whilst leaving the netting part covered - useful if it rains, I would think. The bottom of each window cover also has tabs that would allow a guyline to be attached to keep them open but shaded - I'll need to get six more lines! Had the window covers been on the inside, the netting parts would allow rain in.We didn't try the inner tents as we slept in the bus but the securing points in the roof look to be strong and the attachment points in the floor do too - these latter indicate that when both are in use there would still be more than half of the floor area available for seating and for any kitchen arrangements. We had a three way fridge (similar in size to a large cool box) a table unit with a 2 burner stove on top and a square aluminium table along the long side and still had almost 2/3 of the full length unused. We also had another table, 4 chairs and a cool box in there in an attempt to make it look less empty... Think Nissan hut, but larger - had the end doorway been wider, we could put the car in it!The two side doors and the door to the bus all have separately "zipp-able" mosquito nets too. The two side doors have tabs at the bottom allowing you to pin them down with tent pegs - probably useful on a windy and rainy day.The section that goes over the roof of the bus is quite long but the two side sections that cover the space between the awning and the car are disappointingly short meaning that a sliding door on your car/van/bus may not be entirely within the short "tunnel" when opened - this is the only disappointing bit with this awning. More of a covered way to the car than a windproof tunnel.Regarding the comment concerning leaks, we didn't have any leaks during the couple of showers over the night of use but we did have a little condensation late in the evening (but no puddles in the morning) - probably due to using a convection heater on an October night... All seams were neatly stitched,I anticipate that the awning will offer lots of space for sitting, chilling, cooking and eating and lots of room for talking nonsense with friends late into the night.... In fact, that much room, we expected an echo.An excellent buy, especially given the end of season price cut.
