ADVANING Classic Series 12'X10' Electric Retractable Awning, 100% Acrylic UV+ Sun Shade Canopy, Beige w/Brick Red Stripes, EA1210-A332H

Let start with our likes. Bob Villa (This Old House) recommends a lot of products, he hasn't let us down yet-this awning was on his list. It is well made, comes with all the installation parts-which doesn't require much. Is aesthetically pleasing, providing shade space, and a tilt down option, great for people who are yard workers, or just want to enjoy being outside. Delivery came by air /freight faster than expected, and was doubled boxed. The color of the awning was misleading, suppose to be gray w/yellow stripe. Actual color gray w/yellow-orange. Our back screen door- cedar w/burnt orange stain, which works. The remote control is also a bonus. We would deifinitely recommend this product.

I am really happy to have this awning shade installed. It add shade and beautiful to my sunny backyard. Thanks for great product!

Did quite a bit of research. Certainly paid off this time. Customer service was excellent as was shipping communication. Product arrived on time and was in a very sturdy set of packaging.Followed the install video and found bracket placement very straightforward, no issues. Brackets (3) took about an hour to install once studs were located. If there is a key it is to find the studs and to make sure end brackets are within a foot of ends to avoid braces on awning mounting brackets. Otherwise son helped to actually mount the awning which was done in less that 10 minutes. The bracket design aids in easy install.Operation of the awning is smooth and very quiet.This is perhaps on the costlier side as self install awnings go but having seem cheaper products, the quality of materials and ease of installation are exceptional and IMO a good investment since this will get a lot of use. Equally there are so called "top of the line" awnings that are installed by regional contractors. Having seen those as well I truly cannot see that they are better quality. If you view the video and are comfortable with finding studs, a drill and a level, this is an easy install IMO.Will circle back to update after a summer of use.

So far, it's a great awning. We installed the 16' X 10' model. Installation was straight-forward but not trivial. It is critical to make sure that you screw the lag screws directly in to the center of the studs. I was able to measure exactly where the studs were from inside the garage. I would be leery about relying on a stud finder to find the exact center of a stud. The brackets are heavy duty and it's a good thing because there will be a lot of load on them with a 16' awning in even the slightest breeze. My only concern about this awning is the load on the three brackets. I would have felt better if there were four or even five brackets to support it. The awing appears to be made of quality materials and weighs about 120 lbs. I can't think of any reasonable way to install it on the brackets without having two people to hoist it up. The awning is exactly what we needed to provide shade for our car. I would like to have seen a recommended wind speed (in MPH) that this awning can safely handle before it needs to retracted. There is no wind speed (in MPH) listed in the manual that I can find. Also, there is no wind speed sensor available from the manufacturer that would automatically retract the awning if the wind got too high. So, I will now be glued to to the daily weather forecast or maybe will put up my own anemometer (yippee, another project).

working well no problems

The awning seems to be good easy installation but the remote control for the awning is very poorly made. The battery is loose in the remote and the only way it works is if you squeeze hard on the battery compartment and then push remote buttons.**UPDATE**. Advanning was very helpful in sending me a new remote. Had issues syncing it to the awning. They sent a third remote, no luck. They sent out a new awning out which then worked fine. All took awhile, I notice that multiple awning companies use this same remote , which I still think is poorly made. But I must admit advaning went the extra mile to help solve the problem.

I dont ever leave reviews but this product and company have really made a positive impression and I just have to share my experience.I will begin by informing that I was hesitant to buy such an expensive product from an online service but after getting quotes from my local awning companies, I just couldnt afford not to look into Advaning a little more.I did reach out to them directly and spoke to several of their service personnel - to my surprise they all were quite informative, very accommodating, and beyond helpful with all my silly questions. I was reassured that any problem I should encounter would be properly handled by simply calling them again - and was also informed that their awnings have a 5 year warranty.After about 3 weeks of thinking about it I finally pulled the plug and made my purchase, I was surprised to see how well packaged and quick my awning arrived. Oh by the way - this is a very LARGE box, and they do ask that you sign for it which was the only inconvenience since I had to leave early from work to be there.Ok - Installation was so much simpler that I expected and my husband and I did it in less than 2 hours - I must admit most of the time was spent reading and measuring. You can really tell that they invested in quality materials with this product, its very sturdy and works amazingly - WE LOVE IT!Anyway, if your thinking about getting an awning go with this company - you'll be glad you did and we saved close to $2000 by going this route.

Wow !Looks great and I can’t believe how fast it was delivered.Beautiful and easy to install. Great price and superior quality..
