ADVANING 16'X10' Motorized Patio Retractable Awning | Classic Series | Premium Quality, 100% Acrylic UV Sun Shade Awning, Color: Natural Beige Stripes, EA1610-A332H

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.

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.

Super easy to install, being that it is all previously on delivery. Well worth the extra cost! Took me and my brother 45 minutes to get it up. (We already had a mounting player from an old deck)

Bought this more expensive model because it has a stronger frame, it's motorized, has dual steel cables, tilt adjustable and comes fully assembled. This unit is heavy (around 60lbs) and you should consider 2 people for the placement of it. This is a high quality unit which works well with the remote control. It comes with a crank handle for manual operation and the same crank works for the tilt adjustment. This unit needs a solid mounting. I found the bracket bolts that came with it did not work well and kept spinning when cranked down (as if it were stripped) so I went and bought bigger 5/8 x4.5in wedge anchors for my concrete wall to use instead. One problem was the stronger anchors use a threaded shaft and nuts to secure them. When the nuts were cranked down, the threaded shaft extended past the nut about 1/2". If you have anything larger than a nut, it hits the frame and you won't be able to push it in far enough to secure the frame. I used a grinder to cut off the bolt shaft which worked fine after that. One other small detail is the bolts they provide to secure the frame into the wall brackets are not easy to get the nuts on while holding the frame in place. There is no room for your hand to hold the nut in place so be patient. I used a luggage tie strap to hold the unit in place so I could safely take my time with the secure bolt and nut. Overall, the quality is good, it works perfect. The remote is easy to understand and use. Once you set the tilt, you are good to go. It works perfect to shade our hot tub and holds up good in light winds. I have yet to see how it handles rain or heavier winds but thats the beauty of the remote control. I would but it again.

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.

This is a great awning, a wonderful addition to our patio. Love the ease of using it snd it’s so quiet. Would definetely recommend this motorized awnning

This is a bueatiful awning at a great price compared to the heavily advertised models on TV. It’s an easy installation with two people and it is very well constructed with quality materials as well as the included hardware. Take time measuring before you drill and the rest is easy. In south Florida the rain can be just as brutal as the sun. The fabric is water repellent but it won’t handle a heavy rain or wind. We retract it when expecting either one. The motorized model is awesome, but the remote is just weird, but it works fine. All in all we love it but just know what to expect!
