Primrose 2.5m Manual Awning - Terracotta Mayfair DIY Patio Awning Gazebo Canopy (8ft 2") Complete with Fittings and Winder Handle

I have been debating whether to buy one of these for years. This year I thought I would take the plunge and searched the internet. I found that they were very expensive. I then looked on Amazon and found this one. The reviews were fantastic and the price was even better. I thought it was too good to be true and for 89.00 I thought what the hell, would order one and even if it only lasted a year it would be okay. It was ordered with the cover and the instructions were clear and it was easy to put up. Make sure you have the right drill bit but once we had popped to B and Q and had the right equipment it was quick. The product looks good and the materials look very good quality. Already friends have commented how great it looks. Now all we need is the bright sunshine so I can check it out!!!! Really pleased and great value for money. Would recommend.

This awning is great value for money. It arrived within 3 days and was packed very well. Our son and son in law came to help to put it up. As we have stone walls we were a bit worried about getting all the holes drilled avoiding pebbles which would have been disastrous. Luckily all holes went perfectly and the awning was mounted to the brackets which had screwed in really well with the bolts sent out. The awning adjusts easily so the required level was achieved easily. The key is to measure several times, get the levelscorrect before you drill. There us a level built in to help so that has been covered too. When the awning is out one of the arms is at a slightly different angle from the other side. I think this is intentional. We are really pleased with the resulting awning. It covers a great area. We have purchased a cover for the winter but haven't used it yet. It looks ideal and comments from others are encouraging. All in all a great buy.

This is the second one of these I have purchased, the first being much larger for another part of the garden. These are really very nice. They are easy to install, albeit they need strong heavy duty fastenings. The coach screws etc supplied cannot be screwed into wool (as per their instructions), so I had to use 10 mm through bolts on my out- house stud wall. Fixing to concrete/brick is quite easy. The whole unit simply fits to the wall brackets, and then is secured by bolts, so there is no assembly and confusing 'faffing about'. It would be prudent to get a hand lifting it onto the brackets, other than that very easy and straightforward. The arms are very robust, as is the material. If it is windy there is some movement of the arms, and I then generally either part wind or wind the the awning up. I'm sure it would withstand moderate winds but I err on the cautious side. There is no guidance as to what weather conditions it will withstand. The awning fabric is waterproof but does let a little misting through if the rain is very hard. The awning will gather water and sag, but it then will yawl sideways and dump it out. I tend to use the soft end of a broom and shove the awning upwards to spill the water. I hope this does not put you off because this is the extreme end of its use, we just hunker up under it and enjoy a glass of wine and giggle like a couple of kids. In conclusion it is a great awning, but I would not like to leave it unattended if the weather was forecast to be very bad.

It looks good, works really well and great quality for the money. You have to get the brackets fitted right first time as you only really have one chance at that considering the size of holes you have to drill. So measure up carefully and make sure the holes are dead level from end to end. It will take two to get the awning into the brackets and once up the spirit level in the actual awning is a great idea as you can adjust. Once again the placement of the brackets are important as you can only adjust the tilt level of the canopy if you have the brackets as far apart as is possible. As I said at the beginning it does look good when up so much so my son is going to get one.

Very nice piece of kit. Easy to install (2.5m), looks good and simple to adjust. Well pleased so far. This is our second one and it’s just as good as the first.

Top quality,easy to fit.

It was easy to install and is easy to use. It blocks the sun and does it`s job quite well. My main gripe is that the green stripe is fading after just 10 months. For a sunshade I would have thought it would be more colour fast. It also creaks a little if it is windy which is a disconcerting, so usually wind it in a bit. Whether it would have been a good idea to have taken it down during winter I don`t know, it would have kept all the winters rain off at least. If I could have managed it on my own perhaps I would have done. It is not easy to clean after the winters damp on it.

Well we thought for the price 'will it be ok' better then ok it's brilliant! Looks smart easy to use did take longer then suggested to put up, but us being very precise and wanting to get it right! Also I would suggest extra pair of hands as is quite heavy lifting into brackets on your own and we are retired but did it together, mainly purchase as if we get my 92 year old mother outside the sun more round and she is suddenly not in the shade, so thus will be perfect for her to sit under and as it's waterproof can leave things safely under and won't get wet! Absolutely perfect and fantastic price

Super bien!!

Bien arrivé

j ai été très surpris par la qualité des matériaux et montage fait d'avance donc facile a installerseul reproche le prix est un peu élever si on compare a un autre site du simple au double ce quim'a interpellé mais n'ayant pas voulu prendre de risque et mauvaise surprise j'ai préféré amazone

Gut verpackte Ware, schnelle Lieferung - Montage und Justage der Markise ohne Probleme! Sie findet Verwendung unter dem Glasdach einer Gartenterrasse. Qualität ist soweit einschätzbar gut bis sehr gut. Haltbarkeit habe ich mit vier Sternen bewertetda man hierzu noch keine Aussage machen kann.

Tout parfait ! très simple à monter ! J'en suis très satisfait ! Et très facilement démontable si on veut le ranger en hiver.
