Customer Reviews for VEVOR 157x47" Patio Awning Retractable Awning Sunshade Shelter with Crank Handle

Overall awning is very good. Won’t know for sure about durability til I have used it for a year or so. The only thing that could be improved is being able to lock the awning in place. On a windy day awning will float up and down.

I have to say that it took me a few hrs to put this together Parts were not label and the instructions don't help at all. I search youtube and found someone put in it together.

I've been using this awning to cover my bike, and it definitely does the job! It's a bit finicky to assemble, but once it's installed, that baby ain't going anywhere. The wind and rain has been pretty brutal lately, yet it still stands strong.

Had to replace our old one, this one is so nice and is holding up to the weather.

Came will packaged. Instructions are just small pictures that made identification of the components difficult. Removed 1 star because of this. Having a video showing construction of the awning would be very helpful. Will see how it does on a windy day

we love this cause it makes our window more privacy from outside

I found this very difficult to put together but it looks very nice. It worked well and has a big spread. My own mistake, I tried to avoid putting the big bolts into my house and used lag bolts instead, we had a bad wind and it pulled right off. This was my fault though so just keep in mind that if you try that route it might not work. On a good note, even though it fell down it was completely unharmed so the quality seems to be very good. The photo shows the size of the holes I used with the lag bolt which are covered now because I didn't want water coming in.

It’s a little hard to figure out the instructions but once you get it the build goes pretty fast. Make sure you get it attached to the studs or the structural supports. The 12x10 moves in the wind and you definitely want it secured. As far as operation, it works flawlessly no issues and is operated daily.

Looks nice on our patio and is easy to roll in and out. All the hardware were provided. It wasn't difficult to install, however the instruction could be better: the illustrations/instructions was in a very small print, thus was hard to read. It's a two-person job.

I am a 5'4 woman. I assembled this myself in 45 minutes, only because I had to stop and get a large stool and distance the poles by trial and error. Essentially, you can follow the near word-less instructions just by the well-drawn diagrams. Take a moment to read through the instructions once, and then step by step, it is quite simple. All I needed was a Phillips head screwdriver. The fabric is very durable and the poles are in TIGHT. I was able to adjust it to my exactly 86\" deck, flat surfaces. I noticed the feet can pivot, which would make it possible to wedge it against a slanted ceiling. I was able to tighten the feet and align the bars by myself. All in all, excellent value, as I purchased a used one for $68 and it was in near perfect condition, maybe a few scratches on one pole, but can't tell if it's due to shipping or what. Everything was wrapped as if it was new. No missing parts. Highly recommend for anyone looking for something cheap or are in an rental like me and are weary of screwing things into walls.
