Customer Reviews for VEVOR Manual Retractable Awning, 3.66x3.05m Outdoor Patio Awning Retractable Sun Shade, Water-Resistant Polyester Patio Door Window Awning Sunshade Shelter with Crank Handle for Backyard, Balcony

We purchased this 12'x10' awning to take the heat off of a large glass patio door. The west-facing kitchen area is already 10° cooler in the afternoon, and we can hang out on our deck, previously too hot. Installation was challenging, special brackets had to be made to mount under eaves on rafters. Used countertop brackets from Amazon($50), with angles welded & 3/8" thick metal drilled ($180 shop fees). 2 rafter ties per bracket for extra support. Very sturdy custom install, since I have a wood frame house without concrete walls. Took about 2 weeks, but worth it. Skill level required: Average homeowner DIYer. 2 peope to lift & bolt onto brackets. Diligently read installation /assembly guide provided, plus download guide from Vevor site. Really. The custom install cost more than the (manually retractable) awning, but the total cost to me was less than other awnings, especially for the excellent quality. It is so easy to extend/retract that the electric one would not be worth it, except for the physically challenged. Note about the stability: the farther out the awning is extended, the more it is affected by wind. I've considered making some support bars that could attach to the "flounce bar" - but right now, if it is breezy I only extend it 1/3 to 1/2 way out where it's much more stable. To be clear, the bouncing effect is in the awning, not the custom brackets. This review also commends the Vevor customer service department for their handling of a missing part issue, that they replaced quickly. Thanks Vevor for another great product and for your customer service. Sorry, tried to provide pictures, don't have accepted format.

Bon produit avec rapport qualité prix très intéressant. Il y a un peu d’assemblage, mais rien d’insurmontable. Pour ma part, je me suis contenté de mettre 2 supports et non pas trois comme préconiser, car j’y étais un peu contraint -> installation sur 2 bracons d’un portique bois. A souligner la possibilité d’orienter la descente jusqu’à 40 degrés, c’est ce qui m’a décidé car je l’ai installé sous le auvent de ma terrasse (donc avec un toit en pente)

Très Bon produit je recommande acheteur sérieux expédition rapide

Ha quedado genial en mi terraza, las instrucciones bastante detalladas y fácil instalación sin tener experiencia previa en este tipo de montajes. Sin duda volvería a comprar en vevor.

Sito affidabile ,imballo perfetto ,facile da montare consiglio a chi fosse interessato.

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.

Setup was easy. There are times where you will need a second hand to assemble. It's been up for about a month. The only concern is you must remeber to retract it during windy days.

Love it! Sturdy and easy to use

Use on our pool deck and it’s fabulous. Definitely takes some time to put together with the directions, but totally worth it. Quality exceeded my expectations.

I've had an issue with my front door ever since I moved into my house. The roofline merges just above the front door, and when it rains, water collects up against the house, and you have to pass under a waterfall to get into the door. This little awning has changed that completely! It also has the added benefit of shading my front entry which keeps the flies from swarming my front door in the morning. No more waterfall, no more water collecting up against the entry way. I was able to assemble and install this by myself, though another pair of hands would have been nice it isn't necessary. The only adjustment I would make to this would be that the top brace pieces would hit more of an angle so they would snug up against the slanted eave better, but it has only fallen once and that was when the wind picked up suddenly on that side of the house. As long as I roll it up, the wind isn't an issue and it will still direct water away from the house enough. Another added bonus is that I am able to catch the rainwater in a bucket so i can water my flowers with it. I'm already planning on buying again!
