Power Awning Recommendations

DesertRatt · 10-31-2021, 02:00 PM

My manual awning was shot when i bought my 2004 Minnie Winnie 30 last year. We weren't concerned as we don't often use them. But now, after a year i want s working awning, but not a manual one that has to be cranked all that jazz. I want to push a button OUT/IN and be done with it.

I want a top of the line unit. Any positive experiences lately? I will have my local shop order it and install it. Just looking to avoid sub par units.

Thanks!

Most of use with a power awning got whatever came on our RV when we bought it. Carefree of Colorado is a major supplier. Girard is what comes on the million dollar coaches. There's the kind with arms on the side of the RV and "armless" styles that just extend out from the roof line (and get damaged in the slightest wind). Of course, Dometic and Lippert make everything in the world for RVs so, they are an option.

I've never bought an awning... just bought an RV and it came with one.
