Hi

Have had a caravan for 3 months now and love it. We purchased a cheap porch awning which suits our needs for short weekends but are now looking at a full size awning for our caravan. The size is 990 and have been looking at Bradcot but as we are new to this
don't know which manufacturers are the best.

We have excluded air awnings due to limited availability and costs infull sized awnings.

Any advice on manufacturers is greatly appreciated

    Guess it depends on your budget the market leader is Isabella very expensive but many people say well worth it think prices go upto about £2000, we have a NR awning cost about £700 and served us well but understand they are no longer in business after the
    recent flooding, Dorema another well know brand hope this helps

    Bradcot do a full size inflatable awning:

    There is a discussion in this section under Modul Air awning that gives impressions.

    As stated in that thread if we were after a full size awning, the modul air would be our choice given our experience of the Aspire Air 390 we have. We don't want a full awning as looking out of the lounge into an awning kind of defeats the object

    Why not have a good look round on the next site you stay at?

    See what you like and talk the owners.
