Ordered a Bradcot 260 aspire air2  at the Nec show and picked it up last Tuesday then used it the following day for 3 nights. I've found that the corner legs bend and more so after pegging it out. Just wondering if anyone has got one and what there thoughts are. 

I've also got the aspire air 390 which is a 2015 model and I find I don't have any problems with that one.

    If you mean where the end air beams curve round at the front above the doors, yes, my 2016 model does that. Best described as it "Kinks in"

    Mine does that a little but nowhere near as bad as that  Gaz. The area I mentioned is the bit above your head as you walk through the opening on each end.

    They are very helpful at Bradcot if you get in touch with them.

    Thanks milothedog,

    Yeah been in touch with Bradcot just waiting now for them to send out another awning. I was just interested to see if anyone else has had the same problem.

    Quick update. Received replacement awning but it was still no better so returned it back to Glossop caravans. Found the quality of the aspire2 awning no where near as good as my original aspire 390 which I bought in 2015. Decided to go with a Isabella magnum coal 250 which I got at a good price and a Isabella Bolon groundsheet free of charge. Just like to say thanks to Dominic (Glossop Caravans) for his help and great service he provided.

    Shame about that and something for others to be aware of if there is an issue with them ?  Best of luck with your Isabella.

    I'm looking to buy a full size awning next year, either air frame or poles, so much choice out there........
