Of Colorado HD Awning Stabiliz'r Pole Kit - Awning Pole & Tie Down Kit - RV Awning Support & Accessories (108" Extended Length)

I finally got to use these awning supports with our new trailer. My old trailer had the manual awning supports and handled wind better. The new electronic awning isn’t as heavy duty so the supports are really important if it’s raining or windy. I would t use this for heavy wind as it’s only as strong as the stake you put in the ground to hold the support in place, but it definitely helps. Couple minor suggestions: I’m going to cut a PVC tube about two inches long so the foot of the support will sit in the ground. That way my dog won’t pull it away when her leash tangles with it. A small stake would also work through the plastic foot on the pole, even one just a few inches long. I’m also going to get a heavier duty stake for the strap, at least when I’m on soft ground. Last suggestion and an easy fix, the u-shaped hook at the top that the awning sits in simply sits on top of the pole. It falls off easy when it’s not in use. Something that had a push fit would be a little better.

Credit to Amazon for taking this "junk" back. Many flaws...in order of importance: ~ The "cradle" on the top that holds the awning drum has a socket for the pole-pin that is ridiculously flimsy. Instead of a 1/4" hole in a solid chunk of plastic, this thing has a flimsy "spiderweb" design that failed after 2 uses. ~ The tie-down strap is useless. The wind just spools the strap back out of the nonsense that is passed off as a clamp. Pointless...to the degree that a mild puff of wind pulled the strap, the awning lifted off the pole, and the pole hit my wife on the head! ~ The locking mechanism to set the length of the poles works well, but fundamentally it's a 1/4"x20 nut with a plastic knob just pushed onto it. In this case, the nut should be molded into the knob, but it's just a press fit. One knob fell off on the first use. Yes, I can put it back, but the lightweight plastic knob can blow away easily. I had to chase mine down...on day one! ~ After just two weekends, the padding in the cradle in which the awning drum rests was coming off. Visually, this thing is brilliant in its design, but the execution is dreadful. And given that a VERY expensive awning is depending on this thing to reinforce it in modest wind, this poor execution is more of a hazard than a help. Add insult to injury with the price of this thing, and I'm a VERY unhappy camper. Carefree should be ashamed of putting such a ridiculous contraption on the market.

Our awnings don’t come with a lot of support so previously any breeze I was bringing the awnings in. I purchased these and it was absolutely great to be able to use our awnings this past weekend. Wouldn’t have been able to use without them. I bought this set for the shorter awning but had to buy a different set that costs more than double these are because these are not tall enough for 13.5 foot trailers. I even used blocks on these so they weren’t extended as far and were a lot more stable. Work great. So nice to be able to use our awnings now. If you’re on the fence purchase these. I did take a 6’ ladder to put on and glad I did

I bought these for my RV. It has an 18' awning design that has no support arms similar to those in the photo. I am not sure of the engineer who designed it, but they seem to be pretty well detached from reality. An awning that cantilevers off the side of your RV 9' with no support at all? Then consider how poorly RV construction is. The awning mounts may or may not be screwed into anything substantial. On its best day it is a poor design. I believe even with no wind or wind gusts these awnings would rip the mounting screws out. If you are unsure do an internet search and you will find tons of complaints related to this design. I shake my head as to why any reputable RV manufacturer would include them on their rigs from the factory other than they don't care. The awning manufacturer provides a solution - These supports are essentially prop rods that prop rods that support the unsupported roller of the extended awning. They are easily adjusted for height. They are provide an arguably even more important function of holding down the awning in the event of light winds through the ingenious way the straps are routed. This product is well thought out and well made. The only downside is they are probably twice as expensive as they should be. There are many cheap DIY solutions out there, but I did not have the time to mess with them.

I love being able to leave our awning out without worrying about wind or rain. We are in Texas, and the weather can change on a dime. We live in our motorhome, and these supports are a godsend. We're on our second kit because we had an unexpected storm that knocked out one support, bending it. We purchased the supports after buying our Sun Shade Screen, and it keeps everything secure, even on windy days. We put clips on the support ropes so they can't come off the awning.

Posts or vertical supports were good but plastic arc support for awning on top easily falls off (not secure to post). Straps hook into a notch on the back side in plastic arc support instead of wrapping fully around the awning and positively securing it to posts. If wind gets under the awning and raises it even a little the posts tilt backwards allowing the straps to loosen and allow the awning to flop. Good design in theory but needs some modifications to improve durability

this product was easy to set up and was sturdy, we tend to camp at the coast and can get some pretty windy days/nights, we use this to add extra support to a room tent that attaches to the awning and camper. In the past you would need to roll up awning as it would flap and bounce around causing loads of noise and stress on the awning arms and fabric. with these two support arms and straps the awning had no up and down movement and helped stabilize the tent/awning structure.

This is a must for the carefree electric awning.

pour fixer a un auvent care free pour VR pros master wenabago fonction tres bien

Parfait. Conforme à ce que je voulais

Très fragile Mécanisme de fixation peu fiable Risque de bris sur un auvent de roulette Télescopique Oui, complètement inutile Gaspillage d'argent assuré

Works perfect with the awning on our Lance travel trailer (exactly like the product photo is showing). Very good support. Works with all trailer brands using the same kind of electric awning (Carefree Latitude awning). Would buy it again, I think, the awning needs that support on windy days.
