Our ex-showroom Starcampa Magnum 260x260, is on its last legs. It leaked from the day we got it and seemed the fabric was distorted, yellowed - as if someone had a BBQ in it. Poles were a mixed mess needing repairs too, so a generally bad buy.
What I found annoying with the 'fishing rod' fibre poles was that the ferrules always caught the fabric, when trying to slide them into their pockets. The last lightweight I had of this type, the pole ends ended up punching holes through the pocket ends, so with this I added an aerosol spray cap, to the end of each pocket to prevent it. That worked well.
For next next year I have agreed to purchase a lightly used Bradcott Aspire Air 260 x 260, complete with the Bradcott 12v pump - my first air awning, after some research. I hope I have made the right decision?
I have just sold an Bradcott full awning. Full awnings and their heavy frames were just getting too heavy for me to manage and unnecessary now, with just two o us and the dog..
