Hi Folks, going to purchase an awning shortly. I like the Dorema Daytona and see it comes as a standard pole version and an Air supported version. The Air version is £700 more expensive than the poles version.
Is it worth the money? In fact are any Air awnings worth the money?
Posted on 12/05/2019 23:08 by dinnyHi bought a vango air awning last year and have to say its a cracking bit of kit and easy to put up but it does thread in my wind out canopy which i think does make it easier to put up . Did have pole awnings in the past with my caravans but prefer the air awning so does wife no more deaf and doom suppers

it seems there are 'votes' for both sides here, but what is interesting is that no one who has used an air awning said they will go back to poles, the opposite in fact.
At the end of the day it is what will suit you and what you will be happy using RR. If you could get some experience of using both that would certainly help.

Air for me, yes they weigh more when packed up, but i do't agree with the suggestion that a pole awning can be put up as quick as an air awning. that's just the psychical limits of the individual,10 minutes maximum for mine from taking out the bag, feeding in the channel and inflating. pegging down time is the same as a pole awning and takes as long as it takes given the pitch your on.

Posted on 13/05/2019 20:39 by davetommoI have an Isabella magnum and a bradcot aspire air 260. I don’t find that it is faster putting up the air awning. Well I have used both and the air awning is up for sale, so cornersteady you now know someone who is going back to poles
