Quality of packaging

Product was excellent and installation went fast and easy. The only improvement needed is better packaging and shipping. Packaging was damaged but luckily the awning was not. The awning retainer that is mounted onto the camper was the only thing bent in shipping. But we did not need it because our camper had one already installed.The cardboard tube that held awning and equipment was sealed on one end but not on other. The tube had a hole punched in it two different places. One looked to be a…

Pros
  • Measure between the outside edges of both Slide-Out flanges and order the Slide Topper size that allows for total fabric coverage over the Slide-Out box  (the fabric itself will measure 5" shorter than the complete awning width)
Cons
  • The Solera V000163298 Slide Topper Awning may not be able to fully cover some larger RV models

Missing 11 screws good for me

The awning itself looks to be fine, but the instructions say to put a screw in every hole and I'm short 11 screws (the RV square drive ones that are a little tougher to find). We had a bunch of shipping fiascos as well (one arrived with both ends of the shipping tube crushed and ripped wide open, the second was delivered somewhere else and I was only able to track it down because that person's order was dropped off at my house). At this point its been a frustrating venture and now I have to…

Pros
  • Will be putting this on a 9ft slide out room once Christmas rush is over!!
Cons
  • The Solera V000163298 Slide Topper Awning may not withstand severe weather conditions

Works perfectly on my Grand Design Imagine 2500RL

Ordered this awning right after I purchased my RV. I watched a few videos on how to install it. It was very easy to install as it took only a couple of hours. I am on the road with it now and learned very quickly it was well worth the price. The first 2 campgrounds I stayed at had lots of trees with lots of debris falling from them. Glad I don't have to get on top of the RV and clean off the slideout every time I pull it back in. Money well spent IMHO.

Pros
  • Easy to install , helps keeping the leaves and debris off the slides
Cons
  • The Solera V000163298 Slide Topper Awning may not fit perfectly on some RV models, causing it to be less effective
