Good for the price paid
Pretty nifty, does what it's supposed to do on most rainy days and keeps some of the sun out of the room. The only warning is a wind driven rain will come in thru the open sides. It's good overall, but wouldn't recommend it being hung over a side door.

Not worth the price.
Product was as described ,but it arrived (I had it shipped to my home) with minor dents along the one edge. Rather than go through hassle of returning it, I decided to just bend them back the best I could and install side rails over them. That dents were successfully hidden. Then I discovered one set of pre-drilled holes for the support rails under the awning were in the wrong place. So I had to drill my own holes. That leaves three holes with nothing in them. I filled them with silicon. I am a 48-year-old woman. I had no problem putting this together (although the directions weren't very descriptive) by myself. After installing it, I realize it is probably only a matter of time before a tree branch falls on it and takes it out. For the cost, $350, I could have bought enough lumber and shingles and built a sturdier roof. Now I wish I did. But this was convenient. I would only recommend this for a house in the city where there are no trees. Also, I would recommend picking it up at the store instead of having it delivered. I am sure the damage happened from standing the package on end. Package should have been labeled to keep on its side.

Old design that still works.
This style has been around for years but has been upgraded with colors. The instructions could have been better. One tip: level the front by adjusting one support bar in or out and then tighten down the set screws.

Good product
I am completely satisfied with the new awning. The company addressed the only problem that I had with one I purchased several years ago. You now supply clips to secure the awning cover to the frame to eliminate rattling.
The one that I bought earlier DID NOT have those clips in the package. Can I request that the company send me a set of these clips so that I can "retrofit" the original awning?

Quality awning for the money
When I received the awnings I was surprised by the ease of assembly and the clear, illustrated instructions. Installation was a breeze and the sturdy construction keeps rain and snow off my doorway. Even the tree snapping wet snow that we got this October didn't sag or deform them. I'm definately impressed.

Great over the back door
This looks great over the back door. It works very well to keep the area dry. Was not too hard to assemble and install.

Wish I got the bigger one
The assembly was a little difficult in that not every thing lined up as it should have. had to be a little creative to get it together.
Went up easy enough although you will need at least another person.
once up worked great until it started to rain, Have single drip coming in. so I push up on the roof covering and it will stop for a while. also should have gottten the 46 or 48 inch depth one just for more protection from rain....

Very nice!
This canopy is great for keeping rain and sun out. Recently, it's REALLY helped keep my room cool during our August/September heat-wave. My only caveat is that before purchasing the canopy, make sure you have the wood framing in the wall to bolt all sides of the canopy in (my handyman had to get creative on one wall that didn't have the wood beam to support it). Otherwise, it's a great product for the price.

Does a great job and looks good doing it.
Although the instructions left a lot to be desired (it took me a couple of times to figure out how to orient the components properly for assembly), and the pre-fabricated holes did not alway match-up, the finished product absolutely works like a charm and it looks great too. I am very pleased with the purchase.

this product works great over our backdoor. It really helps to keep the sun.
This product is a home saver because it helps to keep the sunlight from coming in thru our south door to our den thus keeping the house cooler and keeping the electric bill lower

love this product
We installed this awning over french doors on the south side of our house. It works great for keeping the sun from heating up the doors, and is a real plus to have when it is raining. I would reccomend these awnings for anyone. Easy installing, and durable make this a great buy.

Basic ... simple ... easy ... functional ... priced right
About as easy to install as hanging a picture. The assembly takes a bit of time with small screws to handle. I painted mine Hunter Green to match other awnings on the house and the paint went on nicely after a fine sanding of the original white. It's very ordinary-looking but does the job of keeping the sun out of, and the rain off the back door and window in it. I have very gusty winds here and will await one of their visits before I attest to the awning's sturdiness in wind, however, I used toggle bolts in alternate holes just in case, but as an awning it's good as they come.

This awning was perfect to replace the 30+ year old similar one that was damaged by the heavy snow we had in New England this year. The material is not sturdy until it is all screwed together and then it feels ROCK SOLID!!! (some assembly required) Make sure you have a helper with this project as it cannot be tackled alone. The instructions were clear and easy for a layman to read. This item was purchased online without being able to touch or see it in the store, and the picture online was a good representation of the product! I Plan on buying another 2 within 6 months for a rental property.

Door canopy nice, once it's assembled
This canopy is very nice once it's assembled and installed. I purchased two. I comes in a million pieces and takes some time to put it together correctly. Patience is important. I would not recommend this to anyone who is not mechanically inclined.

Simple, but solid
The best thing about this awning it the price. The style could be improved, but for the price, it does what it suppose to.
