awning question

[roamingaz]

I have a ARB awning on the rear of my camper, I like it but take some skill to set up alone. I want another awning for the side of my camper and I have been looking at the Fiamma awnings. Anyone on here have experience with them?

I was going to get the Fiamma one when I ran across the Campinglabs one.
I find it pretty easy to setup myself.
Taking it down is a little harder, but I can get it done pretty fast.

We have the Fiamma F35 and love it. We looked at most of the awnings before purchasing and this one just worked best for us. It stays clean and dry in the case and it's easy to deploy/stow by yourself (only takes a few tries to figure out the "trick" to doing it solo). It's not huge by any means but it provides just enough shade for me, my wife and our 2 pups.

I have the Fiamma F35 Pro and use it all the time.

It's easy to deploy and put back up by yourself once you do it a couple of times.

We fit them to our trailers, and Mario has two on his FlipPac.

High quality components all encased in an aluminum shell.

The F35 Pro is an easy one person deployment and put-away.

Stands up to high winds, and provides a nice shaded spot out of the sun.

We have them in stock be more than happy to send one your way.

I also had the Fiamma 35 on my AT Horizon. Pulled that sucker through literally hundreds and hundreds of miles of overgrown trails. I kept thinking the Fiamma would get destroyed...but it kept coming back for more . It even survived a roll over...with nary more than a few scratches. I was very impressed with its performance, ease of opening/closing and certainly its durability: Its "Dan proof" :coffeedrink:.

I just wish they would make the same awning but 1 foot longer in each direction...

Get the Fiamma

Outstanding product. I love mine.

I agree, go with the Fiamma all the way.

I have both the ARB and the Fiamma and the Fiamma is way better.
Durable, easier to setup and keeps tighter. The ARB is cheap, poles
get jammed and is a PITA to setup by yourself (the 8 footer we have).
The clips that hold the unit together rolled up in the bag have already
broke on our ARB too. The Fiamma rolls up into the metal casing.

Both deployed.. in high winds.


Both deployed in the rain.

Is the rear of the Fiamma like the back of the ARB/Campinglab ones?
Reason I ask, mine mounts to my Yakima crossbars with these brackets.

The Fiamma awning is in an aluminum case.

You could bolt straight through the case and use your brackets no problem.

Thanks Martyn.
