We are so excited and can’t wait to use this in the late afternoon when the sun beats on our deck and we can’t even sit out there!

Beautiful awning that truly extends the use of our deck. It's only been a few days, and I can't imagine outdoor living without it.

What a smart investment for one's house! We can now sit on the patio without getting sun burnt. The awning will close on its own if the wind picks up, that is worth every penny. The color matches the house and the housing blends in too.
