We recently bought the Driveaway Movelite XL which was a great choice for space, brightness and looks. Unfortunately when it rains we have puddles inside coming from saturated zips. We wondered if anyone else has had this problem as it is spoiling all the pleasure of having the extra space. Puzzled

We have an NR Awning Motor Villa and it has been out in some pretty abysmal weather and not leaked. I suggest you complain to the vendor and get them to replace it.

Sounds as though the zips need seam sealing, on some awnings I have had previously they came with a bottle of seam sealer that you used to do the stiching around the zips first time you used it.
