I cant decide between these two, the sunncamp is a bit heavier/sturdier/smarter, but the Towsure panama is lighter/easier

Does anyone have experience of these two, what do you like about them?

 

Towsure Panama

sunncamp ultima

Can't comment on the Sunncamp but my sister had the Panama last year and regrets it. She says she wishes she'd had something sturdier.

I know a few who've got Sunncamp porch awnings and are very pleased with them. I did buy a Towsure Panama last year and took it straight back, it leaked worse than a colander


Now use an Outdoor Revolution porch awning which has been very good, but probably out for a Kampa Rally later in the year.

Thats interesting , we got rid of our big old isabella awning , to get something lighter smaller, but sounds like your sister didnt find it very good. 

 

Is your Outdoor revolution a compactalite ? 

 

 

I do like the kampa ralleys, but they are over my budget at the moment .Are they worth the extra money?

We have had a couple of sunncamp 260s. We think they are very good. We have sold our canvas full & porch awning as we only use the sunncamp.
