Hi all,

Right, I have finally got my awning, a Dorema 'Exclusive' at what I think was a barging price, 2nd hand off of flee bay.

I now want an annex, the tall type for storing all the kids 'clutter'.

Looking on Dorema website, all the annesx's have exactly the same measurements of 215 x 210 CM and practically look all the same, however, there can be a vast difference in price.

I've rung Dorema themselves and they say that only the 'Exclusive' annex will fit the 'Exclusive' awning, but how can that be when the dimensions are exactly the same for all the other annex's?

They tell me that the 'Hacienda' annex for example will NOT fit the 'Exclusive' awning, yet both are identical annex sizes. Surly it makes business sence to just make one annex that fits the range?

Anyone experianced this or is it just marketing spin to get more money out of something because the original awning is more expensive? 

Thanks.

There is an annex for the dorema exclusive currently for sale on e bay..in blue and grey.  It is in excellent condition, I went to see it as it's for sale in the same village as me, but it will not fit my awning.

Whats the item number Scarlets fan? I've searched this morning and cant find it!

Thanks.

I also had the same issue with the very same awning. I managed to purchase an annexe off ebay that had YKK zips (same as Exclusive) which was not an Exclusive annex and the seller listed as being compatible with 3 other Dorema awnings. I cant look back on Ebay as the listing was private and is now closed. I think the important thing is to match the zip configuration but there may be others who can give you more info.
