Hi Everyone,

A family friend has just given us a sunncamp swift porch awning for us to use with our ranger when we pick it up in a few weeks. Although we are getting a full awning with the van we wanted something suitable for short breaks or for when we didn't want to take the full awning. They had this left from their last van and have kindly let us have it. As we don't have the van yet to try it on I just wondered if anyone has used one and could comment on how easy it is to put up and use? Would it be big enough for two of us to sit under in the evenings?

Darren

One of the easiest porches to put up with two steel upright poles and a fibreglass one in the top. small but it is possible for two people to sit in it - floor area 2.2 metres by 2.25 metres

I have one, put it up myself in 20 minutes, and have seated three (at a squeeze) on folding chairs. Perfect for short breaks, although I'd personally keep a close eye on the weather. A gusty wind got up and it didn't fill me with too much confidence!

But for my needs, and for the price, it's great.

Thanks! I am not sure we will get to use it this year but sounds like it will be ideal for some short weekend breaks next year! Has anyone brought a small awning carpet  / ground sheet for it and could recommend one? OH likes the carpet under foot rather than muddy grass
