Hi. I've seen a new Montana super lux awning (previous model) size 15 for £504. Aluminium easy grip frame is an extra £50 and the fibre tech frame is an extra £92.
I was wondering if dorema are reasonable awnings and whether this sounds a good price? Also are they straightforward to put up?
Secondly would people recommend aluminium or fibre glass frames or just plain steel? Our previous awning was steel and it was fine apart from the pole bag bring very very heavy!!
Thanks

the only silly question is the one you do not ask.

We have the Montana super lux with fibre frame ( chosen to save weight over steel) - excellent awning. Bought direct from Dorema at the M62 depot - if I remember correctly it was £55o 18 months ago.
