Can’t comment on them as never had one.
Have had a Dorema poled awning and I thought the quality was good.

We found that having a midi awning sized between a porch and full size was ideal. It gave more than enough space fir four plus two dogs. It could have a an annex for youngsters or friends to sleep in. The big plus was if you changed vans you don’t take a financial hit to change awnings. We bought a little used Isabella Magnum for less than half price. Our was poled as I prefer that type as easier to carry in the car with less weight in the respective bags.Hi thanks for your ideas. I did look at a porch but my wife likes it cozy and prefers the sealed sides all round the caravan plus we have two young boys so hopefully plenty of years left with the same caravan. The isabella is a bit to much money I’m edging towards Dorema
Don’t know about Bradcot but the Isabella Magnum ( midi rather than porch) and a Dorema porch both fitted very well, but they were erected with carbon fibre or grp poles not air awnings.Hi thanks for your thoughts. My wife is not keen on porches as the sides leave gaps for air to pass through but saying that I have no experience with porches does the bradcot fit snug to side of caravan
The Isabella goes up flat against the side of the caravan and has a huge pads to stop draughts at either end. You get more of a draught by the wheel arch.Hi thanks for your thoughts.

If its because of the seal to the caravan that you want a full awning, the Isabella offerings seal very very well so I wouldn't let that put you off.
