I watched the erection video and was convinced of it's merits.
My first few attempts have not been straight forward . Opening the canopy is easy enough but the legs are sometimes not easy to put up. I've reread the instructions but I'm struggling to get the hinges to release the rafter bars. Sometimes straight forward another time not so. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong? I also find rolling the blind up is quite heavy for me on my own, and you have to make sure the canvas is tightly rolled otherwise it is too bulky and you have to repeat the operation.
I like the concept but I think the video oversimplified the operation.
I would have preferred the wind down version with a pole but my van walls weren't suitable the newer alutech build is needed. I have come to the conclusion it's expensive for what it is. Also disappointed to find a made in China on one item !
