How long have you had your awning - do you have any instructions you could email me (blgodfrey@whsmithnet.co.uk)hi robert,have just bought panorama xl and put it up to try,because of work i had to leave up during the recent high winds and very heavy rain. it remained standing with not a drop of water inside.it only takes 10-15 mins to erect and the material/build quality seem very high, money well spent!
