Nomadic OVS Awning 270 Passenger Side - Dark Gray Cover with Black Cover Universal

If you're considering getting one of these and not sure about the quality since it's on Amazon (that was us 🙋🏻‍♀️), then you'll def want to read this! Hopefully it will answer any questions you may have.We decided on the passenger side because if we are at a campsite we back in and that means the picnic tables and what not are on the passenger side. No regrets on that so far.My husband has probably gone well over 100mph with it on the truck (*zipped up*) and it hasn't even budged. We (let's be real, he) mounted it on our roof bars.The awning itself has held up in some pretty intense Oklahoma wind and rain with the poles on and tied down.We are able to open the back and side windows on our camper shell (or topper if you're from the north) with no problems.We have a tent that connects to the back of an SUV that we sometimes add on and it fits under the awning too.You ARE able to use the awning without the poles and without tying it off. We have even done this in probably 20mph winds and it holds up VERY well.We do plan to get all of the walls at some point and ditch the tent.It's super quick and easy to pull open and to shut it back and zip up.Overall, a great buy for the price!I do plan to update more with picture and video and some more details.Adding to my review... We've had this for almost 2 years now and it's still holding up great. No rips/tears or anything breaking and we use it probably 10 times a year.It has rained on us a few times and water will pool up on top if you don't tie it down so it drains off. Still 5 stars!

Best value awning for the money. It got to me in 4 days. Install was pretty easy for me. I installed on yakama heavy duty bars. The hardware they send is universal. For the heavy duty bars, I had to run to the hardware store. The top bolts they supply, were too small. I used 3/8x1 1/2" carriage bolts for the top groove mount. Super sturdy! As the reviews say, easy deployment, takes a little longer to brake down. I'm sure I'll get better the more we use it. The outer bag is just big enough to hold the awning. I wish the poles, stakes, and guid lines would fit in the bag.

We had a very custom application on a Pup-Up soft-sided truck camper (Palomino SS-1240). Being able to talk w/MFG and get more detailed specs meant that we were confident that this was the unit for our need.After installation we are just more happy than ever. Its sturdy and can be managed by a single person if the winds are mild. SUPER COMPLETE accessories with quality tie-downs and stakes. You could almost tow a car with the beefy securement straps.Its configuration meant we could easily make attachment brackets and have a 100% BOLT ON application with no drilling into the camper's composite structure. One of the easiest custom application installations I've ever had.

This is a great Awning. It comes with everything you need including brackets and hardware to attach the brackets to a trailer that has 1" cross beams (u-bolts, bolts, nylon locking nuts, etc). It came with two additional polls besides the ones that come attached to the awning and all needed straps, ropes and spikes. It is a very generous kit. it has great coverage for a 10'x5' trailer. I will get the side walls next to get additional weather protection when needed. I have seen these walls in action at a recent Expo and it is a great kit with everything needed including great storage bags. Deploying this Awning is fast and simple. Putting it way is more difficult and it pays to follow directions and practice ahead of time so you don't get frustrated when cold or rainy. There is a method and I still find it a little challenging being short to get it all inside the bag and zipped up. There are three straps that hold the awning in place when put away that I wish had a couple of more inches of length to get them initially strapped and make synching up easier. Anyway, that is the reason for my 4 stars. If that was improved, I would give it 5 stars.

We are using this awning in a different way than most. We put it on a truck camper that we rebuilt. It works just as we'd hoped.It covers the whole side of the camper and wraps around and covers the back door. We mounted flag holders for the support legs because the legs aren't long enough to reach the ground when the camper is on the truck, (The truck is pretty high) they work perfectly! The rafters are heavy duty, really strong.There is a learning curve to putting it away as far as getting the cover to zip closed. We get better each time we do it.So happy with this awning.

The media could not be loaded. I put this on my 2018 Nissan NV2500 high top van. I love it! I feel like a picture is worth a thousand words so I’m posting some.PLEASE NOTE: When the instructions say to not deploy this when it’s windy, do not do what I did and accept it as a challenge. They are RIGHT… setting this up and putting it away in the wind is a pain!It offers amazing shade, looks like the build quality is good, I love the functionality so far.Keep in mind this weighs 70 pounds so take care installing it and make sure your roof can support it.
