Awntech Maui-LX Left Motor with Remote Motorized Retractable Awning

Got this in June and have used it every day for 3 months. I chose this because it was the best I could find at this price point with good reviews. Unlike many awnings, this one came assembled which was a big plus. It is quite heavy, and it took two men to put it up. It needs to be securely installed. It comes with a remote and a manual wand, but once you use the remote, you'll really appreciate having it. This is a good heavy-duty unit; there is nothing cheap about it. You can adjust the outward angle and L-R tilt but requires manual adjustment. The remote is to only open and close it, but once you've decided on the angle, there really is no need to keep adjusting it. The awning is good quality and really does keep out the hot afternoon sun from our windows. It has made our outdoor patio actually usable. Check out Awntech's website for more info. Plan to buy an awning protective cover for the winter months. I was a little nervous ordering from Walmart, but it came quickly, in good shape, and they sent me updates when it was shipped.

Appears to be well made. There were no assembly instructions included. After a few extensions of the awning, one arm fell away from the front bar as a nut was missing.

This awning is poor quality. If you try to call the support number no one answers. It does not extend fully without sagging and if it rains it fills up with water. I previously had a Sunsetter awning and never had these issues. I would not recommend purchasing this.
