PeggyC - Having a retractable awning allows you to use the patio or deck with the sun beating down. It's like having another room.

We got ours about 16 years ago and have certainly gotten our money's worth out of it. I had done some research and at the time and Durosal seemed to be the way to go. There are certainly many changes that have been made since then.

How are those awnings for rain? We are OK on shade on our rear patio, but would love to have better protection for rainstorms that come up when we are out there. So far, we have just rigged up a big blue tarp plus we have one of those free standing canopies, for when weather threatens a planned event.

@peggy those are nice! The only thing is, no netting so no outdoors at night & what to attach them to?

And w/chandelier.
I heard plenty good things about Maplewood Awning and Aluminium Awnings - but the price for a 10ft wide awning was $3500 (incl. removal of the old and install of the new awning). Awnings from online sellers such as Durasol or Sunsetter are a lot less. Has anyone a good experience with similar sellers?
Thank you!
