@@CaravanEscapades101 just shy of 9 meters, does mean we have to check sites properly before we book as the van is 8ft wide and the awning is 3.25 wide, find most of the caravan and camping pitches too small, do you have any troubles finding bigger pitches?
Hi Jame another good vlog we have the Kampa dometic club air pro 330 with just the left hand extension did consider the all weather one but it was a lot heavier.Engoy the rest of your holls 👍😀
We do enjoy it, We did go for the all season as we caravan all year round and also normally in the south of France for 3 weeks, and the all season is supposed to stand up better to the UV's, It does make it heavier though, Thanks for watching James
Great review as always, plenty of room for the three of you 😂! We are using one of the extensions and really pleased with it give us a decent bit of extra space.
Good review. We looked at this when we got our new caravan in April, but went for a Vango Varkala Connect instead - found it a bit easier to pitch/peg than Kampa we had before. Thanks James - useful review. George and Trish CaravanningMacs
Hi, that doesn't sound right. Are you on level ground as sometimes as tbis can have an affect. Also, i have found when setting the awning up. It is worth having the doors in and fully zipped up before pegging down and chexk while doing it to see if they can still easily be opened. I am not sure if that helps, but hopefully, it might.
@mattharrison462 Hi, no problem. Itvis manufactured by Brunner, it's not the cheapest but has lasted well. www.brunner.it/fr/accelerate/2715-accelerate.html
Hi Thanks for watching and commenting, I get the flag poles and flags from Amazon. If you search for telescopic flag pole you should be able to find them in different lengths, Hope that helps and happy camping. James
Thanks for the review👍 We have just purchased the 390 Grande all season, having upgraded from the 390 Rally Pro. We are off to France at the end of the week so will use it for the first time. We have no extensions as of yet but this as been helpful as my adult son & his partner are keen to join us on a trip in the future. Ours is a motorhome so the extra space it gives us is invaluable. The only downside that i can see is that they have done away with the roof light on the Grande, On your review it looked a little dark inside. Do you find that or was it just the camera? One again thanks for the Vlog & happy camping…..Jim🍺
Hi Thanks for watching, that was the main reason for purchasing this awning is that we would use it in France for 3 weeks a year and the all season does stand up better to UV;s as is supposed to help keep it cooler. Not having the Roof Windows, does make it a little darker but only slightly. I have the Kampa Sabre lights which work well in the evenings. Thanks again for watching. James
we have just brought the dometic 500 with both extensions we use the bed pods kids absolutely love it
Nice one, Glad you like it, what is the overall length when both pods are on ?

Thank you, Yes only just enough space for the 3 of us, lol. We do like the way we can separate the extra area's off, Thanks for watching. James

Thank You, James
Any tips for setup. Not able to zip and unzip the door without pulling the roof down. Almost as if the front pole if too long

The last thing I want to do after putting up an awning, is putting up more awning LOL. Looks great though LOL
Lol I know what you mean, we do like our space. Only put up the extensions on long breaks. Thanks for watching. James
Hi,was just wondering if you have any info on the table you have in your awning
