My offroad trailer came with the OVS 270. First trip out, a gust of random wind blew through camp and snapped the tow rear spreader bars. My fault. I didnt use the support poles or guy lines. I got home and called OVS and explained the issue. They asked for my address. I got two new replacement poles in a week, no charge! Thats customer service. I ALWAYS use the poles and guy lines and never use the awning in high winds. This past weekend in Montana it was blazing hot with a slight breeze. I used all the poles and guy lines. I STILL cracked a rear spreader bar. It cracked right at the weld. Im not sure how to avoid that in the future. They are aluminum and lightweight. For me, Im keeping the OVS rolled up and will use an EzUp going forward.
@@OneFlewOver1776 it reflects a good bit. Not that you feel no heat under, but the temp difference is substantial. I think it's a must have if you're in full sun a lot.
I like it a lot. It's a good value for the $$. If interested in more details here's a full review I did recently on it: ua-cam.com/video/zNEW2l0vaa8/v-deo.html

Do you feel any heat under the awning because it looks thin? Nice review.

@@AdventureRocks ok thanks.
Welds look fine.
How do you like your roof top tent?

Is it me, or is that weld discussed at 4:30 - 5:00 mark, really bad and weak?
Great question. The sun might make it look worse in video. But I believe it's just soot from magnesium.
