    Good job, been waiting for a decent review of this. Thanks 👍 just wondering what it comes with to connect it to the caravan at the top please? Does ot have any straps to throw over or points on the awning to connect straps to please? I don't have a keder rail to slide it into unfortunately

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  Рік тому +1

      It only has the usual awning rail slide on attachment. The 2 sides that effectively press against the caravan only have velcro straps to hold poles in place. Poles are not supplied with the awning.

    hi,
    this is a great light weight awning, just used it this weekend.
    i noticed there is 2 brass rings on the front flap, is there any way of using these to hold up the front flap like a canopy

    Hi, thanks for the great review. Can I ask if there are eyelets on the sides where it sits against the van please, (so that I can secure with limpets?). Or can limpets be used without eyelets? (Awning and limpet newbie here!)

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  Рік тому

      Thank you for your comments. There are no eyelets, only velcro straps to hold poles. There are tools out there to put your own eyelets in but this would need more investigation.

      Hi John. I'm not 100% sure tbh. It may do with the correct type of attachment, but this would need more research. My experience is only limited to touring caravans.

    • @mrgari189
      @mrgari189 Рік тому +1

      The height may be an issue - if your campervan is the same height as a caravan then you should be okay but smaller campervans tend to be about 2m High and this is about a foot higher.

    A question for you to answer, if you'd be so kind. I bought a secondhand one of these for my old T4 campervan [which is now extremely poorly and can't be used]. As a stopgap, I've got an OLD [1992] 340/2 little caravan. I'm wondering if I might be able to attach the awning to the caravan.
    Obviously (!), the caravan is aluminium, so my magnetic strip feeder won't work. Is there anywhere at the top where I could attach cord/rope to it, to tie the top down to the other side of the caravan? If not, I'll sell it!

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  11 місяців тому +1

      I'm not too familiar with the caravan you have. If its the Compass 340/2 I believe it has a traditional awning rail as most caravans do. You should be able to attach this awning to that rail.

      Did I miss the memo? I never thought Royal thing was in Wales. Why would it be? I don't even follow the Royals in any way and even I knew what ever was happening was happening in London. This probably sounds dumb, but both Wales and Scotland are part of England right? Is Northern Ireland still part of the Empire?

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  Місяць тому

      The clue is in the name. United Kingdom. England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are all individual countries that belong to the United Kingdom. King Charles III is the monarch who resides over all of these countries. Believe it or not the UK does not just consist of London.

    How did you connect it to the caravan the two sides?? Found that to be a failing

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  11 місяців тому

      I didn't connect it. Just pegged it down so the sides were as close as possible. I believe you can get some poles if you wish, to encourage a tighter fit. I have found it fine without them. However I only use the awning in good weather conditions. I don't think it would fair well in strong winds.

    You do realise you set the awning up to high, right? The bottom flaps are supposed to be ON the ground and the pegs go through the rings at each corner.

    @rorymax8233 11 місяців тому

    Hi Charlie,
    After buying one of these after your review I find myself very disappointed.
    I'm certainly not blaming you for this Charlie, let me make that very clear to everyone.
    So, I bought it (check my last post on here and it can be seen when I purchased it), this awning has serious defects after only 5 days of use on it's first outing, the main tube covering fabric is severely frayed in 2 places, so far i have not been able to ascertain why this has occured as the main tube is not in close proximity to anything likely to cause abrasion to the surface material.
    I'm in touch with Aldi warranty department, that is not going very well either as the warranty aspect is handled by an organisation\company called StreetWise, and they have been abysmally poor to deal with, so much so that I have reverted to Aldi customer services direct and asked them to deal with the matter as sellers of the product, my contract is with Aldi and not StreetWise who I have very much lost faith in.
    I hope I am in the minority but I cannot recommend this awning to anyone.

    • @caravanningwithcharlie
      @caravanningwithcharlie  11 місяців тому +1

      I'm sorry to hear that your awning is not satisfactory. That's a real shame. I've used ours now about 4 times and it has performed really well each time. I hope Aldi resolve your issue soon.
