ALL-TOPVehicle Awning 270 Degree 8.2' Rooftop Pull-Out Retractable 4x4 Weather-Proof UV50+ Side Awning for SUV/Truck/Van

Such a great awning! Great quality, provided amazing shade, waterproof, and hardware was top notch! Stability is amazing even without the tie-downs. Will be purchasing again!

Selected this awning as it was the only overland style awning that was 10' long and wasn't stupid expensive. Install was fairly straight forward, however I wish they had included a half dozen each of the short bolts for van applications. I have a pop up roof van and needed third party brackets to make it work. I got it installed but had to take an angle grinder with a cut off wheel to shorten the bolts and smooth them once installed to avoid interference with my pop top.My brackets are the Wasatch Overland Ford Shorts, and with the awning fully cinched up with the straps in in the awning, the awning barely clears the doors. Added cinch straps are needed on the bag itself to pull the bag up higher to keep it out of the doors. The ties shown are temporary just to get it functioning.Looks like they included decent enough guy lines, but they also included the same junk stakes that most modern tents and such come with that are just a bent piece of metal. I keep a set of heavy duty stakes, and a set of the auger / screw in stakes for a cordless drill to drive in that should cover all my needs here.Materials seem first rate, excluding the plastic end bits, so far. I don't think they are exactly mission critical though. Long story short, this is exactly the size awning my camper needed, and aside from it obviously not having taken pop top camper vans into consideration, you know like Colorado Campervans, the classic VW Westfalia, or my Sportsmobile, probably many others... it falls into the category of must have gear. Obviously it would have to be taken down for big winds, but this will allow me to have a less insanity inducing living space should I encounter multi day torrential rain slogs in my travels.Just a quick update on the cracked plastic end piece. I called all top and they sent me a replacement with no hassle. I haven't installed it yet but that's coming.After deploying it and hurling it back up a couple of times I have some bits of advice. For starters lock the legs in place. The ones at the end need to not be able to slide out and the ones that extend from the main frame. As soon as you open the bag deploy those and lock them in place so you can put the awning piece onto the arms without too much hassle. I tried to do a setup video of it but well my camera died. Maybe I will add one later. There are people that hate bag type awnings. Honestly this thing's perfect for this van for me and I do have some issues limiting range of movement so if I can do it almost anyone can.

So my review is actually pretty positive. The awning is pretty well made and I would say well worth the price (priced very competitively). Not the easiest to set up solo, but with two people it would take less than a minute. Packs up well, I think it’s a great product (6.6’x10’) mounted flush to the side of my truck camper. BUT 4 stars instead of 5 and it’s mostly my fault, but in high winds and trying to take it down solo, my poles and frame got destroyed. I just couldn’t do it alone without the top grabbing the wind and it whipped all over the place. Mine is pretty much useless now, but lesson learned. There are VERY similar awnings available for half the cost but I ordered a front and side wall and so I’ll be replacing mine with another All-Top awning. If you are careful in high wind conditions (mine was handling 10-15 mph steady winds fine, it was the storm squall that caught me by surprise, probably 25-30 mph that messed me up) and if you have an extra person to setup and tear down, I would definitely recommend the awning.

Bought this because it was inexpensive and we weren't sure we wanted a canopy for our camper van but it's perfect! Covers large area and seems to be well made. Very easy to pull out and sturdy when legs and side arms are set.

I bought the ALLTOP Shower Canopy for camping trips and overlanding, and it’s one of those pieces of gear you don’t realize you needed until you have it. Total game-changer for backcountry hygiene.Setup was fast and frustration-free — under 2 minutes solo. It’s lightweight but sturdy, and the included stakes and guy lines keep it grounded even in breezy conditions. I’ve used it on rocky terrain and muddy riverbanks with no problem.Inside, there’s plenty of room to move around without feeling cramped. The zippered door provides solid privacy, and the mesh vents keep air circulating so you’re not sweating inside. I’ve used it for everything: quick showers, changing clothes, even as a makeshift toilet shelter.Bonus: it packs up easily.If you’re looking for a reliable, portable privacy tent that holds up to real use — not just backyard testing — this is the one.

It’s kinda a pain to set up in less than desirable conditions. Wish the canopy had some kind of spring loaded feature to collapse and expand the canopy. Exterior bag sags like gmas tiddys. Has no effect on performance, it’s just very unsightly.

This was really easy to install on my teardrop's existing roof rail. It's easy to use as well - unlike some of these, one person can handle it. It opens out on a folding bracket and locks into place, then just roll it back up and collapse it.

Nice awning with a good price. Sets up easy with no help. Great addition to my camper.
