I usually put up my awning, but the construction is flimsy as mentioned, though mine is manual. You have to put a lot of pressure on the plastic clamps. Both broke on my first two trips. I had them replaced under warranty, but then one broke a second time. They should have been made of metal. I have to use plyers to open and close the clamps after they break. The clamps only cost about $8, but you have to have the tools to remove and replace rivets. The awning is very poorly designed.
