Dorema Daytona Air awning. Was it a divorce in a bag ????

Erecting our seasonal awning up for the season.

Luckily no divorce in a bag here….. just long silences!!!!!!! 🤣


I have to say it went up very quickly but being up for the season we took a bit of time and fine tweaking to get it secured nicely.


As you will see in the video it was quite stress free. The hardest part was getting the awning through the rail and not really because of the weight but the fact it’s a brand new van and someone forgot the silicone spray that they brought last year in preparation for this exact reason. 🙈


The reasons we went for another air awning was because of the risk of damage from poles hitting the van if it ever gave way to the weather. We had this issue with our very first caravan and we will never go back to a poled awning for that reason alone. Yes you pay a premium for the air but it’s a price worth paying if like me you like the sides of your van to stay damage free.


Making our decision to go with this one was made quite easy after some advice we’d had previously off Mark @Renshawscaravanaccesories. We also paid a visit to the caravan show in March so we could view the short listed awnings when erected.


We had narrowed it down to 2 awnings in the end that fitted into our budget. They were the camptec all season and the Dorema that we purchased. We were close to buying the Camptech one as it was £800 cheaper and came with everything including electric pump, wheeled storage bag, carpets and storm straps (Show deal) but the quality just wasn’t there.
