This Retractable Patio Awning took a bit to install however the instruction were quite easy to follow. It looks nice and does the job we wanted it for. The 'crank' works well and the canvas retracts without a problem. Correct installation and adjustment is key to that. I only gave it a 4 star rating as I expect the canvas not to last more than a couple of years. Having said that, it's great that replacement canvases are readily available by this manufacturer at a decent price so making the awning affordable for the longer haul. I also like that there are a wide choice of colors and sizes that will go with any decor and that you can give your place a new look when the time comes to replace the canvas.
