My wife and I live in the blissful heat and sun of the Palm Springs, California Coachella valley. We've been shopping for an awning to shade our front window. After much research, we decided on the ALEKO. Our window is 8 feet wide, but I chose the 13 footer to provide maximum shade. I was a bit apprehensive about some of the reviews focused on how difficult is was to put together - but, I'm both brave and a DIY'er and couldn't resist the price. It was also the only one in grey to match our house.I'll start with the end in mind. This awning is absolutely high quality, and it was NOT difficult to put together. The holes lined up perfectly, there was extra hardware included and it works like a charm.Here are a few helpful tips and hints:*No idea why people complain about the instructions? The instructions actually 'over explain' most of the steps and despite some tiny illustrations, it's pretty simple to figure out.*The ONLY step in the instructions that were a tiny bit unclear are towards the end where you have to attach the front metal strip (that connects the awning to the front scalloped piece) to the arms that retract - the funky pieces that slide into the channel on the front piece isn't crystal clear - although if you take a moment, you'll figure it out.*When you mount the brackets to your eve/wall (whatever you are attaching the awning to) - ensure you are attaching them very firmly, and ensure they are 'dead' level and in line. I used a $20 laser level and it worked like a charm.*Fully assembled, this thing is heavy - if you have 2 strong people, you'll be a-ok.*My wife and I chose to attach it ourselves, and I removed the fabric and roller so we could lift just the main frame on to the brackets. Once the frame was attached to our eve, it was simple to lift the roller and complete the job.*You'll need a large/clean area to put this together.*Study the instructions before you start.*We chose not to use the scalloped front piece - just didn't go well with our mid-century mod home.All in all, the entire project - from unboxing to completion - took about 4.5 hours.Don't be scared - you can do this!We'd purchase again, and recommend it.

We are so pleased with this awning. Found out it is waterproof too. Perfect to have because we meet people outside because of covid. The installation was relatively easy. We had to put up 2 by 4’s to attach it to as the studs were not able to be used. The crank for putting up and down is very easy.Love love love it.

When you get one of these (and you'l have a hard time beating the price), get awning assist braces too, as the wind can take charge if you don't, resulting in the awning drooping due to the strain on the backbone/arm couplings.

I bought this Aleko awning a few months ago. I have never bought a bigger piece of garbage in my life. Right from the start I knew I was in trouble. The instructions are written in poor English and are vague at best. No specifics on how to do anything. Luckily I do have some mechanical abilities and was able to get the awning installed. First of all, the awning does not extend to a 12x10 coverage area. 10' 6" wide and only extends about 8 feet out. The drop angle is very severe. The instructions state 30 centimeters, which is about a foot, but in reality it was over 3 feet. After days of messing with it, I finally got it to where I could at least walk under it.After a week of being installed, I was closing it and the retracting arm became bound and snapped. I called customer service and that was pretty much a waste of time. I ordered a new retracting arm, the exact one that was in the instruction manual and the one customer service said to order. $75 plus $40 shipping later the replacement arm arrived. Each piece of the arm was 11" too short, so now the awning would only open to a maximum of 6 feet. Once again, customer service was completely ineffective.Words of advice. DO NOT buy this or anything else from Aleko. The product is garbage, the replacement parts are garbage and customer service is garbage. You get what you pay for and I found out the hard way. It is now sitting in my garage waiting for the trash collector to come pick it up. I can't believe Amazon even allows this vendor to do business with them. If I could give this product a zero I would have.

The item arrived very quickly and in good order. I'm in the process of installing it on a stucco wall to give shade to the A/C unit. If you are not a careful reader you may have some problems with the printed instructions. The information is there it is just obscured by the language. I went to the vendors website to check things out. While there I noticed they have a motorized drive and a sun/wind detector for a very reasonable price. I ordered one of each. They arrived very quickly but, unfortunately, did not include the instructions for the motor install so I called them. A very nice fellow, whose name I did not get, emailed the instructions to me within the hour. Excellent service. Wish I could say the same about the content of the email. The instructions are not at all clear and I am still trying to decipher them. I'll figure it out. The products themselves are of good quality and the price is very good.
