I purchased three fabric window awnings from Taylor Made Awnings for the upper windows of my house. I was able to get the sizes I wanted (even though they only offer standard sizes), and the color choices were adequate. The instructions could be much improved. The metal hardware and steel rods seem durable. I hope nothing rusts. For the cost, I’m hoping they’re galvanized so if they do corrode, the corrosion takes longer to occur. Installation took longer and required two people on tall ladders. There are wrinkles in the fabric, which are supposed to come out over time, I’m still waiting and it’s been 9 months so I think I am stuck with the wrinkles. The head rod clamps are exposed to the weather; I’m hoping they don’t continue to fail or release in the strong winds we sometimes get.

I got an 18’x10’ motorized awning from Taylor Made Awnings. The installation was ok, took longer than planned. The instructions are wordy and need more diagrams. It covers my sidewalk bistro tables and blocks some of the sun into may café. Operates with a wall switch, we misplaced the small remote in the first week. The motor is a bit slow and noisy but does appear to do the job. I also got the wind sensor so I wouldn’t have to worry. It’s a bit touchy, so I took it off. The aluminum frame and mounting brackets seem light-weight; I’m hoping they survive daily use. The birds like to sit on the protective aluminum hood, which makes a mess.

I bought my 14’x10’ Taylor Made Awning at the start of the season. I wanted it up and ready before the heat came. The price was higher than others I’d looked at, but it had the color I wanted, add in the shipping, and I almost didn’t get it. The instructions were just OK, couldn’t get the video link to work though. I did watch several others which made it easier. The powder-coated aluminum is light-weight, and the install took the better part of a day. I went with the standard manual model so I wouldn’t need an outlet. The sand color fabric and valance makes the patio usable and keeps the sun out of the house. I’ll add more at the end of the season.

We moved into our home last fall and didn’t realize how much sun our back patio got until this spring. We either needed a retractable pergola or a retractable awning. My pocketbook said retractable awning. We ordered a manual 19’’ wide by 10’ long Taylor Made Awning. I’d read some reviews, and watched some installation posts. I’m glad I had some buddies over to assist with the install; I needed all the help I could get with the instructions. It’s presently working, but we’re careful to retract it when it’s not in use. I don’t trust it even in a gentle wind as the frame looks to be very thin and weak. I’ll post more at the end of the season if I remember.
