      For club members it is

      LOL yeah, has anyone actually bought this at $239.99?
      Seems like similar quality to Kings, but at this discounted price $59.99, it is a better deal.

    Without guy ropes, what stops them causing havoc in a breeze?

      2.5/5 star reviews based on 380 people suggests that havoc is a common situation

      • underscore on 23/10/2020 - 10:53

        Worth noting that for Anaconda reviews tend to be lower than most other sites for a given item. Don't know why, but I've noticed that it's uncommon for any item with a lot of reviews to have more than 3.5 stars on the Anaconda site, even if the same item has close to 5 stars on another site.

        E.g. the Dometic 33L Ice Box that was on sale recently:
        https://www.anacondastores.com/camping-hiking/power-cooling/…

        Reviews across a few sites are:
        3.3/5 at Anaconda
        4.6/5 at BCF
        Nearly 5/5 at Snowys
        5/5 at Tentworld

          Maybe they're not deleting bad reviews like a lot of retailers do

            @nigel deborah: Yes I've left negative reviews for items at different stores. Often the negative review will show up when you verify it from within your account,
            but when you sign out from your account and check again the negative review is nowhere to be seen!
            Maybe Anaconda is one of the more honest stores about its reviews.

            • nigel deborah on 23/10/2020 - 12:14

              @PukeyLuke: I don't really understand it to be honest. A lot of these stores sell basically the same stuff, if I can trust the reviews on an online store I'm much more likely to buy from them. Sure, the store might lose some money stocking stuff that flops due to bad reviews, but at least you'll have a reputation as a trusted retailer. Same principle as sales assistance who tell the truth about products rather than just trying to mindlessly flog them.

              @PukeyLuke: Explains why Kmart has spectacular reviews of their budget mattresses, while independent reviews are the opposite!

          Are you definitely not in charge of it?

      • Cunning Linguist on 23/10/2020 - 12:14

        I don't pay much attention to Anaconda review ratings as all their items are 2 - 3 stars, even known excellent items that are universally 4-5 stars everywhere else.

        I think it's a flaw in their set up.

    • PepePepeson on 23/10/2020 - 09:55

      A store like tent world has an excellent selection of items suitable to upgrade the ability of your awning to reduce havoc in certain situations. Pegs, ropes, poles, clips, etc.

    • Benjamin7711 on 23/10/2020 - 09:55
      +1

      I guess you could peg the legs down - should handle a breeze, but maybe not wind

      • dutch on 23/10/2020 - 14:04

        I don't think these legs have the holes built into the feet - some do but wouldn't think so at this price point.

        • Benjamin7711 on 23/10/2020 - 14:28

          After closer inspection of the photos, I'd say you're right!

          There are so many drill specials im sure most ozbargainers have an ozito laying around unused that will resolve this issue.

    • lost in transit on 23/10/2020 - 10:23

      They generally come with guy ropes and should be used at all times , The slightest breeze will lift them up.

      I have a Darche Awning with the rubber knuckles at the aluminium extrusion instead of metal ones.
      2 years ago i was down at Wonthaggi near the beach,a gust came up and pulled the ropes out causing the awning to go nearly 90 degrees to the roof, no damage the rubber knuckles did there job but not something you’d want to do regularly…

      So you pay a bit more for quality i guess.

      I’ve had the Kings one also.

    • team teri on 23/10/2020 - 11:19

      Of course you need them, and I'm sure they will be supplied. They just aren't very photogenic and suggest some (minimal) extra effort setting up, hence they left them out in the studio photos.

    • dutch on 23/10/2020 - 14:07
      +1

      I use them every time, having been burnt once with an awning get messed up in a sudden gust.

      Keep them in the car along with a cut down rubber mallet.

      Get some carabiners too and double figure-8 knot them onto the guy lines to make life easy attaching them to the attached loops.

  • AndyRoo on 23/10/2020 - 09:18

    If so I'll be buying 1 or 2. My old Kings one has had it.

    • team teri on 23/10/2020 - 11:20

      How long did you get out of that Kings?

      • AndyRoo on 23/10/2020 - 23:48

        So far? 5 years or so…. Awning is their first one and still great. The bag is stuffed though and the zip is dead so unfortunately I need to replace the whole awning.

  • mange on 23/10/2020 - 09:56

    Could you fit that onto a 3x3 garden shed?

    • itsHughesy on 23/10/2020 - 09:59

      I can't see why not?

      • Ridiculous Panda on 23/10/2020 - 23:40

  • sasangeleus on 23/10/2020 - 10:23

    Would this be better than a kings one? Which has these basic specs 'Uses quality components like anodised anti-scratch alloy poles, alloy knuckles and 170gsm ripstop polyester for long life. Packs away in a heavy duty nylon-reinforced 1000D PVC bag'

      Mines that size and obviously quite popular including the 3 metre…
      This size wouldn’t be as popular hence the sale maybe????

    Does anyone know what bracket you need to buy?

    • team teri on 23/10/2020 - 11:22

      Is that how they make their money? That stuff was included with King's.

      • fatty on 23/10/2020 - 11:46

        Kings premium yes included but not Kings standard.

    • garffi on 23/10/2020 - 12:02

        says "Additional fittings required to fit awning to roof racks"

        • garffi on 23/10/2020 - 12:47

          Yes you need fittings to attach the awning onto your roof racks. But the bracket attached to the awning is included. I have one.

    • dutch on 23/10/2020 - 14:10

      You'd need some t-bolts to drop into your platform or racks for their L bracket to bolt to.

    Not trolling, but what do people use these for? Have been camping for 30 years with a 4WD and can't think of 1 reason why I'd use one. Maybe sleep under in a swag overnight?

      Very easy to diy

    • edfoo on 23/10/2020 - 18:48

      Make sure your car has a pair of roof racks on top first. Fitting the awning on the roof racks is easy job.

  • dkstorm on 24/10/2020 - 00:02

    I have a Subaru Forester 2016 that doesn't have a roof rack, it just has the standard roof rails running from front to back.
    I don't have any intention of getting a roof rack.
    Are the brackets that come with the unit sufficient for attaching to the rails?
    Most of what I've seen appears to indicate it costs $300+ for a roof rack just to attach the awning to?

    • AndyRoo on 24/10/2020 - 00:05

      The awning will have adjustable rails where you can adjust the spacing of the brackets. You will just need to drill some holes in the side of your bars or make your own bracket to attach them. I had mine on bars before I got a roof rack years back.

      • dkstorm on 24/10/2020 - 00:11
