Customer Reviews for Awnings in a Box 8 ft. Designer Manually Retractable Awning (36.5 in. Projection) in Ebony

Pretty good just wish they could roll up better

Served our needs well. We wanted an awning to cover our front door and two side windows. The eight foot length was perfect.

No, they were very badly built. Had a pocket in the middle that held water. Straight edge on valance should be scalloped.

The product looks great installed. Minor issues were the need to get different screws for installing it on our stucco wall since the provided screws were too soft and did not screw into the wall.

Love, love, love! Used over a center Palladian circa 1980’s arched window to hide arch and it footed the bill! I’ve located matching material to add an additional 18” to the drop as it is a second story window and a bit of the arch is still visible due to height, but the quality and look of shade itself is very nice! Great price too!!

These are simple, good quality, and do the job. Very happy with the outcome. Husband installed. He's very handy and normally doesn't need too much to go on. However the instructions in the box were for the 6' (smaller) awning with less hardware. I docked a star because I had to listen to his grumbling. Seems like the mfr could have prevented that by adding a couple more key points in the instructions.

We love it it went up quick and keeps the sun out of the room

The instructions didn't make sense for the application but did not take to long to install. Only a few pieces. Material is holding up well thus far

Great product

It works great over our front door. Good quality for the price.

The directions a lil tough to follow the retractible feature. but gorgeous once it’s up

Simple design and easy to install.

It does the job but if you’re looking for a tight wrinkle free cover seek elsewhere. The fabric is basically stretched by gravity with no means of tensioning to keep the cover tight.

Awesome made it easy as I did not have to make so many calls or measurements compare to getting a custom made canopy all I needed was basically cover on this pre made package

For what you got I think it was a little high priced, but the least expensive awning offered. But besides that it does the job and it shades the windows on the West side of our house that gets the hot afternoon sun. We also bought the six foot model for the other window after this one. It has really made a difference, we love it and wished we had done this years ago!!

3 stars because there are NO instructions. Very difficult to put together. Otherwise, the cloth and color are nice. So if you are very handy, and can put things up w/out any instruction and you like the design/color, etc., then you will like this product. If not, then it is a 3 star product.

This awning certainly makes my home stand out in a neighborhood cookie cutter homes. Installation would have been straight forward save for the thick metal we hit behind the stucco. We ended up purchasing a cobalt drill bit which did the trick. Two people are definitely needed for install.

Nice awning. Pretty easy to install though I'd only give the instructions a 4/5. Now, time will tell how durable the fabric is, frankly it seems a little thin, but we'll see.

Excellent
