Hi all , has any bought one of this and if so hows the quality. Asked for pictures of the anti flap but they only have the pictures on the web which is worrisome.
They are obviously a reseller of Asian products - As the item for sale is only the walls to wrap around an existing awning poles there is not much that could go wrong other than dimensions. There is no indication of how it is attached to caravan walls, or how it attaches to awning top bar. There is no way the unit pictured could control awning flap.
I could not click on view to enlarge.

Yes, they make it hard to part with my hard earned money.

Not sure of the product mentioned, but "if" it is from Pinnacle Wholesalers out of Ballarat maybe that is a positive. You at least have some come back as they are in Australia. So many people buy from suppliers over seas and then you really have NO come back at all.
Just do your home work, good place to start here or other forums.
good luck

There is a wide range of quality in 'privacy' screens. They vary in their effectiveness in keeping out the sun, in appearance & of course price. I'd be careful with on line stuff.
I picked up a set of (cheap) Aldi ends to go with my Coast to Coast side screen.
The Aldi ones looked inferior especially when compared to the ones on the adjacent van, which seemed to have custom made privacy screens fitted. SWMBO was vocal in her comments & wanted me to take them down.
They were permanently wrinkled, too small and looped down at the tie down points. Perhaps I need practice in setting them up.
The fabric seemed coarse when compared to the C to C product.
I used them for one trip & then went back to C to C for a pair of ends from their range.
The Aldi ones went into the shed along with a couple of their floor mats that I never use.
I was very surprised and disappointed as I have purchased lots of stuff from Aldi & am usually very pleased with their stuff.
ps. I have re-purposed the side screens as a shade for the fridge side of the van. Cut to size & sewed together to get the right length ... rope in the top to go into the sail track. They are (just) OK for that job, but I might get another C to C side screen for that job too.
