I bought an Aleko 13x10 half-cassette awning in sand color from Wayfair last month to go over our back deck. I installed the product just as prescribed, which wasn't too bad. The instructions could have been better, but Youtube videos made up for the deficiencies. I love the idea behind the awning, but it is well less than sturdy and strong in design and manufacturing. The cassette portion is well-designed, but the arms leave a lot to be desired. They seem very weak for the load they are expected to bear. I am not overly pleased with the product quality. To add to my dismay, I purchased the support poles to offset some the strain due to the cantilever design. They are cheap as well. The first few days I had the poles, one of them retracted, leaving the awning all the way extended without extra support. It is just a matter of time before the awning breaks while fully extended. I would not buy this product again. I went with it because of its awesome price compared to other awnings. In the end, I guess you get what you pay for.
