Terrible experience with Aleko. Purchased my awning in June. While instructions weren't very clear, I managed. Within two weeks I noticed one side faded really bad. I took pictures and sent in to Aleko (first I tried calling three times and disconnected three times after long wait each time). It has been two weeks now and they replied twice in that time giving me a complete runatound. At no point have they honored their product warranty. They seem to just put you off. I wish I never bought it!!!!!
