VINGLI Window Awning Door Canopy, 40" x 40" Window Awning Overhead Modern Polycarbonate Cover Outdoor Front Porch Patio Canopy UV Rain Snow Sunlight Protection Hollow Sheet/Brown

I use this on my grill gazebo. It is excellent for that purpose. The quality is good. It is not that difficult to install. It is more sturdy than I expected. This awning is an excellent value.

We love this addition to our house! It's makes our front porch look so beautiful! It's beautiful in appearance! Sun protection, durable, easy to assemble and the quality is great!

Update** Seller is working with me to rectify the issue. Brackets are made with plastic, a little snow and down she went, wall brackets broke.

overall it looks like good quality. One drawback is that the roof panels come in four pieces instead of two, which makes installation a little less convenient. Also, don’t let the strong sun beat directly on it for too long—I live in Florida, and the intense sun can cause holes to form within just a few months. I would suggest painting it with a good exterior latex paint to help protect it and make it last longer. Other than that, it’s a good product.

First: the product. Exactly as described and pictured. Super easy to assemble. The panels seem kinda flimsy at first, but after everything is assembled it’s sturdy. Second: installation. A nightmare. Truly awful. I can’t honestly blame the nightmare installation on the product. I’m assuming any other awning would be this bad. Some advice: don’t count on the installation hardware that comes with the awning. It was complicated and didn’t come with any instructions. I had to look it up on YouTube. The other problem is the awning’s arches. The little decorations inside the support arches which I’m assuming are structurally important make it hard to attach the awning to the wall. A drill, hammer, screwdriver…none of it will fit. The top hole is covered by one of those decorations on the arch, so only a tool with small clearance will work. For example, you can use a simple hand wrench because it turns flat, parallel to the wall. But you can’t use a screwdriver because the handle comes away from the hole and turns perpendicular to the wall. So before you start with this project I highly recommend you make a plan about what hardware to use to attach it to your building. Keep in mind that you will not have any tools clearance for those top holes. Good luck! On the plus side, I put this awning through a ton of abuse trying to get it up and it is definitely more sturdy than it looks. I even had to skip one of the holes, so the whole thing sags. But we’ve had some big storms and it doesn’t budge even with the uneven way it hangs. The panels are a bit hollow so it makes some noise when it rains. If that is a concern for you then be aware. It is louder than the sound rain makes on my car roof when I’m inside the car but not tin roof loud. I’d say it’s more like rain on a plastic umbrella.

Perfect for my window

I had a mini-split installed a few months ago. Our installed said it was fine to leave uncovered, but I was concerned about the pipes coming out of the back of the unit. It did tell us that some people build little "dog houses" over them (which was not really possible because of our window). Thought a window awning would protect that end of the unit. This was one of the least expensive, of the size that I needed. Would look a bit strange, but hope to plant some bushes in front of this unit, so really looking for practical. I am a pretty handy guy, built a house about 20 years ago. Not an expert, but usually can build or fix things around the house. This it lightweight, it is all plastic, except for an aluminum top and bottom rail. Assembly was confusing. All parts have letters assigned in the instructions, so say things like "Connect the accessory E into the accessory B become J" and then, of course, next you connect I to the J to become K. There are pictures, but hard to tell if this piece slides in this slot or not. Once it is all together, then you have to add screws. My advice at that point it to get a drill, and use that to start the short screws (this will make sense of you buy this product, self tapping screws into a round piece of aluminum. Once outside they come with "screwset" to install to the house. These did not work for me. I think they are supposed to expand, like an anchor. They didn't, they just expanded enough to prevent me from removing them, but didn't hold the canopy tight. Finally, admitting defeat, I used a piece of wood to hold it against the house (old piece of hardwood flooring, with long desk screws). It works, and will protect that end of my heat pump. Time to build and install was about 4 hours (did break for lunch, and a walk while my drill battery charged). Took three people, my wife holding it together as I drilled and screwed it all together, and then my son holding one side as I tried to attach to the outside wall of my house. So why 3 stars? I don't know if there are any easier to assembly and install products available. It is installed on my house, it is strong enough that it should work. I think if I had been able to replace the "screwsets" with some regular anchors or carriage bolts, it would have pulled in tighter to the house. So not a bad product, just not clear, easy to follow instructions, and horrible installation screws.

The awning works well and is made much better than I expected. Assembly was not too difficult as the instructions were well written. Installed easily. Delivery however was problematic. Seller uses YunExpress who does not provide timely and clear updates. It was not delivered in the time frame expected. Seller responded quickly to my concerns but had no more information than on YunExpress website. It eventually arrived with no notification. Will make sure that Amazon orders are delivered by Amazon in the future.

Ni siquiera necesité instrucciones, son bonitos y con piezas de calidad excepto el policarbonato, pues de los tres que compré e instalé, uno se rompió parcialmente al día siguiente, se rajó... Tendré que comprar un paño nuevo y remplazar

Installé entre abri d'auto et gazébo pour protéger d'une pluie légère. Évite la pluie sur le BBQ pendant la cuisson!

Put this up over the heat pump to keep the snow off and it works. I struggled to find something that isn't too wide, this is a little wider than the heat pump and does the job perfectly.

very satisfied looks great.

The item was returned as husband the material would not hold the weight of snow.
