Poled Awnings
Although Inflatable Awnings are very popular there are some benefits to sticking with a traditional poled awning.
For one, if the ground is uneven you can adjust the poles to accommodate it. They will be less bulky and there's less weight and funnily enough, sometimes they are just as easy to put up. They will take longer when packing away however the separate bags for poles, canvas etc will make your job a lot quicker an easier.
Another benefit too is that if you want to extend the size of your awning at a later date, some models allow for this, whereas it's more difficult with inflatable. And of course the main thing is that if you break a pole, you can easily get another one!
