The Eezi-Awn Lite Awning (previously named the Shade Awning) is a lightweight, easy-to-use rollup bag awning that provides more than 40 sq. ft. of protection from the elements. The awning can be setup in less than a minute thanks to the self-contained aluminum framework that easily rolls out and locks into position with a simple twist; reversing these steps makes for a takedown of equal time!
The Lite Awning features a waterproof 260-gram ripstop canvas panel, fully adjustable legs (compatible with stakes) to any terrain or height up to 92" (2300mm), and a UV-resistant PVC cover made from the same material used on pickup tonneau covers. Best of all, it's made in Eezi-Awn’s Johannesburg South Africa facility, the same facility as their famous Series 3 and XKLUSIV roof top tents. It's guaranteed quality that you can rely on!

- RBRobert B G.Verified BuyerRated 3 out of 5 stars5 days agoA bit Short in coverage
While the awning is very practical and one person can set it up and close it down I was a bit disturbed when using it that the 2m advertised is not fully implemented in my Ezi-Awn Lite. When set up the awning fabric does not measure a full 2m (which coverted is 78.74").
This results in the awning fabric not covering the brace poles that are swung out from the awning mount support. The awning I got only measured 1.822m (or 71.75") ! I feel the company must have been cutting fabric a bit short for cost savings. When it rains, my support poles do not have coverage. Also, the instructions mention having velcro tabs sewn into the awing cover and those are supposed to wrap around the support brace poles that are inserted into the outside fabric tie down that is then supported by the ground poles. The design is great but in my case the product has been cheapened by these mistakes.
EEEquipt Expedition Outfitters1 minute agoHi Robert, thank you for your feedback on the Eezi-Awn Lite awning. We strive to provide accurate product information, so I apologize if the advertised measurements weren't as clear as they could have been. Our website does reflect a 71" awning width which appears to be inline with your findings. The mounting plate on the backside of the awning is 79". Please know that cost-cutting measures are never the manufacturer's intention - maintaining high quality is a top priority. The velcro tabs were eliminated from the product a few years ago and the instructions must not have been updated. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts and help us enhance our products. We will follow up with a response to your email as well. Thanks,
