I am debating the merits of a pull out awning for a 2015 Triton. I am attracted by the bag system to allow maximum flexibility of use. There appear to be two main competitors, the Caravanstore made by Fiamma or the Omnistore 1200. My one outstanding concern is whether the awning will allow the door to open freely. Do users of these two awnings have any comments?

wind is the main issue, to be honest,
the caravan store is a quick deploy once on the awning rail, and is easily with 2 people put away, can be done by one person, takes slightly longer
the door is sorted by the height of the front legs and clothes pegs to hold bag out of way and the bag is held up with either a teaspoon or bent pegs, placed through brackets
the door can be removed if irritating
the main plus is the legs are stored in the tube that the canopy unwinds from, and is easy to adjust,

our main issue was rain collecting in the bag when rolled away because the zip faced upwards with the peg holding above door, if forgot rained got wet.

There are previous posts on this. I currently have an Omnistor 2000 on my Eriba Triton 430 and have no issues or problems with it. It is however a permanent fixture on the caravan and is, I think, heavier than a CaravanStore which is also of course easy to remove. We previously had CaravanStores (on conventional caravans) and had no problems. However one CaravanStore did blow away on one occasion (see my earlier post) but as all these awnings are a bit on the flimsy side, this could happen to any one of them given severe-enough conditions. Sorry I cannot comment on the possibility of door obstruction by the CaravanStore, but the system goes through the awning rail and the bag hangs down, so careful check needed(but you know that already!). Best of luck

On thing we found on the Puck L was easily remedied by a gift from another Folk on here. When the C/store is on but not unfurled and you still want to get in the van, there is a cute little gadget which keeps it up and out of the way of the door.

just put some pictures in gallery
currently under title 'the caravan store' mods may move them, if they disappear

Thanks for all your observations so far.

The Fiamma caravanstore has better legs in my opinion!
