The Moon Shade awning is the best and most versatile portable awning you can buy. I have been using mine for years and love how easy it is to set up and the number of different ways I can use it.

We have used the ru-vid.comUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

@dirtdauberadventures Год назад

Well Dang! That's a faster setup on the MOON shade than I expected.

@cramias1 Год назад

What's nice about it is the lifted ceiling, most awnings are fixed to the height where they're mounted, this is a good solution if you're in a lower height vehicle like a crossover. The price is a hard stopping point for me, but I love the design

@darksideemt Год назад

Totally agree with you about the price and that's why I haven't bought one either.

@joseph_quiles Год назад

I saw your video you did a few months back and I was amazed and when I seen it I knew I had to get it as I had been struggling to find a kick ass awning that can go with us wherever we go. My set up is hard to permanently mount a stationary awning like the one you showed in the beginning of this video. We just came back from a camping trip in Oregon and my aunt was blown away at how fast we set it up. Best investment ever. Thank you!

@BirdDogOffRoadAdventures Год назад

Saw this awning on one of your earlier videos and bought it shortly after. It works great with the soft top Broncos!

@electricstartclint Год назад

I bought one because of your last video. Love it. Use it all the time, not just overlanding. I didn’t like the mounting suction cups. I use rubber covered twist ties. Attaches to my roofrack way easier and more sturdy.

Love mine. I got it because of one of your videos where you presented it. Now I’m going to check the accessories you shared. Thanks for the video.

@selfsameday7448 11 месяцев назад

@RLPICKAXE Год назад

I have the Moonshade and am not 100% sold on it yet. It is definitely easy to set up and very well made however I feel like the 2 poles are too flimsey unless you anchor them down. I have resulted in carrying sand bags with me in order set this awning up securely. Suction mounts are pretty much worthless IMO. I have the mag mounts and they also arent very strong. However I do live in CO and it can get pretty windy. My solution is similar to the set up on your Jeep with the eyelets permanently mounted to my roof rack on all 3 sides. One thing I wish Moonshade would do is add 3 more poles to go around the awning to make it more ridgid but thats just me. Overall I do like it and it definitely serves its purpose for the price and ease of use.

@barbshubert9667 5 месяцев назад

@JamesReedy 27 дней назад

Wow this it tempting. I have a mid height rack and have been pondering the ARB 4 foot wide awning. It would be a permanent fixture on the truck and not sure it can go upwards like that does to give head clearance on a shorter rack. There is something to be said for it being affixed to the truck, but the ARB also requires two end poles and guy lines 🤔

@AmericanMuscleTruck Год назад

I wheel out of an F150 and use the bed like a kitchen like your setup. I have fiberglass bedsides and I want to use the suction cups to stretch the 7' side and cover the tailgate, so is the support bar a requirement? It doesn't look like you used the support bar when attaching the awning to your daughter's car. Thank you!

@heavyhitta52 5 месяцев назад

I'm looking at the Moonshade to replace my fixed awning on my teardrop. I need something that is user friendly day for someone setting up solo with strength issues in my hands. Price is reasonable if this fits my requirements. Fixed awning is too difficult for me.

@OzarkOverlandAdventures Год назад

I don't have a soft top.

@TruthInspector Год назад

@@OzarkOverlandAdventures what I realized was you said it could fit to any vehicle when you were doing that demonstration and I really like it I just think it's a little high in price. But I will tell you the kelty backwoods will close you in from rain and it looks very sturdy and you can put it on the front or back and it can adapt to almost any type of car so I just ordered that one but appreciate your input on that batwing because I really wanted one of those but I'd have to get a hardtop first
