When I was looking to buy my first canopy, I was really confused with how I'd had such a wide range of quotes from canopy importers and canopy builders.
It wasn't until I actually owned a canopy on the cheaper end, that I began to appreciate all those annoying people that say 'you get what you pay for'.
As anyone that's been watching my channel for a while knows, my old canopy was absolutely shagged after a couple of years of touring. Pretty much every corner was cracked, handles had snapped off and the thing was always full of dust and water.
I'm in a unique position to have actually had canopies at both ends of the market, and I was able to run a camera over them both while they were in the workshop, to highlight the differences in construction and quality (with some really valuable input from ThunderFab fabricator/co-owner Steve).
My Canopy (including toolboxes, guards, water tank, drawers, fridge surround ect...) was built my ThunderFab (Perth). Their prices/weights/sizes are all on their website;
