Finally found the perfect shade awning !!!
After trying to others and returning them, this is the best. I've been looking for one for my tear drop nucamp. The quality is unbelievable. The shade poles for the roof are top quality, the ropes and tie downs top quality the suction cups are a nice added feature for extra security. The tie down spikes top quality. The zip on side flap is perfect. I just tested it in 16 mph winds and the driveway and set it up easily myself and I am over 50 and a woman. This is by far the best awning and the rest were garbage. The price is perfect. I chose not to get the package with the poles, as I wanted green elephant poles for other things as well so I purchased them. But most impressed with the quality, price, and functionality for my teardrop. Go get you one forget the others

Works Great
I bought the Geertop Awning to create a usable work/cooking space in the back of my 2002 GMC Yukon. I'm not an experienced camper but a touring musician who was looking for overnighting alternatives to hotel rooms. I totally disagree with some of the negative reviews I've read about it, and I feel that for the price it's a great awning that did exactly what I wanted it to do. My only complaint is that it doesn't come with very good instructions, so it took a minute to figure out how to set it up the first time. But after the first time I was easily able to set it up and put it in place by myself (Although on a windy day this did prove challenging!) Also, people have commented that it doesn't come with tent poles, so I bought a pole kit only to find that it does in fact come with poles. I did, however, use the extra set of tent poles to prop up the zipper on side piece to create additional "under roof" space. It rained the first time I used it and it did exactly what I wanted it to do which was to keep me and all my cooking gear dry and out of the weather. I've used it now several times and I really like it. I don't think the negative reviews make a lot of sense unless previous versions weren't as good. (Got mine September of 2023)

Eh, it’s ok
This set-up is ok. The suction cups are one time use- they come very very sticky and are fantastic the first time. But after that, they continually fall off because the sticky is used. The actual suction cup does not work (even washes it with gentle soap and water to make it reapply). The straps from the suction cup to the fender clip are also too long, so the fender clip kept fall off. I had to use rope and stakes to make my tent stay. Once set up, it did work as advertised. I had a nice homey space, the pockets were nice to have. A complaint I do have is the poles do not have a way to secure into the ground so that ended up flimsy too. I really relied on rope and steaks to keep this in place. I would not have faith in the tent if it was windy.Also to note, the poles do not come in the original bag (they’re separate), and good luck packing the tent back into the original bag once you’ve attached the fender clips, suction cups, and ropes. It’s a hassle to carry tent, steaks, and poles because they don’t all fit in one bag- makes it easy to forget something.I would not buy again

Failed to provide any shade
Complete waste of money. Set it up in full sun at my camping site and sun went right through it. Unfortunately it was past the return date. Also one person set up is nearly impossible without someone holding one of the non-included poles while staking it down and holding the second pole. Horrible product.

Great generic SUV canopy
This is a very impressive kit. All the parts required were present and strong enough for the task. (It is a lightweight canopy, so I wouldn't expect it to be suitable for high winds.) The attachment pockets and grommets for the poles are strong. There are some really nice details that really make a difference. There are zippered pockets in the corners of the canopy for storing the suction cups and related straps when not in use. The suction cups come with covers to protect the working surface when not in use. I used the canopy over the weekend and it worked perfectly.

Wider than rear of 4runner
I bought this as an additional awning for the rear of my 4runner. It's a bit wide and running straps to my wheels didn't work too well but I will keep figuring out best method for my rig. Was quick to set up for a single person.

Perfect but buy GOOD poles.
We used this car canopy in the mountains of Colorado a few days after we received it. Hubby and I (age 70+) had it assembled in good time (side mount) and attached it to the roof rack of our suburban. It cleared the doors easily so all were accessible. Disassembly was simple. It was easy to put up (even without good directions...hint hint Geertop) but we did watch some individual videos prior. It worked like a champ and provided needed shade and shelter. I didn't think I would use the little pockets but I did and I love them. I can't speak to waterproofing because no rain. We purchased Green Elephant Telescoping Tarp Poles and they made all the difference in holding the canopy steady and sturdy in gusty moderate wind. Do yourself a favor and buy good poles. So far we're really happy with this purchase.

Great product
I installed this on the rear of my RAV4 that has a rear door that opens sideways. It is the only product I found that would work for this car. I already had the 2 poles and they worked perfectly to support the awning. It was easy enough to install by myself and fit onto the rear rack under my kayak. This will work really well for camping and cooking out of the back of my car when I can't work outside because of rain. The extra side panel will basically give me coverage on all the sides when the back of the car is open. It folded easily and fit nicely (although a bit tight) into the included storage bag.
