SunSetter Awnings Reviews

I contacted SunSetter via phone, and their representative was really friendly, presenting all necessary information and offering valuable recommendations. The installation team also did a splendid job, removing the old awning and using the same placements for the new one, making sure everything fit perfectly.

Although I haven't had the chance to use the awning fully yet due to the variable weather, I know it's working fine since the team rolled it out during installation. It's a motorized model, which should be very convenient.

Overall, my experience with SunSetter was more about making a suitable choice rather than just personal preference. If a friend or family member asked, I'd share that it was a pretty good experience, though I wished I would have chosen a slightly smaller awning, as the 14-foot model barely fit the space where I placed it.

Though the products are resourceful, I did think SunSetter's offerings were a bit pricey. While I didn't actively question why at the time, since we were aware of prices, it stood out to me. As for their website, it was fairly user-friendly, though adding products or upgrading features involves a bit of a learning curve due to multiple options for each product.

In summary, my experience with SunSetter Awnings has been positive overall despite some premium pricing and initial decisions I might reconsider in hindsight.

The installation process was incredibly smooth and efficient. The team of two guys completed everything in less than three hours and took the time to demonstrate the features, such as opening and closing the awning, doing the lights and using the wind gauge. I couldn't have asked for an easier experience.

I'm thoroughly impressed with the functionality and performance of my SunSetter awning, and I would rate it a perfect 10. It is a quality product. The installation team knows it, supports it, stands by it, and I would 100% recommend it. Since installing it, I've received positive feedback from others in my community, mostly through reviews on Facebook.

I use the awning extensively during various outdoor activities, like grilling in the evenings or sitting outside when it's full sun or even when it's raining. I normally would not sit outside in the rain, but I did. Overall, the SunSetter awning has been a fantastic addition to my outdoor space.

The installation was very impressive. The crew that was sent was diligent. They were one of the best teams I've seen in doing a job like that. But the interior was a different crew for the SunSetter. I got a call from one of the owners of it and told them how impressed we were with the people that they sent for both the interior and the exterior jobs that we had contracted with them. It went very smoothly.

We had high winds here in Camarillo, most of Southern California last week. When they came, it was not too windy. The intention was to work for the entire day and to have it completed in that one day. By the early part of the afternoon, it was too windy. They had them on the wall of the house, but they did not want to extend the arms to do any of the adjustments and leveling, because the winds were too high. They had to come back a week later and a little smaller crew. They installed the light option that we ordered and wind sensors, and leveled it. It was a day and a half when they put it. We were impressed with the people that put it in.

One of the things we like about retractable awnings is much of the week, we're not gonna extend them. Summertime, probably more often because we will have more functions out on our patio. But I like the idea because we have a nice view at the back. That means when we're inside the house, we can retract those awnings and get the full effect of the view. It's a good product. It's what we were looking for.

There was a question of location in terms of whether the awning was centered on the window or the side, and we told the installers what we were trying to do. But we haven't had a chance to test the awning in the time when we are most likely to be using it and it may well be that it's fine where it is. But the one day we used it, we were putting it up to help block the sun in the morning because it was low and coming in the north, but it didn't block it because the shade was a little too far in one direction. I would have hoped that it would have been more all-season, that it would have worked in the winter when you wanted to shade out the lights. If we wanted it to be more of the sunblock in the kitchen, it probably should have been lined up about a foot further to the right.

We had a little problem with the remote activating the one time we used it, but it may have been that we weren't giving it enough time to respond. Overall, the product seems to be fine but we didn’t get strong enough support at the time of installation to get it in the right place. The price was good though. I might have expected it to be more expensive than it was.

The awning is about 18 feet and it has lights. It was the better awning and had a nice cover on it. It happened to reach out the depth of the patio that it’s covering. So, it fit just right as far as the coverage went. I hadn't used it much since I've had it 'cause we're still waiting on everything to be finished. It would have been done by now, but they had to reorder the cover, and I'm still waiting on that.

There are two sides to my experience. There's the ordering side and then there's the installation side. There was nothing wrong with the installation. That guy was right on the ball. He can put an awning up blindfolded. He was very smart, did a great job and didn't mess around. He didn't stand around and just shoot the bow and then waste my time. He got that awning put up quickly. On the other hand, the ordering side didn't work out as quite as good, but I would need to have more orders than just one to qualify them and get a trend. That was just a one-time thing. If I was to order that stuff again, it would probably not be a problem. I told one of my neighbors about SunSetter and they're talking to them now about putting an awning up for themselves.

We evaluated several options before deciding on SunSetter due to its ability to extend across the entire deck, which was a significant selling point for us. Our experience with the SunSetter team was positive; they were professional from start to finish. We opted for a motorized model, allowing it to extend 12 feet, which offers great shade when the sun is setting. The feature that allows us to simply press a button to open or close the awning is incredibly convenient.

The installation was handled by a team of professionals who did an excellent job—smooth, swift, and without hiccups. Although the price seemed a bit steep, the full deck coverage made it worthwhile. I'd recommend SunSetter.

The installation was straightforward and efficient. Everything about the model choices, and the actual execution was in line with what I expected.

However, I felt the overall price was higher than anticipated. A suggestion from my wife was that offering zero financing could make purchases easier, given the substantial cost involved. When it comes to the quality, I'm quite satisfied with the awning; it meets all my expectations. The customer service throughout has been commendable, resolving issues promptly.

Overall, I have a positive view of SunSetter Awnings and would recommend their services based on this experience.

I opted for a 12-by-18-foot green-striped retractable awning with a motor, which was an enticing feature for ease of use. It provided excellent shade, making our patio enjoyable.

Installation was efficient, taking only about an hour. The team was professional and made sure I knew how to operate it safely. I've found the overall service to be commendable.

In terms of cost, I find the awning somewhat pricey, rating that aspect a 4 out of 5. However, the quality and reliability offered make it a worthwhile investment.

I definitely rate SunSetter Awnings 5 stars.

The installation team did a commendable job. The awning is electric, controlled via remote, and can be partially or fully extended, which I find very convenient.

I would definitely recommend both the SunSetter product and the team at Weather Guard, especially the clear and effective guidance from Liam. While I’ve only had it for a month and a half, I’m confident it will be satisfactory throughout the varying seasons. I've only tested it so far by extending the awning, and it works perfectly.

I'd give the installation and quality a high mark. Given my brief experience, the overall quality deserves a high rating too. In terms of costs, I'd rate it lower.

While I found the customer service team to be excellent, ensuring that everything was set up perfectly, the price was a bit on the higher side for my budget as a senior citizen. However, I assessed my needs and decided it was a worthwhile investment, aided by some savings. Overall, my experience with SunSetter Awnings has been very positive.
