In a past life had one. Adco, worked great but only used it once. They are very heavy, lived in the Keys and had stilt house and could throw it on top from the walk around. That is the only way I could get it on. Good luck.

You get what you pay for.
I have a Calmark and it has been great so far.
I sent them a video of us putting the cover on and they posted it. LOL We're internet stars!

I have used many covers to protect my RVs over the past 18 years. They cost too much money and do not last very long. In the wind, your RV will become chafed in spots. This our second home where we built one of these. If you have the space and money, I would recommend something like this. http://x.co/o4xz

All slides are open, except for the street side front living slide is out only 90%. This only slide would open if the unit was 17'W, but I had a tree and deck in the way. The dimensions are 16W X 16H X 48L. I went with 48'L because RV faces West so wanted RV recessed so sun would not hit front cap. There are 16 4' rebar rods (8 each side)through the bottom rail and 5 vertical posts have double posts with the second one anchored in 3' deep concrete. We hit rock on one so we added the 5th. There is a cutout for the door to open. Total cost: $4,800. There is no real brand name for the cover. It is a company in AR that does all kinds of metal carports and buildings. If you need their name, please PM me. Here photos showing more. The slide show also shows my satellite dish and Butch's bed saver. http://x.co/o8eO

I have one that will fit my Monty. Never used, doesn't stay in storage long enough to justify use. Free to a good home, just stop by Navarre Fl on your way to destination.
