Sunshade for a Triton

Apologies if this has been dealt with before. I am trying to decide on whether to choose a Fiamma Caravanstore or an Omnistore 1200. The latter is more expensive but is it better?

Our Triton is a 2015 although I assume that the awning rail is the same length as previous models although the rail is a little higher. Which can be fitted a Caravanstore 280 or 310? In the Omnistore the choice seems to be 2.60 or 3.00 metre?

Any advice very welcome!

Can you check out and compare the leg fitting on the Omnistore?
I seem to recall that the legs clip into the front tube and that the height adjustment is by means of a butterfly type screw.
The Fiama legs slide neatly into the front roll/tube and the height adjustment is by means of a clamp.
For what it's worth and it's only an opinion but I think you will see many Fiamma caravanstores around on caravans and Motorhomes but very few of the Omnistore version.

Remember that for the Fiamma the actual bag is longer than the first number given:

Description
Awning length (in bag) A Canopy fabric width B Extension C Shade surface Weight

Caravanstore 280 288 cm 254 cm 225 cm 5.7 m 2 9 kg
Caravanstore 310 318 cm 284 cm 225 cm 6.4 m 2 10.2 kg

We had a 280 on our Triton and now have a 310 on our Troll.

Do a search and look at various sites selling Fiamma stuff, e.g. Fiammatore, Fiamma Depot, Agent Fiamma etc. prices and delivery costs vary.
