Sounds a lot like our luck. First one was wrong size and color, second one looked like it had been thru WW3, third one came and while the packaging was beat up the awning and parts were okay. The installation was straightforward but it did require 3 people, it was a 16 footer. Yes occasionally the wind will cause some flapping.....if the wind is coming from the perfect direction, the benefits outweigh the negatives. Here in Florida sometimes it would rain hard enough to push water past the seals, it stopped that completely and it seems to keep it a bit cooler when the sun is beating down. We have 2 more slides to do, these will be easier since the track on the body side is already there from the factory and the last 2 are a little smaller. We just need to find a better way to get them here.
