Apache 700 - Omnistor awning, anyone bought safari room ? Forums

tonka

Just wondering if anyone with an Apache 700 and recessed Omnistor awning has bought the "special" version sides. On the Omnistor web site it list a set of sides that are somehow adapted to suit the recessed awning.
Would be nice to get some feedback to see if they are any better than just buying a Fiamma safari room...
Any comments ????

A safari room for our Apache 700 is on our wanted list particularly as we are intending to go full-timing and would give us more option with the extra space.
Please check out whether a Fiamma room will fit your Omnistor awning before you commit to buying.
We saw a demo on putting up a safari room at the NEC in Feb and must say it put me off a bit as it looked a little complicated.

We have an Omnistor residence room (the one with the side curtain clamps)
It takes about 20 mins to put up, you do need a small pair of steps or similar to reach the top clamps
Once up it is very stable structure. Don't know if it will fit a recessed awning but it would be worth asking Omnistor.

Thanks for the feedback..

I have gathered some more info..
Apparently Omnistor do a version of sides especially for the Recess on the SE models..

After emailing Oministor I had a reply from a company called Cara Camp and they will be at Peterborough and Newbury with one on show.. Hope to get to one of the shows and have a look.
