Slide out toppers
I want to get toppers for my slide outs. What do you recommend?

We have had them over our 3 sets of windows on our Carriage since 1996. We started with Carefree which worked wonderfully well. When we did our Carriage in 2010 we had them changed to match our new color scheme. My error was not ensuring that I got the same heavy fabric. I found out when the wind blew that they were flimsey and did flap in the wind & didn't hold up well. Several years ago, we couldn't stand it anymore and had new awnings in a better color to match our paint scheme and made sure they were good quality sturdy material. That material eliminated much or the wind noise/flapping.
Our reasons why we installed and still have toppers. They keep the uninsulated top of the slides cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. They keep debris off the slides and keep them cleaner so we don't have to clean them. This is what works for us. Hugs, Di
