I like the island except for one major issue for us. The slide opens under the awning and we do not want to give up one inch of awning space. We spend most of our time outside and our picnic table and two chairs and a side table fit perfectly. If we had a slide our space would be limited and our things could get wet or we could be in more sun than we want.
While I have only 4 days under my belt with this one, when I could use it I did not find the loss of space too egregious.
It's because of the awning, not the slide, that I now have to figure out something else when it comes to keeping my camp chairs dry.
That is too bad. We love our electric awning, leave it open most all the time. The auto dump feature is great. I think I have closed it once in 3 years because of wind.
