If you are a comfort enthusiast, you are likely to opt for an electric awning, which slides out at the touch of a button in a matter of seconds. Three awnings in the Dometic range off er this convenient option. If you prefer manual crank operation to be independent in terms of energy supply, you will pick a classic, manual awning model. There are good arguments for each system version. To make your decision easier, we have put together all important facts in the table below.

The PW 3800 can also be used as a self-supporting awning without setting up the included support legs.
