Solera Universal Slide-Topper Replacement Cut-to-Fit Fabric for 5th Wheel RVs, Travel Trailers, Motorhomes, 50' x 48" roll, Black - 432253

Compared to what an RV repair shop charged me to replace the fabric on a motorhome slideout awning topper, this is a SUPER DEAL! Exactly the correct size, and the two plastic ribs preinstalled on each side of the fabric made installing this fabric easy. Cutting it to size is a breeze when using the old fabric as a guide. The two toppers on my motorhome are 7’ and 25’ long. I replaced the short one. So I’ve still got enough to do the short one TWICE more AND the long one once.My advice is to replace the fabric BEFORE it completely rips off your motorhome. Once that happens, the springs unload. It’s not too difficult to retention the springs; however, you have to know how many turns to rotate the tube to achieve the proper tension without over doing the springs. If you see your awning topper fabric beginning to tear at the ends where it is affixed to the motorhome, order this material and get the job done ASAP. You will thank yourself profusely.For those wondering, the shop charged me $815 to replace the 25’ fabric after the material had ripped off entirely. Consider that the fabric cost them $85 at most!!! That’s a seriously nice profit eh.

The product itself was great. My husband was able to replace all of our slide out toppers on our 2006 Monaco diplomat in just a matter of hours. They look really sharp. The shipping said we would receive it on Sunday, but it didn’t actually get to us until Monday. That was extremely disappointing because we really needed it on Sunday. I find that a lot of sellers tend to say they will get somethingto you on a certain day and then you get it a day or several days later. So just be aware of that.

A very sturdy and well designed product. Very easy to install on any slide topper. Very durable and priced great. A must for any DIY’r wanting to replace their slide toppers

The original topper is stitched down the sides, this is not so it's unknown how resilient it will be. I agree wholeheartedly that 50' for $160 is way better than 81" for $230. However, I had researched this and read the reviews about not stretching it so I was super careful to roll it out of the box. It took me a bit to cut through it with a razor knife so that gave me some hope. It was easy to install but as careful as I was one side was tight and the other had a sag in it. I had to slide the material way to one side of the roller just to make it somewhat better. It's not horrible but, if it was stretched like that right out of the box it makes me wonder how long it will last. Hopefully, it will!(Update) I had mentioned in this review that I had to slide the material over on the roller after being very careful to center everything. It made a big difference and as I looked at it I noticed that the original was the same way so maybe there was a reason for it. The longer this Solaris material has been on the slide out, the more it has settled in. It worked out fine the remainder of the camping season. I will update again as we go into next season.

This roll worked perfect for replacing our Care Free slide out toppers. Installation was easy, but I would recommend cutting the cordage 1/2" longer on either end as it shrank in the heat during our installation of the slideouts.

So your slide covers are brittle broke and rolled into the housing. My Seneca has a 24 foot wall slide. Where can I get something this long. NOWHERE. how much for a new one oh maybe in the neighborhood of 500$ or more! Some one might cut you a custom length one and ship it for 10 times the gas to drive across the country and get it your self.Thus the Solera in a box. 50 feet of DIY bliss. is it hard to install NOPE.Mine is a carefree SOK and there are plenty of youtubes on how to do it.What I learned is all slide outs use this width dimension even if its longer or shorter coming out it will not exceed the width you need. this is truly universal.As far as durability I dont know and really dont care as there is enough in the box to do this maybe twice. Heavier material double stitch, custom cut to fit, whatever the market is telling you to buy more expensive fabric don't, once it starts billowing and tearing down the cords it doesn't matter how much you spent on the fancy fabric.Another tip is: If your awning was cut by a amish guy on crack as all rvs are made like crap. pay attention to your slide topper overhang if it isnt longer then your slide out walls your gonna have a super expensive leak in your slideout box.Run this fabric as long as the tube will allow giving maybe 1/2-3/4 inch play on each end this will ensure the water runs off the side of the fabric and not down your slideout walls rotting them out.The simple fact it comes in a 50ft roll if you have long slides is enough to pull the trigger on this fabric.This is a reasonably priced product for a seemingly difficult task of renewing your slide out awnings. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

We did take it to an upholstery shop to have the edges turned & sealed to provide more stability and fit well. Previous one bought and had to return since poly cords were too small but the ones are for this one are larger and fit well. We have a 2004 Monaco. Very happy with product just needed about 20 feet give or take not 50 feet but still worth it!

Awesome deal. Really good quality. Easy to install. I was a little worried that I wouldn't be able to cut it straight as the original and it wouldn't look as nice. However, when I removed the original I found that it wasn't straight at all! If never noticed it before. I used a utility knife and a scrap piece of plywood to back it. Then I used a large framers square as a guide and cut it much straighter than the original. Went up in place easy peasy. I have a 33' bumper pull with two slides. With what's in the box I have enough to do both slides twice for the price I would have paid for 1 of the better quality slide toppers that were pre-cut for my size slide. The material is much better quality than the original.
