Protect your RV slide-out from debris and keep moisture out of your siding with this slide-topper awning. Prevents water damage and mildew. Made for slide-outs that measure up to 13'1" from edge to edge. Includes all necessary components.
Features:
Specs:
To ensure you get the correct size awning for your slide-out, measure from outer edge to outer edge of the trim. You will need 7" of clearance on both sides of the slide-out for the awning. If you don't have 7" clearance on both sides, go down to the next size; this will still give your slide-out plenty of coverage.
If there are two slide-outs next to each other, you will need a total of 14" of clearance between them for them both to have a slide-out awning. Again, you can go down a size if you are low on space.
Without a slide-topper, the roof of your slide-out room is continually exposed and can accumulate leaves and bugs and different types of debris. That debris can build up along the rubber strip at the top of your box, preventing a firm seal when your slide-out is retracted. Rain water can then get in and pool on the top of your slide-out. If you don't clear the water off each time it rains, mold can begin to form. And when your slide-out is pulled in, that mold gets inside your RV.
The Solera RV slide-out awning alleviates those problems by serving as a protective covering over the top of your RV's slide-out. Not only does it prevent debris from collecting on the roof of your slide-out, but it keeps water from pooling and potentially causing damage down the road. Because it mounts directly to the front of the slide box, the slide-out awning is able to automatically extend and retract every time the slide-out room is extended or retracted.
The durable awning fabric holds up to the rigors of the outdoors. It's made of premium 13.5-oz vinyl, which is an upgrade over the 10-oz fabric used in many awnings. This fabric also features heat-welded seams to prevent leaks. And it is made to withstand cold temperatures down to -25 degrees Fahrenheit, so it won't crack or degrade during the winter.
Use the self-tapping screws to secure the included access plate to the side of your slide-out, positioning the plate at the bottom of the T-molding. The two access brackets slide easily onto the access plate's track. The rods that are located at each end of the roller tube, which comes with the awning fabric already mounted, slide through the hole in the two access brackets.
The included awning rail is used to anchor the other side of the fabric to your RV. This rail can be mounted up to 5" above the trim on top of your slide box.
Note: It's important that the slide-topper sits at as steep an angle as possible so that any rainwater will drain immediately. Any water that sits in the awning can stretch out the fabric permanently and warp it out of shape.

Protect your RV slide-out from debris and keep moisture out of your siding with this slide-topper awning. Prevents water damage and mildew. Made for slide-outs that measure up to 13'1" from edge to edge. Includes all necessary components.Product was destroyed in transit. Please refund my money. I will not be interested in further negotiations with e trailer. It seems to be a systematic issue with your choice of transportation vendor. Best wishes.
The product is a good product if I could get one shipped to me that was not damaged. The shipper etrailer uses Tforce and they really suck. I have received two of these awnings and both were bent and unusable. I received a refund for the first one ordered another it was also bent. I recommend ordering from another vender.
I purchased the Lippert solera slide topper for our camper sence all the reviews and information I have read is that this is the best brand to get.
Looks good and can't wait to install it this summer. The first one showed up damage & missing parts during freight shipping but I called etrailers customer service and they got things going on what to do next. Alison B. a customer service rep contacted me and with a few calls and emails they sent out a New one & everything worked out great. Thanks again to Alison & the customer service team .I will definitely purchase more from etrailer in the future. Pictures to be posted of the install later when warm weather returns.

I finally got the Lippert Solera slide topper installed and it works great. Really easy install with 2 people and I really love that now I dont have to climb up every time we go to close the slideout to remove any debri. Great purchase. ??

Received item as described. Have not opened package to verify everything but ordering and follow up after delivery by etrailer was great.Shipping company was great as well as they called prior to delivery and were able to accommodate time since they needed signature upon delivery.
Start at 5-stars.
Awning arrived damaged. That may be the sellers fault or it could have been damaged by the shipper. Now 4-1/2 stars
etrailer sent out a new replacement part that arrived quickly. Back at 5-stars.
Unfortunately there was no instructions in the package regarding how to safely change this spring loaded part. After contacting etrailer requesting info on how to change the part, they had no clue. I was told to contact Lippert. Remove 2-stars.
Final Rating of 3 Average stars. Nothing special about etrailer. They did not go above and beyond average…but could have by sending or at least having detailed information regarding how to safely replace this spring loaded part.
The awning is a tremendous help in keeping rain off our slideout. Would definitely recommend. Fairly easy to install
The product is excellent, the shipping was awful. Received the first shipment, the shipping tube and product was near bent in half. Had to send it back, easy reorder. Second shipment arrive, the driver didn't even want to take it out of the truck the tube was so badly damaged. There were holes punch into the shipping tube and the end cap was missing. It took both of us to remove the contents of the tube. Luckly the holes missed the product and did not damage it. Driver stated he would report it to this boss as he had no idea how the tube could have been so abused as to put holes in it.

The product is still going strong. You will need at least 3 people to help install it. The product has worked flawlessly since install.
Product was received later than scheduled. The package ends were quite beaten. Both Idler End Caps are quite scared. The carrier provided me with a Control number, I believe it’s to confirm the condition of the freight.
I did send an mail with photos toetrailer.com I am waiting for a reply.

Our Lippert Awning is a pleasure and time saver by reducing debris on the slide out. Etrailer did a follow up with shipping damages, assured replacement of damaged components. We are quite satisfied with Etrailer’s customer concern and personalized feedback. Highly recommend Etrailer for all your needs.
After receiving the first awning that a came damaged. I called and they were so accommodating to my needs, and resolved my case right away. Well definitely continue shopping at etrailer
2019 3811ms Montana. These were easy to install, and all three went up in one day. No more worries of water standing or leaves when closing up trailer. I highly recommend this product! Had one issue with a damaged awning when it arrived, etrailer was very helpful and had a new one sent out promptly.
Carol, I wanted to send you photos of how I received my two packages from the freight company. Y'all have been great to deal with but the delivery method needs improving. As long as my awnings are not missing any parts and are not damaged, I will be happy. But I just got back home and found the boxes like this. I thought you would want to know.
Excellent product solved leaking problem. Easy to install, great price.
Package arrived in mostly good shape, topper was not damaged, installed according to your video.
These fit well, withstand pretty strong winds (they flap some, but haven’t broken), and have stayed stretched tight and not sagged. And of course, they do a nice job of keeping rain, sticks and leaves off our slides. My 5th wheel is also considerably quieter when it rains. No problems after a full year of full time RVing…….don’t even have to think about them……..what’s not to like?
I didn't realize what I was missing untill i got the awning. No more water in camper from storms, no more climbing ladders to clean roof. Looks great and fits perfect. Would definitely recommend getting one for any camper slide.
Installed 3 solera slider (slide topper) on my Jayco 338 RETS Eagle Premier. Looks great and functions very well. Keeps rain, leaves and sticks from slide outs and retracting the slide outs for travel keeps inside of RV clean. Great investment, great price and great product. Very, very pleased. Thank you. Sam
First of all the customer service at etrailer was 10 stars. The product came quickly via Estes and I was able to install before I leave for vacation. Now, why I gave it 4 stars. This was a manufacturer’s issue, the bracket that connects to the awning rod has a little compressed pin that holds the bracket to the roller, the pin was missing on one side causing it to come apart when the tension cotter pin was pulled out to release the awning tension. We had to take the end cap off to pull the rod back out and then rewind the tension. Thank goodness for the tension cotter pin which fit perfectly in the hole to hold the bracket and awning together. Again, this was Lipperts problem not etrailer. Otherwise, it works great.
ETrailer was awesome. After price matching (beating) the price for these slideout toppers at Camping World some arrived damaged during shipping. They promptly corrected all of my issues and sent replacements.
After this great customer support I'll use ETrailer whenever possible from now on.
1st RV - 1st awning - 1st install - I have no comparison to rate the awning with 5 stars, but everything seem good quality and install was easily achieved with help to slide into place. One thing I wonder about is that the roller curves inward at the center towards the RV from tension. It may be due to the long length.
Met my expectations. Material seems to be of good quality. Installed the beginning of the 2022 camping season. So far so good!
Still working great after one year, highly recommend.
Installed three toppers on my 5th wheeler and three more on neighbors RV’s and happy to report fairly easy installs and quality product with satisfied customers.
I thought this would be one of my greatest challenges since I retired. Wow my neighbor and I had the installed in under 20 minutes tops. The 17’ slide awning looks awesome and works great!! I was also very impressed with the quality of the awning as well as how it was shipped awning
Thanks guys
