Outwell Jonesville 290SA

Our Opinion:-

The Jonesville 290SA is a NEW design and a style of driveaway awning that Outwell have been missing from their range. The Jonesville 290SA is a side attaching awning. This means that the awnings main length runs alongside your vehicle,so unlikely to be penalised by campsites. Despite the awnings having the SA designation it is not a Smart Air Awning. SA used to refer to Outwells Single inflation system. The Jonesville 290SA features multi-inflation Air beams, you inflate each tube separately. This is our preferred system as there is less plumbing involved so less to go wrong. It there is a puncture in a tube, it is just that tube that deflates and it is easier to trace the puncture. It is nice to also see Outwell making a range of replacement tubes, and like we advise with any poled tent or awning if is a wise precaution to buy and keep a spare tube.

The design features a vertical front door with a nice sized extended canopy and the option of moving the front door to the outer position giving more living area, making it ideal for the British climate. 

The Jonesville 290SA also has a removable link tunnel. This means the tunnel section of the awning is removable and can be fitted to suit a UK or Continental Spec Van with the sliding door on the left or Right of the vehicle, also ideal for VW California which despite being UK spec Right Hand Drive, have the sliding door on the Right hand Side like continental van. With other makes of awnings of this style you have to buy a specific Right Hand Door or Left Hand Door awning. The removable Link Tunnel can also be removed so you can use the Jonesville 290SA as a tent.

Lots of mesh windows give good ventilation and keep bugs at bay, Tinted Windows, to reduce UV, heat & Glare and a sewn-in groundsheet.Outwell awnings also feature their Link Access System which provides a groundsheet for the tunnel section of the awning with a valance to close the gap under the vehicle and help keep out draughts.

We would always stress that the Tunnel section of a driveaway awning is only ever a sheltered entrance and will never be draught free. Remember that unlike a caravan awning, driveaway awnings have front and back doors that can be zipped up and this is the weatherproof section of the awning.

 Drive-away tent awning for motorhomes, vans and MPVs with attachment height of 175 cm-200 cm.

Flexible access is via twin doors in both sides of the Link Access Zone and a side door on the tent.
