    I think you’ve hit the nail on the head there, Chris – “for a few days”.  They are possibly worth the hassle of putting up and taking down if you don’t have to move for a few days.

    I speak from experience… back in the ’80s/90s I bought a Safari Room as it seemed a jolly good idea.  I quickly became aware that,  although the hassle of putting it up was minor, the “putting up/taking down” routine was just a pain every time we wanted to go out, or even fill up with water!  I sold it later that year, after our holiday, and bought a stand-alone framed awning tent.  That was much better, but even then, on a mainly touring holiday it was a nuisance just finding somewhere in the motorhome to stow it!

    Those panels of yours look like a good compromise, though – lighter weight and smaller than a full Safari Room.  Sun blockers are also available.

    Thanks.
