What type of awning mat does everyone have? What is the best type to get and is easy to use and clean?
We have been looking for a new mat for the awning area of the camper. They have some on sale at Camping world that is made of polypropaline or something. It folds up to a small size and has grommets to stake it down with. Just wondering what the best style to get is?
We currently use a piece of "turf" carpet for this but it is a little small for the new awning.

I was looking at those ones at camping world too. I'd like to hear what everybody has to say about them too.

We've been just using a tarp and would like to buy something else, so I am anxoius to see what you all have to say. etncc/anyone.gif

One of the guys I work with has one he purchased a couple of years ago and he really likes his. It folds up for easy storage and when it needs washing he just lays in to it with the water hose and then flips it over and does the other side. he says it can't be beat. I guess that will be the next add on for us.

I have a green/white one that I bought from camping world last year and they are really great. easy to clean and fold back up for storage. They definitly keep most of the dirt out of the camper when your not on a paved site. I think i paid &
$65 for mine from camping world but i think it was worth it. etncc/character0053.gif

We use a piece of green "turf" carpet form Lowes. I put my own gromets in the corners, and we replace it about every other year. Sure cheap enough to do that.

Hay Fisherpal,

We have THREE of them mats you are talking about, we love them all!! We have used indoor/outdoor carpet before and the green carpet you can get from some Wal-Mart's. Ladybug, has one with a Beach scene on it that we use at the beach.
Have one that is black/white checker board we use at the races we go to. One that is colored match to the camper we use most of the time. I love how you clean the mats, I lay them on the drive way and take a soft brush and water hose to them and let the sun try them.. We got them at Camping World for $69. But, last year at the Wal-Mart in Myrtle Beach on 544hwy. thay had them for $45.00 YES, the same mat!!!!! laugh.gif laugh.gif Hope this will help you thay are $$ but, worth it. if like to have a NICE MAT..........

we have one from camping world and some campgrounds do not allow the indoor outdoor carpet and the ones at camping world have been approved by all major campgrounds that ban some awning mats

My husband went to Lowe's and got indoor-outdoor carpet, we cut it to the size we needed. We just shake it out. We roll it up and put it in the TT for storage.
