Opinion to RV Side Awning Shade Screens

Never had a side awning shade screen to block side sun rays in early morning and late afternoons. Do you have any experience with these and do they block enough sunlight to be worthwhile. I have a Greyhawk 31FS and my guess is that the correct width of 10 feet for this screen will match my awning.
Here is what I've been looking at: https://www.amazon.com/Awning-Motorh...g+shade+screen

Appreciate any and all input. Thanks.

To much work for the benefit???

I have looked at those and they seem to be to much work for the accrued benefit. I would think if you were in a place you want to use it then you are fairly exposed. Subsequently you are more likely to be effected by winds and other weather factors. So every time the winds get up or you want to leave the trailer for the day, you would have to take it down.

We have one and love it! It easily slides into the awning tube and provides excellent shade which has allowed us to spend much more time outside than before we purchased it.

My kids use wash line clips to clip beach towels to the side of the awning. Works great.
