Vango Balletto 390 Instructions
Warranty and Protection
Peace of Mind Protection: Every Balletto comes with a solid two-year manufacturer's guarantee covering stitching, materials, and workmanship.
Bonus: Pop your details on the registration form within six months of buying, and Vango will throw in an extra year's coverage - no strings attached.
Keep in mind this doesn't cover sun damage, accidents, or storm damage, and your awning needs to come back clean and dry if you need to make a claim. Hang onto your receipt too - you'll need it if anything goes wrong.
We know buying an awning online and getting the right fit can be a bit nerve-wracking.
That's why we've created our Perfect Fit Promise.
It's simple: if the awning isn't the perfect fit for your setup, send it back within 30 days and we'll organise an exchange or refund.
We offer free UK delivery, read more in our shipping policy.
We offer 30-day returns, we'll even pay the postage. Read more about our refund policy.
