Quick answer
Choose the SV-5 Max Peaked Side Panel Set if you own an SV-5 Max tent and want a dedicated, higher-peaked awning solution. Opt for the Eyre Peaked Side Panels if you have an Eyre tent and need a more affordable set that includes poles and a ridge bar.
Why peak height matters for your awning
Both peaked side panel sets create a higher peak in your tent's awning, which helps rain run off efficiently without forcing you to lower the front poles. This design is especially useful in wet weather, as it maintains headroom and keeps the awning functional.
Key trade-offs
- Price difference: Eyre Peaked Side Panels are priced at $125.99 (compare at $179.99), while the SV-5 Max Peaked Side Panel Set costs $255.59 (compare at $359.99). The Eyre set is significantly cheaper.
- Included hardware: The Eyre set includes extra 2.2m poles and a ridge bar; the SV-5 Max set does not list poles or ridge bar in its catalog fact. If you need poles, the Eyre set provides them out of the box. Check your current setup: if you already have poles for the SV-5 Max, the panel-only set may suffice.
- Tent compatibility: The SV-5 Max Peaked Side Panel Set is designed specifically for the SV-5 Max tent. The Eyre Peaked Side Panels are made for the Eyre tent. They are not interchangeable between tent models. Confirm your tent model before purchase to ensure proper fit and zip-on attachment.
