Camper trailer canvas tears

It was a Bell Canvas one, but judging by the responses so far, it sounds like a lack of care when folding away rather than quality / defect? Can't fault the canvas, as it is 15oz dynaproofed on the roof and 12oz dynaproofed on the walls. It's interesting that the same tears weren't on the opposite end of the camper.

I had an earlier KK ( now have the extended tent ) and folding the doors back enables you to see where the canvas can get pinched ( the extended tents doors can't be folded back )..but won't stop it happening if you aren't careful..

All C/T's have a weakness somewhere when folding them up.....you just have to know what it is !!

Is it usually the retractable poles that bite as they are being retracted? Or is it the metal bit that holds the three poles? I've never owned a camper trailer, so I appreciate if you can briefly explain the correct way to pack away a camper. Cheers!

Haven't heard of retactable poles biting the canvas. (I doubt that's even possible)
Different campers have different pinch points but on one's I've seen damaged, canvas wears in transit when sandwitched between poles, between the poles & body & cuts when caught in the pole hinge bracket. Often helps to have a 2nd person running around tucking the canvas in. Each camper will have a slightly different system of packing up & the dealer should explain that when you purchase it.

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. Have none of the camper trailer companies come up with something that can prevent the canvas from being caught in the pole hinge bracket?

Thanks Dave. The one I saw also had a vinyl/plastic cover over this spot, but it had also cut through this to get to the canvas.
