I've tried their 160W solar panel foldable. I could never get the full wattage, and worse it kept falling down with the wind, so I ended up just laying it flat. I ended up returning it because I just didn't like it and found it no better than the cheap knock off version of similar item I bought on amazon. The ecoflow power stations are excellent though. I would just buy a refurb off their ebay store.

How many watts did you able to get out of that 160 solar?

I think one time I got about 140W at the best angle. I'm in the desert too. When they were flat on the ground at the best time of day I would get low 120s.

I got a knockoff version on amazon BEFORE buying ecoflow panels and it performed similarly. I incorrectly assumed ecoflow would be better, probably because of their reputation, but then was really disappointed that it was very similar in performance.

Again, the ecoflow power stations are great though...the above is just my experience with the 160w foldable panels

I ended up keeping the Harbor Freight 100W foldable (2 piece). It gives 120W and it doesn't fall over even in the worst wind. This is very expensive though for what it gives you and I view it as a travel/camping panel. For stationary setup, it's cheaper to buy large used panels.

I live in the desert too so lots of sunlight.

The better deal is probably the power station on its own for $579. It's $300 more expensive with the solar panel. For that much I could probably find better options for panels if I wanted solar to go with it.

Highly unreliable unit, AC+USB will randomly shut off and their customer service knows about the bug but will run around circles (reset, upgrade to latest firmware, load check etc. etc.)...I am glad I was able to return within 30 days...do a quick google search to read more

I had my main sumpump running on this, and thank God the backup tookover in the middle of the night

I have a delta 1300 and so far so good, but I have read about issues people have with customer service, and because of that if I was ever going to buy anything bigger (over $500) I'd probably only do it through costco. Although it might cost more, I think it's worth the security..

$299 is a good deal for the 220w bifacial panel as part of this combo if you want this specific panel. It's priced at least $100 more on it's own. Caveat is that the panel is rather large and heavy. Priced fairly competitively compared to other 200w portable panels on the market.
