Garden Home Heavy Duty 72" Grill Cover (BLACK, 70 INCH With Brush)

I have a Broil King Sovereign grill which measures 70 inches across. Just to be safe I ordered the 72" cover and I'm glad that I did because that cover fits my grill perfectly. Had I gone with the 70" cover I don't know how that would have fit.I haven't noticed any apparent fading of the black color of the cover, as others have reported, but that may be due to the fact that: I live in a heavily wooded area, the grill is located on the North side of the house and we've not received our usual amount of sunshine so far this year due to the many rainy days we've experienced this year.The cover appears to do a really good job protecting the grill from the elements and keeps the grill dry when it rains. I live just North of Houston and we've seen an insane amount of rain this spring and I have total confidence that the grill is well protected. I strongly recommend these covers based on the performance I've witnessed this spring from this grill cover (and the rains ain't over yet).However.....This gripe may be particular to my cover since I didn't notice any similar complaints of this nature when I read through the comments that others left for their covers. What is happening is that this cover has a zippered accessory pocket located on the front of the cover, roughly right above where the handle is to lift the grill's lid is located, and it that takes on water when it rains. To be sure we've seen an extraordinarily huge amount of rain this spring but even when a "normal" rain comes along the pocket takes on water. True to the nature of the material it stays in the pocket! It doesn't seem to want to drain out so I have to wrangle the cover around so that I can open the zipper and let the water flow out and then refit it to the grill.I've examined the pocket and zipper to the best of my abilities and it looks like the zipper securely closes (and yes, I have been keeping it zipped all the way closed since day one - so it's not operator error) and I cannot see any obvious holes in the material which may allow the water to breach the interior of the pocket. I believe that I will poke a hole or two in the bottom of the storage pocket with an awl so as to allow water drainage during times of rain. Like I stated previously this doesn't appear to be normal product performance based on other reviews that I've read. So for that reason I have to conclude that I received an example with a manufacturing flaw. Based on the overall performance of my grill cover I will live with the issue since I have no need to store anything in that pocket, nor had I planned to, so all I need to do is poke some drain holes in it and problem solved.Even though I would still recommend this grill cover (albeit with a caveat) I knock off two stars for the following reasons; 1) the accessory pocket allows water to enter that environment (which it shouldn't IMO) and 2) it's an unexpected hassle to have to drain that darn grill cover after it rains.

We live in an area that gets VERY windy during the winter months and stays windy off and on the rest of the year. We've been buying a new cover about twice a year for almost 10 years. To be blunt, it became ridiculous. My husband decided he'd just let the grill rust until we need to buy a new grill rather than a new cover. I wasn't a big fan of this idea. I decided to try one last ditch effort and read reviews to see if there is something out there that wouldn't rip easily. Turns out, I FOUND IT! We've now had this cover for the majority of the windiest part of the year for us and we do not have a single hole, rip, or tear. The only reason I did not give this a 5 star rating is because it is faded, but I must mention that this gets sun all day, every day. It's a wonderfully made cover that can't be beat with anything I've found yet!

Pros - great quality materials, lots of extras, looks very durable. Has ties to ensure cover does not blow off, seems very well made.Cons - Extras (pockets) Why? The big problem is the ties to cinch cover on barbecue have a buckle that needs to be pulled tight and released each time it is used. A couple of fastteck buckles would have been about same price and made installing and removing soo much easier.

Color (black) Fades fast, but fit great

This grill cover is made of heavy duty material and has really stood the tests of weather, time, use, and sun exposure. After about a year, it still looks just about the same as it did the day we unpacked it. It has drawstrings on the bottom to cinch it up against the grill to ensure the grill is well protected and the cover doesn't go anywhere. We've had intense snow, winds of up to 100 MPH, and temperatures over 100 degrees. This grill cover hasn't seemed to lose any strength or durability. After going through several other covers that ended up tearing or flat out decaying, this cover is the perfectly ideal product, and I'm a customer for life.

Ordered this for an usual size grill (this cover has a few inches on each side extra). I wanted something that would fit good and durable. I was worried about extra slack being a few inches bigger on either side, fits a little better than expected. Feels durable. My grill is in the covered porch but still gets hit with the elements, but this cover will protect my grill from rusting out. It was cheaper to buy the cover at the time with the brush, so now I have an extra brush. Seems a little durable, haven't really used it yet.

It was pretty heavy duty at first and fit my dual fuel grill pretty well, but after 2 years of wind, rain, snow, temperature extremes and two moves, I noticed in early spring it had started to thin and tear at spots, and has now disintegrated, shredded and completely died.
