Mine lasted through exactly 5 years of wind, sun, rain, snow - bought it again.
I think it's a pretty decent cover - attractive, and reasonably robust.Bought my first one in the summer of 2015 to cover a gas grill that mostly sits on an outdoor patio. Grill gets used several times per week during the warmer months, then mostly sits idle. During winters I typically wheeled the covered grill into the garage for storage, but this past winter (almost no snow) I actually left it outdoors.After five years the fabric got thin and brittle, which resulted in some large tears around the upper corners (not seams, but the fabric itself).I was pleased enough with it that I just bought the same one again in June of 2020. Photo shows new one next to five year old version. You can see the fading, and there are several large rips, which aren't really visible, but you get the idea.There may possibly be more durable ones on the market, but for the price, I was pleased with it. It did the job of protecting the grill from the elements quite well. Many of the others were black or more obtrusive colors; I preferred the more neutral colors of this cover.Your mileage may vary - I suppose if you pull the cover on and off more often, it will wear out faster. More direct sunlight will probably also destroy it more quickly - mine was shaded for a good portion of each day.I think it's a solid product and recommend it.

Good cover but watch sharp corners on your grill
I bought this cover almost exactly 1 year ago XL size for Brinkmann 6550S 5 burner- doesn't quite go to bottom of grill but fits well in width, depth. I just bought my 2nd as the other day my 1st one caught a sharp corner of the grill and ripped like a T-shirt would. Can see in picture laying on top of 2nd new cover. I decided to buy another as I like the color (hate big black covers) and still think worth the price, even if lasts a year. I'm in North Georgia so we get as low as 6-10F and high as above 100F did fine, stayed supple to remove it (used it often) But when I took the old one off and put the new one on I can tell the 1 year old one was a little less supple than the new, but not as bad as the black plastic would have been. It also bleached out and mildewed which can see in pics, I'll watch with this new one as didn't even realize. I still like it and ranked it 4 stars because it tore so easy but to URBNGear defense, not their fault my grill had a sharp corner. I also bought one for my Masterbuilt full electric smoker and doesn't really fit as you can see in pic, but again I liked the neutral color and not stare at a black square on my deck. This is under a covered porch so wasn't as concerned if didn't go all the way down. If it wasn't for the tearing so easy, I probably would have ranked it 5 stars...I've since put some duck tape on sharp corner so maybe check your grill

Durable and waterproof
This was not the first grill cover I bought for my grill, the other I used before this one was advertised as waterproof but after the first rainstorm after purchasing it, the grill was covered in water.I decided to go with this one based on the positive reviews, and I was not disappointed at all. It was a bit loose on my grill but after adjusting the cover it fit very well. It is very easy to remove and after a few times taking it on and off I can put it on by myself in about 30 seconds. The first rainstorm after the purchasing was a doozy with high winds and hail, and the cover worked perfectly, my grill was dry afterwards even along the bottom where past grill covers I or my parents used would flap up and allow in water.I did reorder the cover after the first one ripped. This was only after sitting outside all winter, dealing with snow and rain nonstop and not being cleaned off like it should have been, and the rip was still only after a younger cousin pulled down on it and it was caught on the smokestack of my grill, even then a little bit of duct tape kept it in good shape for a week before I ordered the exact same cover. I am just as happy with the new one.Overall I cannot recommend this grill cover enough and I did not was 100% committed to buying the same model after the first one was ripped.Pros:- Waterproof in snow, rain and thunderstorms even around the bottom- Easy to put on and take off- Fit snugly on grill after a few adjustmentsCons:- Couldn't stand up after a winter of abuse and being pulled over the smokestack (not even a big con)- The drawstring tends to loosen if the grill is moved with the cover on it.

At first blush, it looks pretty good and well designed. Time will tell if it holds up.
Cover was received on time ... and it appears well made. (Time will tell.) The previous grill cover (another brand) I had started shredding after about 2-1/2 years on a _covereed_ patio. This cover seems to be better made (even though it costs less) and has some nice touches with ventilation slits (designed to keep rain out) and a zippered pouch (that I have no clue of its purpose). However, the pouch does add a double layer of fabric in that area (that might improve the durability). In the end, I'll not know how well this cover will hold up over time -- that is the key point. From other reviews, I've noticed that many grill covers fail after two or three years... if that is the case, then simply getting one of the less-expensive models is the most cost effective choice. If this one holds up for a longer period ... then that would prove to be a winner. (And if it does last longer, I will re-visit this review and award it the fifth "star.")
