I bought this for our outdoor dining table with 8 chairs. It is definitely water repellant. However, rain and melted snow are constantly pooling in between the table and chairs. The bottom edge is a couple inches from the ground, so I’m confident it’s the correct size for my table. My husband got so  frustrated he just took it off. I then bought the blow up pillow to raise it, and put the cover back on. While less water is pooling now, there is still enough that I’ve been going out and dumping it off after every rain and thaw. I won’t be doing that once I have to trek through a foot of snow to get to  the table...
