Received the lounge covers and put one (of 2) on the lounge to check everything out.  Tag said to wash before first use so both went in to the washer and dryer.  There were numerous cases where the stitched edged frayed in just the initial washing.  The cover was much more comfortable than cushion upholstery.   Not as pretty as the cushion upholstery but sometimes you opt for comfort over aesthetics.
