I can't really comment on the new chaise covers I just purchased from Classic Accessories, because I only bought them a couple of weeks ago. However, I can comment on the identical item that I purchased 8 years ago.It lasted 7 years and it was used all year around. Usually the very high Arizona summer temperatures preclude patio items lasting more that a couple of years. Through 7 years, they always looked great and did an excellent job of protecting my chaise cushions, which always looked brand new because of the Classic Accessories chaise covers. Finally, this year, the 8th season, the covers got a few splits in the fabric and I decided to replace them. I was very happy that I was able to find what appears to be the identical item again after a Google search. I recommend the chaise covers without reservation!
