I cant even tell you how badly I needed this product. I live in AZ where the sun is always out and monsoon season for those who know about it. Without a cover on my grill, you could start seeing a small amount of dull fading on the grills black coat. It rains too and there's already a rust on the side smoke champer. It fits like a glove. Apparently I heard this cover fades and disintegrates in areas but I haven't seen anything like that nor any indication there will be. In all, its perfect and does the job.
