We've had this for a little over a year now. It helped by covering our furniture and keeping the color from fading (one side of the cover is now completely beige due to the sun). However, the material is not very durable and it ripped earlier this season. Once there is a tear, it gets larger and larger pretty quickly if you don't sew/fix it. It's held up with my sew job, but I wish the material was a little thicker to help weather the winter.
