Loved the original but the velcro straps ripped off, so Weber, in its most awesomeness, sent me a replacement.  This cover has stood up just as well. No fade, no tears in body, protects great in winter, but again this summer we had a little wind storm and the velcro straps just ripped off the body/stitching. Velcro attaches strong but the stitching of the adhesives to the cover just need a stronger stitch. Aside from that it's the best grill cover there is.
