I bought this item from Amazon about 3 months ago to keep my grill protected from the lower Michigan outdoors. It does the job keeping my grill clean and dry and it is waterproof.

After 3 months of use of constant outdoor use, here are my cons:

1. The side facing the sun has started to fade. The blue is starting to look weathered. The grey portion is still in good shape. (Note, there is no loss of weather protection, just the color)

2. As you see in the picture, the cover extends all the way down to the wheels. This is not the case with my grill. It extends about 2" short of the bottom flat portion of my grill. This for me isn't an issue, but it does allow water to get on the bottom portion of my grill where my propane tank sits.

3. During wind, the grill cover will lift itself up and undress the grill. I haven't quite figured out an elegant way of strapping down the grill cover to prevent this. Wish they would have added some weight to the trailing ends to keep the cover down during wind.

Overall, for the price I paid, I am not too worried about these cons. I do wish the color would have held better, but next time I'll buy a single color cover. It does the job and it is made for this brand of grills.

Would I buy this grill cover again? Probably not. I'd research different material types to meet my needs; that of a 24/7 grill cover during Spring, Summer and Fall.

The Char-Broil 65-Inch Artisan Grill Cover provides the protection you need to keep your grill in good condition. Five years ago, we purchased one of these for the warehouse store stainless steel grill. The grill is the house-brand and measures approximately 24" wide X 54" long X 44" high. This cover is sufficiently roomy and covers all but about the lower 4 inches of the base and pedestal which face toward the center of the covered porch. We do have the cover pulled down closer to the floor at the rear of the grill; that side is more exposed to the elements.

Even though our grill is protected by the roof on our back porch, south Texas' weather can rapidly cause damage to grills which have not been kept covered. By the same token, the heat and sun can also cause the materials from which grill covers are constructed to deteriorate. After five years, the old cover's seams were coming apart, and it was time to purchase another Char-Broil 65-Inch Artisan Grill Cover. I was very pleased to find this grill cover was still available. However, like so many other products, the weight of the fabric is not what it once was. It is definitely better than a vinyl cover which can be easily torn, but I do not expect it will last five years. Additionally, the stitching did not seem to be as tight as it formerly had been. For these reasons, I rated this item as a four-star purchase.

We purchased our first Char-Broil 65-Inch Artisan Grill Cover from our local Lowes and paid close to $40 for it. The current price on Amazon was a real bargain. If you need a good quality grill cover and do not want to spend a small fortune, I recommend you take a look at the Char-Broil 65-Inch Artisan Grill Cover.

APRIL 2012 UPDATE: The Char-Broil Grill Cover easily fits Weber's Genesis Grill series and is about 1/3 the cost of a Weber grill cover.

I got a new BBQ and I wanted to make sure it didn't get ugly quick like my old one, so I got this cover to keep it nice. It fits my BBQ without issue and keeps rain & dirt from getting through, but it is more cumbersome to get it unfolded and over the BBQ then i would have liked and the color doesn't really match the pic.

It was cheap and does the job though, so a positive review.
