I ordered, received in perfect condition the ordered item. It was described as heavy-duty, weather-resistant, polyester, but the item is actually vinyl, and thin and light. I generally would just go to Lowes but since Lowes does not carry model 4000 grill, they do not have the cover. I saw the cover for the duo grill and it appears to be thicker material.
I don't want the thinner vinyl cover because it will last only one year or so, based on my experience in the past of similar material. I live in southern California where it is debatable whether I really need a thin vinyl cover to protect this heavy steel grill. Thankfully I got it from Amazon. This is the first time ever I had to return through Amazon and the return process is like a breath of fresh air.
The factory (Chargriller) customer service informed me that the newer covers are made with heavier material. They don't know when those will be available for model 4000 gas grill. I guess I will have to wait or just keep the grill exposed and clean often.
I never even opened the bag so I do not know if there is a string at the bottom to hold the cover from wind or not. I do hope the future ones will have it.

I purchased this grill cover in July of 2011 and used it outside for about 3 months. The color immediately faded within a few weeks of being out in the sun. I stored the grill with the cover on it in my garage over the winter. When I brought it back out in June 2012 it started falling apart, the fabric is shredded in some places and the seams are falling apart. If you are only looking for a grill cover for one summer then this would be great, but most consumers expect things to last longer than that. In total the cover was used outside for about 8 months total, and is useless at this point.Best Deals for Char-Griller 4055 Grill Cover, fits Grillin' Pro 4000
This grill cover works fine. My grill sits exposed on my deck, when we get windy weather the cover blows off the grill (it is not fitted in any way). I modified the cover by putting an elastic strap on the bottom to "close" the cover and still allow air flow. You could also just put some weights on the burner plates to keep it down, too. Would be a better product if it were fitted, however, the fix is fairly quick to make.Honest reviews on Char-Griller 4055 Grill Cover, fits Grillin' Pro 4000
I bought one of these when I first bought my grill. Now maybe this one is different material or treatment. (at least I hope so) but the first one lasted less than two years and then literally fell apart. Now I am not gonna rate this one for issues with the first one I owned, but this one does not fit NEARLY as well. It's almost like they started making them "baggy style". Trust me the fit is not nearly as good as the picture. The first one I owned fit like a glove (just like the photo shows). Therefore I dropped it to four out of five stars.So if this one starts to fade in less than six months like the first one did, you can believe I'm coming back to drop this review to 1 star.
