This is a lovely, durable, and completely waterproof cover for outdoor furniture. The first one I bought wasn’t long enough to cover my outdoor sofa, so I had to return and buy a larger size, but once I selected the correct size, it was fabulous. I didn’t even use the tabs at the bottom to secure it, I just slipped it over the top of the sofa and it kept everything 100% dry.My only advice is make sure you don’t leave it on too long. I live in the Midwest, where there are lots of mice outside. I got lazy and left the cover on my sofa after a rain. When I went outside a couple days later, a field mouse had taken up residence underneath the cover because it provided him shelter. Long story short, he ate through my cushions and there were mouse droppings everywhere. So if you’re looking for something to keep the rain off of your patio furniture, short term, this is a great solution. Just don’t forget to take it off when the sun comes out!
