We purchased this same cover from Lowe's last year and it didn't last the year. It faded and disintigrated. The original cover that came with the BBQ was vinyl and lasted for years! I just purchased this one from Amazon because the description says "vinyl". It is NOT vinyl!!! It is the same crappy one that I bought from Lowe's last year. CHANGE YOUR DESCRIPTION!!!! I wish I could find the original cover that came with it when we purchased it 8 years ago. What a waste of money!!!
