What to know before buying
- Fit depends on more than overall dimensions: the listing says the frame should be 143 cm wide and deep, 195 cm high overall, and 138 cm tall before the roof starts to pitch. Measure the frame and check the profile before ordering.
- Fit the cover with the door unzipped and the frame poles and connectors securely joined. The listing advises against fitting in windy weather and says to position the frame on flat, level ground.
Listing details to confirm
The listing calls the material polyethylene and describes a reinforced mesh between two polyethylene layers, but also refers to the construction as PVC. Customer feedback is mixed on fit, with reports of some covers being 50 cm short in length and width, and on zippers, which some say broke during use while others praise their strength. The listing's durability and wind-resistance claims are not independently established.

Customer feedback reports positive impressions of quality and sturdiness, including comments that the cover stood up to strong winds, and some users appreciated it as a replacement. Fit and size feedback is mixed, with some saying it fits well and others reporting it was 50 cm short in length and width. Zipper experiences are also mixed, ranging from praise for strength to reports of breakage. For a replacement cover, those fit reports make measuring the frame and roof profile especially important, while the reported zipper concerns are relevant to frequent access. Aggregate ratings lean positive overall but do not establish how any particular cover will fit or perform.
