AZ Patio Heater Tall Patio Heater Cover - 87" - Mocha

First day I put it on my lamp it ripped, literally. Was a windy day, acted as a sail and my lamp went over and the rim nicked the fabric of which it became a giant tare and the wind finished it off. Not sure if the one i got had a tare but i cut my loses and moved on to a much better one with a noticeably more robust fabric shell (Classic Accessories Ravenna Patio Heater Cover) from that big warehouse store that starts with C.

A cautionary note: Unless you are exceptionally handy, this is not a product you want to attempt to assemble yourself. And certainly not alone. For starters, the assembly instructions are barely comprehensible; they were poorly translated into English. But beyond that (because it's not terribly difficult to piece together in your mind how the pieces should fit together, if you've spent your life assembling and disassembling things), the actual pieces of the unit are poorly machined. By that I mean that bolts don't do into their receptacles without undue force; the unit isn't naturally balanced; etc. Beyond that, the overall build quality seems unusually "thin" for something at this price point. This is nowhere near the heft of an outdoor heating unit you might see at your local restaurant. The coup de gras is that the unit I purchased was missing the "catch" for the latch that keeps the door (inside which the propane tank is stored) closed. I contact customer service, which was excellent and shipped the missing piece out to me immediately, at no cost. But the representative informed me that 90% of the units sold on Amazon are missing that piece, and that the company is aware of the issue. Granted, this is a product in which the market of non-commercial options is less than impressive across the board. Many don't work well by design, as those who have reviewed them have confirmed--and the best often heat only a very targeted space in close proximity to the unit. But this particular model enjoyed top reviews from credible sources. In the end, I think it's one of those things that isn't for everyone; is intended to perform a limited function during a limited period as a quasi-luxury item for those who live in colder climates but want to enjoy their backyards; and, unfortunately, just isn't great. Which is a shame at the price point.

Cover seems sturdy, but I’ve found water inside in the heater’s table after rains, so it’s definitely not waterproof.

This is the 2nd one I have gotten. The other one survived hail and 60mph. winds, except for the top. This one is the deluxe model, and I love it. Thank you!!

Fits well but a bit difficult to take on and off. Not very sturdy and doesn’t inspire much faith. Probably won’t last more than a season. Also not too expensive, so there’s that.
