Hey, Podsters:

I had a cover for our 178 for about two years or so, and then the sun turned it to junk.  It just kept ripping and coming apart as I would pull it on or off.  We get high sun and high temps here in the high desert.  90--100 deg. F. all summer.  Is there one brand or another that holds up to heat and UV better than the others.

This is the unit I did use:

Am I just out of luck and have to buy one every few years?

Thanks.

Scott

I'm on my second cover in 5 years here in middle TN.  The cover they make fits and has been somewhat useful.  However they have a useful lifespan.

That cover has a 3 year warranty.  They should have replaced it or at least prorated it and given you a discount.
