Prestige patio table covers are available in various shapes and sizes, making it easy to find what you need. You can also find covers with holes for umbrellas to keep your table umbrella in place while the cover is on. One downfall of table set covers is that they can sag in the middle, resulting in water pooling. An easy way to combat this is to place an inflatable air bag beneath the cover to force water to flow off. However, this is another reason the Prestige collection is perfect for table/chair set covers. The 900-denier material is thicker and more structured than other covers. This makes it less likely to sag in the middle, especially when pulled tight by the buckle straps and drawcord. Can't find the right size? Shop Custom Table Covers and Custom Table/Chair Covers to get a perfect fit for any size table.


Patio Furniture Cover Frequently Asked Questions


What are patio furniture covers made of?

Outdoor furniture covers are typically made from vinyl or polyester. In general, polyester covers are more durable and long-lasting. However, not all polyester covers are created equal. If you want the strongest material, look for a polyester cover with a high fabric denier. Think of material denier in a similar way to the thread count of sheets. The higher the denier, the more durable the cover. Our most durable material is 900-denier, available in our Prestige collection.


Vinyl covers are more affordable but less durable. When shopping for a vinyl patio furniture cover, look for one made from commercial-grade vinyl to ensure you are getting the best bang for your buck without compromising protection capabilities.


How to choose the right patio furniture cover?

To choose the right outdoor furniture cover, think about where you live and how you value your outdoor furniture. The more intense weather conditions you face, the more durable (and likely more expensive) cover you should purchase. Even if you live in a mild climate but have a brand-new $1,000 outdoor sofa, you'll want to opt for the best cover to keep your expensive furniture in excellent condition.

For table/chair set covers, push your chairs into the table and add a air bag to the middle of the table to prevent water from pooling in the center. Check out our quick guide for more tips on how to prevent pooling water.
