Top 5 Custom Patio Furniture Covers Myths

Finding the perfect size patio furniture cover can seem challenging, especially if you have large or uniquely shaped furniture. Finding reliable outdoor protection for island grills and L-shaped sectionals seems impossible. Custom patio furniture covers allow you to enter the dimensions of almost any furniture, grill, TV, and more, so you can get a perfect fitting cover that will provide year-round protection from the elements.


Some questions you may be wondering are "Is it difficult to order?", "How long does it take to receive?" and, of course, "Is it difficult to measure?". In this blog, we will cover these questions plus more common myths associated with custom patio furniture covers to help you find the perfect fitting cover without the stress.

Unlike other online retailers, Coverstore has created a seamless shopping experience for both standard and custom cover customers. We've eliminated the need for quotes or unneeded back and forth with sales representatives. Enter the required dimensions, select your material collection, and get live pricing. If you need to make any adjustments before you order, simply add your new dimensions, and your new order total will be reflected instantly. If you have any questions along the way, we have a knowledgeable in-house customer care team that is always ready to assist.


Myth #2: It's Too Complicated to Measure

Coverstore's streamlined ordering process makes finding a perfect fitting outdoor furniture cover easier than ever.

"Fantastic custom fit, easy process and looks great!"
John M., Custom Outdoor Chair Cover


"Love the easy measuring guidelines. Cover fits great. Easy to put on and works great. Cushions totally dry after Midwest rain storms."
Barb K., Custom L-Shape Sectional Cover


"We have a deeper Blaze grill, so we needed a cover with more depth than standard sizes. The custom is more expensive, but fits perfectly and came quickly. We've only had it for a week, but it looks like it should last."
Mike R., Custom Cart Grill Cover


Myth #4: Wait Times are Too Long

When considering custom outdoor furniture covers, you probably assume they are accompanied by long lead times. Although that might hold true for other retailers, we pride ourselves on being able to bring our customers high-quality custom covers as fast as possible. When a custom order is placed, it takes about two weeks or less for the cover to be expertly made to the measurements supplied and be on its way to providing year-round protection.


Myth #5: There are No Additional Benefits

An obvious benefit to getting a custom cover made is the convenience. Especially for those who have unique furniture or grills, custom allows for an easy way to find reliable protection. In addition to providing any item in your backyard with a clean and tailored fit, a custom outdoor cover can add an extra level of protection to ensure your investment is clean and ready to use. A cover that is too large is prone to coming off during heavy winds and can cause water to pool in the pockets of access fabric. If the puddles of water are left for an extended period, mold and mildew can form.


Now that you have the facts on custom outdoor furniture covers, you can shop confidently!
