Title: Cover for the Pro
Post by: Canadian John on March 02, 2018, 03:43:36 PM
 
Anyone wanting a good fitting well made cover have a look at; Montana Grilling Gear. The "PTC-LH62", 62" medium.  Dimensions: 62" x 44" x 21 - 28"* ..Almost a perfect fit..Has about 1 1/2" ground clearance..Priced @ $60 in Canada..I got it At Lowes.
         
 *Yes, 21 -28". It is 28" wide so it fits over the handle, and with the adjustable end straps, narrows down.

No offense meant here, Canadian John, but I don't use a cover.  The primary reason is a day like today.  Parts of the day we have had 50+ mph wind gusts and parts of the day had sustainable 30+ mph winds.  With the cover, I think the wind would have lifted up underneath it and flip my grill over.  Without it, the grill is heavy enough to stay its ground and handle the winds (well, the last time I looked it was still standing) ;D

Why do you think you need a cover for a stainless steel grill?

 I am in a bit of a protected area, wind wise. That all but eliminates the air lift problem.

 Why cover you ask? I like to keep my pits clean by keeping the nasties off them..I am not concerned with rusting stainless or the ceramic on the eggs being weather damaged..If the pit is dirty I clean it. That goes for most of my things..

Memphis makes a cover for the built-in Pro. That is all I use. Easy on and easy off. No danger of the wind getting under it like Lew says. They also sell one like this for the Elite of course. I use it to help keep rain out when the wind is blowing.

Thanks Canadian John for the idea.  I bought the Memphis cover and was unhappy with the feel and quality, not to mention the $100 price tag.  I have now ordered this cover.
