No Secure Strap Included? does that mean it doesn't have elastic to keep it in place?

It does have elastic on the front and back side, it just doesn't have the security strap/cable that would run under the middle of the car to attach a lock to, and to keep it from blowing away in extreme wind.

There is no secure strap included. My advice? Do NOT buy these covers. I was impressed when I got them, they seemed so tough and wonderfully waterproof. However, within two months of sun exposure, they literally disintegrated. Don't waste your money. I had to throw them away (I bought two) in less than 90 days after I got them.

mine has elastic in front and back. There is clips on each side for a strap to go under the car, that is not included. I just use one bungee hooked into the clips.

This cover is very strong and well worth the money. I wasted over a $120 on a different brand waterproof cover that fell apart after a year. The elastic is very good. You don't have to crawl under the car to place a strap underneath, just tie a small wooden piece to the string and toss it under the car to the other side.

I bought this cover about 1 year ago. It lasted about 1yr then started ripping like paper. It is definately worth the money, cause it is waterproof. I will probably order a new one since the price is right. Just plan on spending 30.00 per year for good coverage on the car. To answer your question, it comes with the elastic in the cover, just not the strap that connects the middle together under the car.

It has elastic that grips the front and back of the car. The car cover is heavy and stays on very well in windy or storming weather. The strap would go underneath the center of the car, across from door to door. In my opinion, it would be hard to connect because you would have to crawl under the car.

Just received it - it's Velcro. No problems; definitely not a rubber strap.

Mine came with 2 elastic straps to hold it together plus a bag to keep it in.

Mine did NOT have a strap, nor did it have the grommet for attaching a strap. UPDATE MAY 2014: It has now been six months and I have not had any of the problems that others are reporting. A few days ago the plastic phone holder part came apart from the case, but Gorilla Glue has that back to normal use. I love this thing. I do wish it was a little better at standing my phone up-right but that is probably because I have A LOT of stuff in the wallet portion. I will buy another one when the one I have does finally give out.

No, there is no elastic strap. The cover simply folds back so that you can hold it much like a paper back book.

It's an elastic strap .... watch out, dont keep is sports bag with velcro or purse with velcro ... the 'hooks' part of the velcro makes the fibers on strap fray but other then that, i've never had it slip open (ever)

No it doesn't come with one. However, it does have an opening for standard strap usuage.

The strap was not elastic, but I would not pull abruptly for that reason. Keep it short until the child gets used to it.

Yes...there's an elastic strap which secures in back with Velcro...surprisingly comfortable

Yes there is a place for strap and actually came with one. My husband doesn't use it though. Not sure he kept it!

Hello again Sandra. My caregiver just recalled it has an elastic band and not velcro. Sorry for the misinformation.

No it has elastic and it does fit tight. If trailering we do strap down and on the dingy dock we strap it down.

Short answer no.. No buckles no elastic. You provide your own method of attachment to suit your needs on both ends. The only metal is the ratchet type device that allows you to adjust the overall length. With all this said I really like mine and it is very comfortable.

Mine only had a 20" strap. I have a 34" waist - and it take a lot of stretching. The elastic is quite gentle though.

Nope ... just a very strong velcro strap. What I do is hold the weight against my body which then gives me the leverage to obtain a tight fit with no or little slippage.

It does have an elastic strap on the back. Don't know if it is long enough or would stretch enough to fit over a large chair--maybe a small task chair.

Mine does not have straps. It is tucked into the leather frame and secured underneath with velcro
