DOES IT CRACK IN WINTER WEATHER?

This is one of the best grill covers I've ever had. The outside held up excellent over the last 10 months or so that I've had it in Rhode Island. The inside of the cover has some type of plastic lining that did develop a few cracks, but nothing like some covers that barely lasted this long.

We had it through one of the worst winters in Wisconsin history 2013-2014 outside the entire time... NO problems whatsoever!! I was hesitatant to leave it outside but my husband said don't worry about it. So.. I didn't. It still to this day ... May 13, 2014, covers our BBQ grill outside in Wisconsin weather without any problems...I'm amazed frankly!

It didn't crack all winter long, but I would like to see how it does through the hot summer.

So far so good, this was the only size I could find for my grill, cover is a little too big, so I threw a bungee around it to keep the bottom tight on my grill, and there is still no cracking in the cover at all, even around the bungeed area

Nope. It's not a crummy plastic type; kind of a fabric with coating on both sides. It does get dirty of course, but cleans up well.

After an abnormally cold winter in Ct. With record breaking snow, the answer is no! This is heavy gauge canvas-type material with no plastic! Highly recommend.

I live in Northern Ontario. I've had two bad winters with this top and there doesn't seem to be a problem at all with the snow. I do remove the snow before I drive it and on occassion, when it's sitting in the driveway. The top still looks brand new and it is still very tight.

It fits securely to the ground. I don't know if it becomes brittle in extreme cold but my gas mower is covered in 100º+ full sun and very strong thunderstorms with absolutely no weather concerns . I was initially skeptical because price was very reasonable so even if I replaced it every couple years it is so worth it. I do not believe I will have to though

I have had no issues with snow or ice. The mesh is very stout screening. This has worked great for me and I've had over a foot of snow with ice and no problems

I leave mine out year round in central Illinois. I've had it for over two years, and the frame finally cracked today while scooping with the weather in the 20's. I've used it many times in the cold weather, though, so I think this was likely due to a combination of its age and the cold. I feel like I got my money's worth out of it, so I am ordering another one.

Mine seems to be standing up just fine and it remained outdoors all winter. Of course our winters are pretty mild compared to up north but I don't see any wear all the same.

I bought this item this past Spring. I do not think it would crack in winter but I would not cut the back off. It would lose the support it needs to be used as a step. If the top step were level with the floor and resting on the floor and only the bottom step used then cutting the back off might work.

I've used it through 2 winters and at times it was buried under snow. No problems.

Mine cracked over this past winter in NJ, right in the center. I noticed that there hadn't been much water in it and when I was washing it this weekend, I saw the big crack. You're better off bringing it in over the winter.

Hi..unfortunately I just purchased this and have not had our winter as of yet. I would not feel comfortable assuming how it will do.

Yes it works well in the winter, the canopy is very sturdy and held up with the weight of snow, it didn't seem to have any problems.

I have not had any issues at all and they have sat outside since I installed them last spring. One is even cracked from me hitting it with a log and it works fine even in rain and snow.

Hello, I find this cover to be of a great quality...it has been under intense sun, snow and wind. At the moment is not cracks or holes

It has a nylon bottom and won't slide very well on the snow. Icy hill, maybe but it won't be very stable. Also it doesn't have cold crack additive in the PVC and could bust if it gets too cold.

Yes. I have left it outside since September, throughout the entire winter. It shows no impact from the weather. This is a great product.
