Is the cover UV protected? I had a similar unit on which the cover completely deteriorated after less than 1 year.

I am not sure, but it lasted a couple of years. It is now falling to pieces, and we barely have it propped up. It is not sturdy, and there is not a good way to anchor it to the ground, so it has blown away twice. I definitely advise against buying this piece of junk. We are hoping to get it through March so we can throw it away. I recommend any of the Flowerhouse products. They last for years.

Mine perfectly survived TX summer and a few snowfalls and I will put the cover back on in a month as it's in perfect shape. I really like this greenhouse

I can't pull out the paperwork on it right now (in a box in the shed in the "back forty") but I do believe it said that it was. We only had it up for a few weeks so there has been no deterioration yet.

The cover of mine is UV protected. After one year of full sun it is as good as the day I purchased it last Spring.

I've had mine over a year and is in great shape still. Not sure about the protection aspects. I'm in California if that helps. Also company will answer questions you have they're quick to respond with you. I emailed them for answers I needed

I agree with the others that you may get a glimpse of it; it's inside the appliance. I don't believe it's exposing me to any UV light. It's the light on the front control panel that is BRIGHT (and why I covered it with black tape/paper so I can sleep)

That is a question the manufacturer would have to answer. We have owned ours for 3 years and remain very satisfied. It is outside, but under cover, so I am unable to comment about how it weathers.

No it's not a uv light. It had the appearance of a uv light because of the colored plastic cover only.

Yes it has UV protection! It blocks out more sun than it looks like it would! I absolutely love this cover!! Don't know the weight but it's not really heavy! We covered our percula with it! Love it!

It's water-resistant however, the impact of sun and moisture caused my cover to last just 12 months. The fabric became brittle and when removed and folded so the table could be used is split and tore and had to be replaced

So far mine is great. Plastics all look good and it's in direct sunlight all day everyday. Not sure if they are actually UV protected though, might be a question or Spalding directly

I had the cover for two years and it faded a little bit as it is in direct sunlight. The grill is well protected and still looks like new. My first cover lasted 8 years and replaced it because it was ripping at seams.

Yes, it is a sealed unit can be covered with insultion. I just had mine installed and they put the insulation around it and the fan is working great. Hope this helps.

I live in the central valley of Ca. During the summer the sun will blacken exposed 2x4s. The point being that those UV rays eventually win. We have a horse trailer with a fiberglass roof and I bought one of these four years ago and one year ago. Eventually the sun wins, I will buy another of these covers in a year or two. In other words, I am happy with it, but the sun will win.

Well, i bought the cover that was suggested on the Amazon site... works well, have had it since May 2013.. faded in sun, but not cracked or leaking. I was happy with it for the price.

Depends how old. I was able to use the same cover from my 10 year old unit.

It is reasonably weather-proof. I kept it outside for 10 months, though there isn't much rain here. I lubricated the edges where the "screen" meets the plastic trim with a grease (just any grease that you have laying around). Don't smear the whole screen, just cover the seam. Make sure your put the panel on a few degrees slope so water won't be pooling on it.

I think it's more a UV issue, but we bring our furniture to a storage shed during the winter so it's not in direct contact with the elements. We also use furniture covers during the summer to help with the UV. I couldn't be happier with my strathwood sofa and two chairs.

I'm not 100% sure but I believe there will be UV issues over a period of time. You may want to contact the manufacturer on this item.

I used mine all summer never had any problems TV works great kept the dust and rain and the heat off of it. But I have a pegola where the TV is mounted and I mounted it in the corner so it's more shaded too.But love the cover
