Has anyone else had problems with the covering flaking off? I bought mine in Aug 2008 and loved it until recently the light soft covering began flaking off.

I also bought mine in 2008 and the covering started flaking off all the areas (except knee rest) a Few years ago. I assumed it was from using too harsh of chemicals to clean it and/or being stored in a hot Texas garage or attic as it didnt get used that much. I replaced the Head cushion (yay for Velcro) and wrapped the arm rest and chest rest with pillow cases and that worked fine. Now that Im doing more chair massage Im buying another one.

I have only had mine for one year. I have had no problems as of yet with it.

we do not use this every day but we use it alot, have no flaking issues , but if we did we would just have it recovered with real leather it is well worth it.

I havent experienced it yet with the clear one I got, and I've had it for 2 months. I have had 2 cases that were each half the price of this case bought at walmart or something and they turned yellowish although it was a longer span of time. So this type of material must discolor. I wonder if there is any way to prevent it "

Ditto. I have had mine for 2 years as well. 2 soaking wet winters and 2 beautiful summers exposed to sunlight and, it is holding up great. Very durable for an inexpensive cover.

I've not experienced the flaking you describe but have heard from other wax-using beard-growers that that can be a problem. So far, so good. I hope this helps.

You will need to check the specs on this to find out what the coating material is. I have had no problem with it flaking off.

I've had my case for almost 6 months and the finish started wearing off almost immediately. Having not read any other comments with this issue, I thought maybe it was just the case I had. My corners are all turning white. Other than that I love the case. But the wearing of the finish is an issue for me.

Mine hasn't flaked but hasn't been on long. Make sure you prep the area well. I scrubbed with dish soap. Then used rubbing alcohol right before I applied it. Prep is everything when it comes to this stuff.

I bought mine in July 2012, loved it and this also happened to mine, I got about a season and a half out of it before this happened. I spent the entire summer last year at the repair shop and they say nothing is wrong with it. Very disappointed!!!

I have the same issue and have not been able to find a cover anywhere. Please let me know if you find one.

It hasn't happened to me personally, but that doesn't rule out the fact that it has happened to others; I guess the bottom line is that natural wear and tear will impact this cover over the long run. Anyway, what length of time are you talking about, and are there other variables that might have led to this color change?I personally do believe that this is a good case for the price, but this is just one man's opinion. I hope I helped you a bit?

Ive covered mine with a cover I bought for like 20 dollars on amazon. Obviously wait till its completely cool before covering it. The Covers helped so far !

There should have been a warranty sheet with this product. I don't know it will be covered because its outside the normal wear and tear policy from what I remember. Its not a manufacturer's defect it was dropped. You could change the light bulb to see if that is the problem. Many times when the item is dropped the bulb is the first thing to go.

I've had mine almost a year and never had that problem. I hope you get it figured out!
