How many straps are on this cover to prevent the wind from blowing it away? I only have 1 but the directions say there are straps.

One set of straps on a back corner to secure it to a leg of the chair(s). I stacked 4 plastic Adirondack chairs and covered them all at once.

For the chair cover there is only one strap but there is a cord at the bottom that you can pull to tighten around the base.

I think there are 2 to tighten it. It's nice and long and goes down as shown in the picture so it's less likely to blow off because of the length and the weight

There are no straps, just a thumb size piece of velcro at the bottom (where the crank/pedals would be). My cover blew off on a windy day. I ended up wrapping a rubber band over each handlebar to secure the cover to my bike and it's stayed secured going on 2 months.

Well I'm in Texas and we get a lot of wind. I used the anchors that screw in the ground. Same as a pet leash anchor. So far so good!!!!

All covers have a strap(s) to secure the cover. I too have the swivel rocker and the wind does not blow the cover off.

There is elastic around the bottom on the ends to hold it in place. There are no additional straps or pull strings. I have found that my cover blows off on very windy days. There is at least one set of reinforced holes at the bottom on the sides. I took a piece of wire, ran it through one of the holes, under the car, through the hole on that side, back over the top of the car and tied it back down by the first hole. Even with very strong winds, my cover has not blown off since.

The cover has 4 black plastic "eyes" or strap terminals. These can be used to rig either straps of simple rope to hold the cover on in strong - but not storm force winds. The cover is very good quality. It fits on our Avon perfectly and handles winds up to 30+ kts without the straps.

There are two clips that need to be screwed in to a deck, railing, etc. The bottom of the shade has 2 bungee cords that then get attached to those anchors. The bungee allows for some "give"I in the wind. We were quite happy with our shade last summer. We're about to put it up this year now that angle of the sun is hitting our porch in the afternoons.

There are hook attachments that hold the cover down at the corners. I used these to attach each corner to the deck using a 2" or 3" screw and had no problem with wind. If you put each screw through a washer, the screw will not slip through the hole in the loop in the hook attachment.

There is one clip (not velcro) strap on the back left leg of the tall back chair cover....as well as an elastic draw string that tightens around the base of the chair. We haven't had any trouble with the cover moving in wind. Stays put.

One, if you want it to cover two sides you would need to buy two. We use it at our son's swim meets and just move it around as the sun hits different areas throughout the day.

I just ordered another one-so the answer is no. Hope that two will keep the umbrella from falling over in the wind, but we do have alot of wind.

There are some small holes in the cover that allow some water to lay on top and prevents the wind from getting under it. Also, I like to lay a pool net and a pool brush over the top when it gets really windy.

Yes they have straps but they are all one color silver. The unit works very well with the wind.

I just have side bars on mine. They don't even allow you to pass through to hook the tie downs. So I just put ratchet straps across it one in front and one in back. Made 300 mile trip to Myrtle Beach and never came loose that's at speeds of 70 mph. On the way back it was horrible rain and wind almost the entire trip back home and everything was dry. Would really recommend this product.

I'm pretty sure I only received two straps with mine. It's in a different location, so can't verify, but pretty sure it was two.
