we live in Fl, so we don’t need those heavy ugly outdoor furniture covers, but we don’t like to keep our exposed wicker lounges & cushions that are exposed to the rains. So these covers are perfect! They protect the lounge and cushions from weather, and yet you can still see through them. That is important for us. They are easy to take off and put on. They will not survive long in harsh weather. But they may last several seasons in warm weather climates.
