Weber 7555 Premium Cover for Weber Summit 600-Series Gas Grills


Not what it looks like in the picture
My grill stayed in the garage until this cover arrived. When it did arrive, I was very pleased with the overall quality and workmanship from Weber... Nothing to be surprised there... There is only one thing I was not happy with (see below).

Pros:
- The grill cover is very heavy duty, thick material
- Perfect fit for my Summit S-620
- Velcro straps to secure the cover just in case of super high tornado speed winds
- Breathable to prevent those hot humid days from leavings marks on your grill

Cons:
- A little pricey, but a small price to pay to protect a big investment
- Vents in cover are not as shows in picture. The one I received has the vents where the 45-degree slope is, meaning, if rained on, the water will get all on to the side tray & side burner :(

**update ** 1/20/2011**
My cover has survived OK since I bought it. Its been a year+ so far, but, for me, it is stored under a covered patio, so dust is the real...
Great cover
The only thing better than the cover is the grill underneath it. It fits perfectly and has done a great job protecting my Summit S-670. I have seen some complaints from people who bought this grill and did not cover it. To invest in a grill this nice and not protect it is a shame. I highly recommend this product. You will never regret buying one.

**UPDATE**
Almost two years since my initial review and this cover is still holding up well. It has protected my grill from severe storms and even some heavy snowfall. Other than some very light fading, it is holding up incredibly well and is showing no signs of wear or tear.
BEWARE!--Great cover, but super short lifespan...
Initially out of the box this is a great grill cover, well designed with large, easy attaching belt-like velcro straps securing this cover at each end of grill, it will not blow off! Like at the ability to check gas tank without having to remove the cover too. But for the cost this cover will go about 6 months before developing cracks in the vinyl usually around the corners near these velcro belts, the cracking of the material just continues to spread and becomes quite distracting to the cover and the fine grill that it is suppose to be protecting. Weber says these are suppose to "last about 2 years, unless you live in Florida..."--unfortunately no this is certainly not true, as the sun evidently is just as hot (or hotter) here in the midwest as we have not ever gotten much more than 6 months before the cracking begins and accelerates to degrade the product. If Weber would only listen to customer feedback and spec to the actual cover manufacturer to use a better material this cover...
