Good value for the price.
The cover is nice enough. Zipper is a little small and is prone to jamming.Overall a good value.

Does the job ...
January 2015 update:As suspected, this cover didn't last very long. The vinyl became more brittle with time (sunlight exposure) and the top corners cracked where the cover draped over the edge of the heater. The cover was also difficult to put on and/or remove, given that the zipper only went part way up. I recently removed the cover in wintertime, and it cracked so badly that I had to discard it. I've purchased a different cover (Hiland brand) which has a full-length zipper, and the plastic / vinyl feels more pliable and durable ... I'll write a separate review on it once I've had a chance to try it out a bit.****I bought this cover to keep my new flame heater protected from the elements when not in use, and also to keep leaves and debris from settling into the concave top of the heater (a poor design feature that's going to be included in a separate review of the heater itself).A few comments on this cover that's not apparent from the product description:1) although it's described as 'heavy duty' the vinyl cover feels lightweight compared to my vinyl bbq cover. Sewn seams seem rather flimsy.2) the zipper only goes half-way from the base up the side of the cover.3) there were four small thread-together poles provided, but no instructions on where these were to be installed. After some searching, I found a pouch adjacent to the zipper. The poles provide some rigidity alongside the zipper to make it easier to open / close.4) because the top of the heater is nearly 8 ft high and the zipper only goes part way up the cover, you have to lift the cover up to the top of the heater and then slide it on and down. I found the pole that's installed by the zipper to be helpful in getting the cover lifted up and into position.Overall, it's not particularly pretty, but it will do the job. I expect it will last just a few years before the weathering causes the vinyl to crack ... but I don't have enough user history yet to verify this.

Good cover but this DOES NOT fit the 38 inch round reflector
Decent cover. We will see how it holds up over the winter. It did arrive quicker than estimated, though the estimate was for shipping to take a month. The cover is easy to install with a zipper the length of the cover and almost like a zip tie like closure at the bottom to keep it secure. I did deduct one star because this is not even come close to fitting the large 38 inch FireSense round reflector. We upgraded the reflector on our patio heater. The only issue I could not find a cover to fit the much larger reflector. The item description and the manufacturer, FireSense, says this fits the 38 inch reflector. It simply does not. If you have smaller deflector (the round metal piece that sits atop the heater) then this will work fine.I was going to return this item. However, after searching everywhere, I can't seem to find a heater cover that fits the larger reflector. I had to uninstall the top reflector and then put this cover on. I'll update my review after the winter to see how the cover holds up.

Vinyl covers do not last
Bought December 2019. The material on top was severely sun damaged (cracked and flaking) when I removed it in November 2022. Giving it three starts because it is cheap, but would suggest a non-vinyl cover (which I just ordered)

Expect to replace every 2-3 years
They do a good job of protecting the heater, but the sun will do a number on these making them brittle and crack after a couple of years. Also they catch a lot of wind and make it more likely your heater will blow over in a brisk breeze.

Fits well
The quality of the material is adequate, I foresee a relatively short life span though if continually left exposed to the elements, think typical BBQ cover. Time will tell. Given the height of the heater, the cover is somewhat difficult to manage. I need a short ladder to put it on / Take it off. Leaning it over to install takes more than one person to control. However, I believe the issues I've pointed out are worth the protection provided by using it in the long run.

It was good while it lasted

Well made cover.
This is an effective outdoor cover for the heater - the only problem is that the heater is so tall, (about 7 feet tall) that the cover is a challenge to slip over the top of the heater.
