Common Questions
Which material should I choose?
If you are trying to choose between the 18oz and 12oz vinyl materials, please choose based on your environment. For regular weather conditions, 12 oz. vinyl is a great material at a slightly less expensive price. If you are going to experience heavy weather conditions such as heavy snow, heavy rain, and lots of wind, then please choose the 18 oz. vinyl material.
What is the most common material?
The 18 ounce vinyl is used to make 90% of the covers ALCO offers. Even though both materials are equally strong and look the same, the majority of customers pick the thicker material.
Are they easy to clean?
Yes. Contrary to other fabric covers that resemble canvas, vinyl is a material that is extremely slick and is therefore simple to clean. Canvas will capture and hold mold and stains that are difficult to remove, as opposed to the sleek ALCO Vinyl custom furniture covers.
How strong are the covers?
18oz vinyl is a very strong and long-lasting material, in fact, it is the same material that is used on the semi trailers to cover their cargo! The abuse the material can endure on the highway is nothing compared to your backyard so we guarantee it is one of the strongest covers that you can purchase.
My cover will be used indoors. Which material is ideal?
The 600D material is the perfect material for indoors or even outdoors if its mostly in the shade and not in harsh conditions.

Appearance is Important
Your backyard is an extension of your home, so naturally, you want it to be as comfortable as the rest of the house is. Whether you already have a patio set that you love and need to protect it, or you are planning to buy new patio furniture and want to keep it clean and usable for years to come, you need a high-quality cover for the table and chairs that help to create your home’s outdoor entertainment area.
Big Box Store Covers Vs. ALCO Fitted Covers
Big box stores and online retailers sell a one-size-fits-all furniture cover that is most often made from paper-thin material. They generally look terrible once installed because you have to purchase a cover that is too large so that it fits. The problem is that it looks like a tarp has been thrown over your furniture. Another problem with purchasing a cover that is too large is that it results in water pooling on the cover due to all the folds from that extra material. With ALCO, your covers are made exactly to the size you need! It's a better fit and has a better appearance. If you own something that is valuable enough to cover, then cover it right!
Water-Resistant Seams
When buying custom furniture covers for your patio, you want to be sure they will keep your possessions safe, clean, and dry. But did you know that when you sew, the holes the needle creates in the fabric can leave your cover susceptible to leaks? Big box stores don't tell you their covers can leak at these stitching points in heavy rain. So, at the seams, you can get drip marks on your furniture. That is why ALCO offers water-resistant stitching sealing, which covers the stitching on the inside of the cover so rain and moisture can't get in and damage your furniture.
Our Covers Are Water-Resistant
While our covers use high-grade vinyl to stop water pools from penetrating them. While we can prevent water from getting inside, we cannot guarantee moisture from seeping in from under the covers. To completely avoid trapped moisture, it is advisable to choose a cover that has a tight fit and is a few inches shorter than the covered item (for air circulation).
Use Vinyl And Not Fabric Covers
The best protection against water is found in vinyl covers, which ALCO specializes in. Vinyl allows water droplets to bead up and slide down the furniture cover before they have time to soak through due to the slick surface. Polyester blends are also common, but their waterproofing treatment can wear off or end up becoming brittle and then cracking. This allows water that sits on the cover to drip through, so the cover stays wet after it rains. The resulting exposure could mean you spend even more on a new cover or replacing or fixing damaged furniture. Nearly every patio furniture cover on the market claims it is waterproof, but when put to the test, most people find that “waterproof” means it only stands up to a slight drizzle. When the rain really starts to fall, your furniture can get soaked. It is important that you pick a material that can withstand heavy rain. Alco offers only high-grade vinyl that holds up to the elements!
Tie Downs
Standard off-the-shelf covers often are lacking ties to secure the patio furniture cover. But what happens when high or gusty winds accompany the weather? With no means of keeping the cover tied down or tightened at the base the cover could blow away. If you are not home at the time, your cover and your cushions could be blown away and the furniture exposed to the elements. This could result in thousands of dollars in damage and the need to replace the furniture. For this reason, it’s essential to ensure you purchase furniture covers that provide secure ties for each leg on every piece of furniture. All tie-downs and splits are manufactured with robust materials for longevity.

Cover Splits
Some furniture can be hard to wrap a cover around unless it has a slit to allow you some wiggle room for installation. We offer a Velcro or zipper split, depending on your preference.

A Few Of Our Valued Customers
Very impressed with the quality of these, especially for the price. Buying custom fit many covers means they fit like a glove. They look nice, and feel well made. Even after a year these have worked really well for us. Even in a thunderstorm the cushions stay dry. Only during an extended rainy period did the top of the back cushions get wet where they were in contact with the cover which is understandable. Flipping the back cushion down prevents this. Covers themselves have continued to hold up nicely.

I bought two of these chair covers - along with a settee cover and a table cover. All were of the same heavy durable material. We have used these covers only one season in Nevada’s mild weather, however that is enough for me to decide that we made a good call here. We have had our patio furniture for a good six or seven years, and have tried several different tactics to preserve our furniture over the winter months. These covers are by far and away the most convenient and most effective solution, well worth the price.
Dan Price
These are REALLY nice covers. Very heavy fabric and they protect my furniture from the elements here in Florida. I bought chair, ottomans and love seat covers and all fit a great. I have wicker furniture with cushions on the seat and back.
Mark Greg
Fantastic product! In the past month we have been ravaged by pollen and storms. Based on our patio furniture, you would never know! The material is very durable and protects from water. It has the optional drawstring at the bottom so you can pull tight. This helped when we had strong winds. I'd highly recommend!
Tom Delong
I bought four of these for our patio chairs that have absolutely no protection besides these covers. The have exceeded my expectations in keeping the chairs dry even in storms with high wind. They are easy to put on and take off and they fit the chairs nicely. I recommend you actually measure your chairs (don’t “eyeball”) to get exactly the size you need. This morning my husband was removing them after an all night storm so we could have coffee on the patio.... and he said now these are great covers!!! Enough said!!!!
Angela Kisper
We bought this set along with the couch and coffee table covers. They are a very high quality material and well-constructed. We were taking our cushions and pillows off daily and storing in the garage. NOW we just cover them. We have had 2 major wind and rain storms and they never moved or leaked. We don’t even have them attached to the furniture and they never moved. Our cushions are not only dry but clean too!! I would actually give this set a “10”. Well worth it! My husband said good job honey these are awesome.
Martha Grizley
These covers are great. Nice and thick and very good quality. They've really helped protect the furniture on our screened in porch the past two summers and I'm so happy I no longer have to drag all the cushions into the house whenever it might rain. Also used them to protect the furniture during the winter and they worked very well for that too. They are nice and big and sturdy and stay put on the furniture, no matter how much wind there might be. The back wall of our kitchen is floor to ceiling windows looking out onto the screened porch and these look decent enough that we don't mind having to look at them when the furniture needs to be covered (unlike the tarp, etc we used to use at times!) We like them so much we've recommended them to friends and family.
Dennis Riley
Just got delivered and was anxious to see how they looked and fit on our new chairs for around the pool, since we're supposed to get more rain next week. Very happy to say that they look fabulous and fit perfect plus the price was great and seem like excellent quality. So happy to not have to take all the pads off and haul under cover when it starts to rain.
Marcus O'Reilly
These are great. I have had them on for almost 5 months now. They are heavy. They come off and go back on easily. I have them under trees with no issues from staining or anything. I plan to order these when I need replacements for my other patio furniture.
Samantha Tims
This is our 3rd set. We were getting cheaper ones but they kept getting holes after a heavy rain, this brand held up very well in a storm. Would buy again, if ever needed.
