Bosmere Protector 6000 | Hammock Garden Furniture Cover | L 220cm D 125cm H 170cm | 100% Waterproof, UV Protected, Heavy Duty 600D | 6 Year Guarantee | D505

Fits really good and better quality

I splashed out on this cover for my wooden garden swing bed, which has base dimensions of 245 cm x 130 cm and is 180 cm high. I knew it was therefore likely to be 10 cm too short, and indeed this is the case, but it only means the bottom 10 cm of each leg is exposed - at least it will allow air to circulate. I'll just have to keep an eye out for neighbours' cats going underneath (hopefully they won't, I've got a sonic repeller too!). My swing seat is an A-frame when the roof shade is removed for winter, so this cover is over-baggy at the top, but at least it is big enough.It came in a compact purpose-made carry bag, with window and handles, which was a nice touch, though a simple wrapper would have sufficed - there's no way I'll ever fold the cover up as tightly again to get it back in the bag!The label says, "NEW and improved 'PVC free', UV stabilised polyester fabric... protected with Bosmere's unique waterproof coating." The material seems really strong - it feels very thick & sturdy and has a black interior surface.There is a pair of large brass eyelets at each corner, about 20 cm apart. Four bungees are provided, which comprise a loop of very thick elastic (the loop is about 20 cm long, ie. circa 40 cm of elastic) which is fixed into a 2.5 cm bobble. You thread the loop in through one eyelet, pass it around the leg of the furniture (more than once if required), feed it back out through the other eyelet and then push the end of the loop over the bobble - it holds brilliantly! I'll have to see if the cover rides up at all in a strong wind, but even if it does it cannot come off altogether unless the bungees 'untoggle' themselves.Time will tell if the cover lasts more than one winter, which is all that my last (much cheaper & flimsier) cover managed before it started disintegrating.

Just 1 problem I found was that the zips don't lock and therefore do not keep the cover closed all the time. they end up unzipping. Pity, but otherwise an excellent product. Hope it last.

Most of the swing seat covers are for the smaller three seat, steel frame swings. I needed one for a larger, wooden A frame swing seat/bed and this seemed to fit the bill, though I was worried it would be too large. Turned out to be almost perfect. Almost, because it is a little too short and does not come entirely to the ground, but leaves about 4 inches of leg exposed - shocking, I know :)It is however, well made, quite thick with good zips and useful eyelets and bungees to fasten it down. I have taken some precautions with the top, where it fits around the square canopy frame, adding some packing to the frames hard corners to try and prevent any wear on the cover, and ensuring there is a good "fall" so that rain water does not puddle on the top.On the whole I am very pleased and hopeful I should get at least 2 or 3 seasons from it.

After spending a lot of time deciding which cover was going to fit satisfactorily I finally settled on this one and I’m glad I did, I can now leave my cushion on the swing during the summer months,, can also just unzip the front and leave the cover on while still being able to use the swing if it looks like it may rain, making it very versatile.

When you pull the zips up I would have liked to be able to leave the flap up may be a couple of tapes to enable me to do this would have been good the fit of the cover is really good as I have a very large hammock so on the whole and up to now I am very happy

An emergency replacement for my existing cover, the inside of which was dripping in condensation. I fitted it yesterday & overnight we have had snow; hoorah!! no condensation inside the new cover this morning & the inside of my hammock has dried out substantially. I'd always had Bosmere covers but my last one wasn't well finished so I changed to a different brand & now wish I hadn't. Only 4* because I would like a roll up front that can be secured with velcro straps; other than that this new cover is properly finished & has performed well on its first outing.

I purchased this cover October 2020. It is now 18 months old and you can see daylight through the seems and letting in rain. This is the 2nd cover I have purchased and had expected this to last as long as the guarantee offered but again I have been disappointed. Can anyone give me the address and telephone number of this company.
