Coverstore

Origin and philosophy

Coverstore is the American brand that specialises in made-to-measure covers for garden furniture, grills, kamados, outdoor TVs, fire pits and almost anything that lives outside and needs shelter from rain, sun and salt. It is a family-owned business founded in 2009 in the United States, with a clear philosophy: rather than stock a handful of generic sizes and leave you to improvise, it offers four tiers of fabric quality and the option of a fully custom-fit cover built from the dimensions you submit on its website.

In more than fifteen years it has become a reference in the English-speaking outdoor segment —thousands of TrustPilot reviews and a Net Promoter Score comfortably above 60— sustaining a model that is unusual for this category: warranties of up to ten years on the fabric itself, not on the stitching or the hardware.

What sets Coverstore apart

The range is built around four fabric tiers: Classic (budget polyester), Elite (reinforced polyester), Ultima Ripstop (600-denier polyester with a ripstop weave, the best-seller) and Prestige (the premium, marine-grade version). The Ultima tier is what put the brand on the map: 600 denier is a high thread density, and ripstop is a weave that stops small tears before they turn into big ones —the same idea used in military parachutes, scaled to outdoor furniture.

Against a hypermarket generic, Coverstore plays three cards: sewn reinforcements at the corners (where cheap covers always rip first), tie-down straps with adjustable buckles so the cover won't fly off in strong wind, and, on the premium models, bottom grommets to drain water and avoid sagging pools. The warranty covers wear from use, not accidents.

Our take

At mikamado we added Coverstore to the catalogue for one concrete reason: it fills the gap left by unusual or non-standard items. Judging by the specs, the user community and our own experience looking after the cover on our Big Green Egg Large, the Ultima Ripstop fabric is built to withstand exactly what punishes a cover on the Mediterranean coast: vertical July sun, salty Levante wind and October storms. The corner reinforcements and buckles are, on paper and in the user verdict, what separates it from a seasonal cover.

The biggest catch for Spain is logistics: Coverstore ships from the US, with lead times of two to three weeks and possible import duties above a certain value. That's why, for a standard round kamado, it's worth first comparing the equivalent covers from Big Green Egg or Kamado Joe, distributed across Europe through their dealer networks.

Who it's for

We recommend Coverstore for anyone with an atypical outdoor item —an oval fire pit, a bespoke teak sofa set, a kamado built into a masonry island— that generic covers simply won't fit. For a standard round kamado (BGE Large, Classic III), the official cover from the kamado brand itself is easier to buy and usually fits better. Coverstore shines in the custom lane.
