Abstract:
A semi-fitted outdoor furniture cover with interior topline flange and weighted hems. The flange is intended to lay between the cushion(s) and frame of the furniture item while the cover is deployed. The weight of the cushion(s) hold(s) the flange in position against the frame, allowing the flange to act as an internal anchor for the furniture cover. With the cover anchored in this manner, the user can draw aside only the front portion of the cover, use the furniture item while not needing to completely remove the rest of the cover, and easily return the front portion of the cover to its fully deployed position. While fully deployed, the weighted hems keep the cover in place and eliminate the need for other more complicated fittings. The result is continuous protection of the furniture item and ultimate ease-of use. The cover is made of weather-resistant fabric and has pleated corners with reinforced tabs.
