OKPOW waterproof parasol cover 600D

If you want your patio parasol to stay usable season after season, a proper cover is often the difference between a quick wipe down and stubborn dirt. The OKPOW waterproof parasol cover is made from 600D Oxford fabric with a zip closure, giving you a practical way to keep rain and sun exposure under control when your umbrella is not in use. It is designed around common offset umbrella sizes up to 3m, with a fit that follows the shape at the top and bottom, so you can cover it neatly and secure it properly.

The essentials

This is a waterproof garden umbrella cover that focuses on everyday protection, from light showers to heavier damp conditions. The material is Oxford cloth with a PU coating, and it is described as both waterproof and UV resistant, which matters if your parasol lives outside for long stretches. You also get a zip fastening, so the cover can be closed securely rather than relying on open ties.

Once the cover is fitted, the drawstring rope at the bottom is meant to lock it in place, helping prevent the cover from being lifted by wind. That simple extra step is useful for typical British weather swings, especially when you are not constantly checking the patio. The fabric is also described as rip resistant and made to withstand bad weather and sunlight, so it is less likely to wear quickly if you leave it on between outings. 🌧️

There is also a practical element to cleaning and storage. The instructions say you can hose it down with water, then dry it in the sun before the next use. A storage bag is included, which helps you keep the cover together neatly instead of leaving it loose.

Worth noting that it is not suitable for cantilevered umbrellas of any size. If your umbrella has a cantilever arm design, double check compatibility before buying.

Key features

The OKPOW cover is built around a 600D Oxford fabric construction, which is commonly chosen for outdoor use because it tends to handle wear better than lighter sheeting. The description highlights a PU coating for waterproof performance, plus breathability, which can help reduce the feeling of trapped moisture under a sealed cover when conditions change. It is also said that the cover will not shrink, fade or deform, helping it keep its shape over time. ☀️

For fitting, the measurements are given as 190cm high, 30cm wide at the top, and 50cm wide at the bottom. That shape is intended to match the typical profile of an offset patio umbrella, where the base section is broader than the top. The zip closure helps you wrap it up properly, then fasten it so it stays in place.

At the bottom, the drawstring rope adds a windproof layer by tightening the fit around the umbrella, reducing the chance of it being blown away. This is especially helpful when gusts arrive suddenly, or when you are covering the parasol and then stepping away. It is one of those small features that makes the cover feel more secure in day to day use.

If you are comparing options, it can help to think about what you need most, water protection, UV resistance, or simple daily handling. This cover focuses on waterproof and UV resistant protection, while still being described as lightweight and easy to clean. That balance is often what people want when protecting a patio umbrella without turning it into a big chore. 🌿

Who it’s for

It’s a good fit if you have a covered patio with an offset market umbrella and you want a straightforward protective layer that covers the umbrella fully when not in use. It makes sense if you are dealing with typical UK outdoor exposure, rain, damp air, and sun, and you want a cover that helps keep the parasol cleaner between uses.

It may not suit you if your umbrella is cantilevered, as the product description states it is not suitable for cantilevered umbrellas any size. It also might be worth checking your umbrella dimensions against the stated cover measurements and the compatibility range mentioned, so you avoid a too loose or too tight fit. Before you buy, take a moment to confirm the diameter range for your parasol and that it matches an offset market umbrella style.
