Yimomoyi Waterproof Barbecue Cover (Oxford 420D) for Large Gas Grills – 77x70x110cm

Overview: a practical waterproof cover for keeping a gas BBQ clean

If your outdoor gas grill spends months exposed to rain, sun and dust, a proper barbecue cover is one of those buys you only regret when you don’t have it. The Yimomoyi Waterproof Barbecue Cover is built around that idea: an Oxford 420D outer layer with waterproof and UV-resistant inner processing, plus straps and a draw cord to help it stay in place.

On paper, it’s aimed at day-to-day protection across changing weather (wind, storms, intense sun, dust and even snow), rather than looking like a fancy cover you’ll baby. It can also help your BBQ stay looking “new” for longer, which is often the real win with covers—even if you’re not storing it away.

Key features that matter in real UK weather

Where this cover is fairly clearly designed to work is the combination of fabric + securing system.

• The cover uses Oxford 420D fabric, with the inside processed with waterproof and UV-resistant coatings.
• It’s described as waterproof, UV-resistant and tear-resistant, which is the kind of wording you want when you’re dealing with wind-driven rain or covers that flap about.
• To reduce the “it’s lifting off in the breeze” problem, there are adhesive straps on two sides. There’s also an incorporated draw cord at the bottom for a closer fit.

One small but important note from the manufacturer: let the BBQ cool down before covering it. That’s sensible, and it’s also the sort of step people skip when they’re rushing to put the tools away.

Getting the size right (77x70x110cm and why it’s your first check)

This listing includes a Large size that measures 77x70x110cm. The brand also mentions other sizes (145x61x117cm, 132x66x109cm, and 117x66x117cm / 117x66x117cm as shown), but the key point for you is matching your grill’s dimensions rather than guessing.

It’s not perfect to rely purely on “fits most” language, because barbecues vary a lot in shape—especially if you have side shelves, handles that sit higher, or accessories. The safest approach is to measure your barbecue (width/depth/height) and compare against the cover dimensions before ordering.

It’s a good fit if you want outdoor protection for a large gas BBQ and you’re happy to take a minute to confirm fit first. It may not suit you if your BBQ is unusually tall or bulky, or if you need a highly custom fit.

What you’ll notice day to day

When it works well, you’ll see the benefits quickly: less dampness settling on the grill, less dust build-up, and less fading or weathering from UV exposure.

A realistic use case: you finish cooking, let the BBQ cool, then pull the cover over the grill. You secure it using the straps on two sides, then tighten the bottom draw cord so it sits closer to the body. In a typical British summer shower or a windy evening, the cover is meant to stay put instead of acting like a sail.

Also, the cover is described as easy to clean with water and foldable, and it comes with a storage bag. That’s useful if you want to take it off for maintenance or when the BBQ is in regular use.

Pros and limitations to consider before buying

Pros

It ticks several boxes that usually matter with barbecue covers: waterproofing, UV resistance, tear resistance, and a wind-conscious securing approach (straps plus bottom draw cord). It also sounds practical to live with thanks to wash-with-water cleaning and a foldable design.

What might fall short

It may not be a great match if you’re after a perfect, tailored fit—covers like this are designed to fit a range of grills, so the closer your barbecue’s shape is to the stated dimensions, the better. Also, because the product relies on staying secured in wind, if your BBQ sits in an exceptionally exposed spot, you may still want to double-check tension and positioning after rough weather.

Care & maintenance: simple habits that extend cover life

To get the most out of a fabric cover, basic routine helps. Given the waterproof and UV-resistant coatings mentioned, the safest habits are: rinse with water when needed, allow it to dry fully before storing, and always make sure the BBQ is cool before you cover it.

If you leave moisture under the cover, you can end up with unpleasant dampness—so even though the cover is waterproof, good airflow when it’s off the BBQ is still a smart move.

FAQ

Is it really waterproof?

It’s described as waterproof, with waterproof coatings processed on the inside. That suggests it’s intended to handle rain and wet weather, but always remember no cover is invincible in extreme conditions.

Will it handle strong sun?

The inner processing is described as UV-resistant, which is meant to help protect against intense sunlight and UV impact over time.

How is it kept in place in windy weather?

The cover includes adhesive straps on two sides and a draw cord at the bottom to help it stay secure.

Can you clean it easily?

Yes—according to the description, it can be cleaned easily with water and folded away when not in use. The pack includes a storage bag.

Should I cover the BBQ immediately after cooking?

No. The manufacturer specifically notes that you should let the BBQ cool before covering it.

Final verdict

Is it worth it?

Choose the Yimomoyi Waterproof Barbecue Cover for a large gas grill if you want a fairly robust, weather-minded cover with waterproofing, UV protection, tear resistance, and a securing system designed for wind (straps plus bottom draw cord). For most normal outdoor use—rainy weekends, sunny spells, and dusty storage—it makes practical sense.

Skip it (or at least pause) if your grill’s shape and height don’t line up well with 77x70x110cm, or if you’re expecting a totally custom, perfectly tailored fit without measuring. As long as you confirm dimensions and follow the cool-before-cover approach, it’s the kind of straightforward protection that helps a BBQ look better for longer.
