Zettum 147cm BBQ Cover 7130 – heavy-duty waterproof PU cover for select Weber Genesis & other gas grills

If you leave a gas barbecue outside, a cover can make the difference between “still usable” and “why is it so grim?”. The Zettum BBQ Cover 147 CM (size 147 L x 63 W x 113 H cm) is designed to protect grills from rain, dust and sun exposure, with a waterproof PU-coated fabric and tie-down features to help it stay put.

That said, it’s not a one-size-fits-all miracle. On paper, it fits specific Weber Genesis models and other grills within a length/depth window, and it’s not meant for some Genesis variants listed by the brand. If you’re buying without measuring first, you may find it sits too loosely or doesn’t line up well.

The essentials

This is a heavy-duty barbecue cover made with Oxford 600D fabric and a PU (polyurethane) coating. The PU approach is meant to be more breathable and softer than PVC, and the cover is described as thinner than some alternatives while still being scratch-resistant and easier to carry.

It’s also built with a double-stitch technique intended to reduce the risk of leaks at the edges. For day-to-day UK weather, that matters: covers spend a lot of time dealing with damp air, drips and condensation.

Key features for everyday protection

What stands out in this design is the combination of weather resistance and practical securing.

• Waterproofing and seam care: the PU-coated Oxford 600D fabric and double stitching are aimed at keeping moisture out.
• Wind resistance: adjustable “magic” straps on both sides plus a Velcro fastening are used to tighten the fit and reduce the chance of the cover flapping.
• UV resistance: the manufacturer claims the material can withstand more than three years of UV ageing, based on their UV test comparisons.

A small but useful detail is the quick-dry top fabric layer. In real-world terms, that can make it easier to rinse off dirt after windy or muddy spells rather than storing a cover that stays wet for ages.

What to know before you buy

The biggest decision factor here is fit.

The cover is stated to be compatible with certain Weber Genesis 300 series models including Genesis E-330, E-310, S-310, S-330, S-335 and S-340. It also mentions compatibility with other multi-burner gas barbecues (such as Char-Broil 4–5–6 burners, Dyna-Glo 3 burners, Nexgrill 4 burners and more).

However, the brand is quite specific about measurements: you’re advised to keep your barbecue length and depth within 146 CM x 62 CM. That’s the kind of detail that often gets overlooked, so it’s worth measuring the actual grill footprint rather than relying on model names.

There’s also a clear limitation: it’s noted as not for Genesis 325 Model, Genesis E-325s, or Genesis 400 Series. If your grill is one of those, it’s a red flag to skip.

Usage tips for getting the most from it

If you buy a cover like this, the “how” is almost as important as the “what”. After cooking, allow the grill to cool before covering. The guidance here is to wait 10–15 minutes for the barbecue to cool before putting the cover on.

A practical scenario: imagine you’ve finished a midweek roast and it starts raining the next hour. You pop the cover on after it’s cooled, the straps help keep it tight during gusts, and the waterproof fabric is intended to block the worst of the weather while you wait for the next session.

For cleaning, the instructions suggest rinsing with water to remove dirt quickly, then drying carefully (including letting it air dry in sunlight for the next use). That routine should help keep it from becoming permanently stained or smelly.

Who it suits (and who should avoid it)

It’s a good fit if you want a waterproof, UV-resistant BBQ cover for a gas barbecue that matches the stated size window, and you care about wind stability as much as rain protection.

It might not suit you if your grill falls into one of the listed incompatible Weber Genesis models, or if your barbecue length/depth is outside the 146 CM x 62 CM guideline. In those cases, you could end up with a cover that doesn’t sit right, leaving gaps where water and debris can get in.

It also feels more like a sensible, practical cover for regular outdoor use than something you buy to “forget about forever”. Even with UV claims, covers are still a consumable item and will age—just likely more slowly than cheaper alternatives.

Final verdict

Should you buy it?

Buy it if your grill model is among those listed, your barbecue length and depth match the recommended window, and you want a heavy-duty PU cover with wind straps, plus an easier-to-clean, quick-dry top layer.

Skip it if your barbecue is one of the excluded Genesis models or if you’re not confident on the measurements. For anyone who prioritises a precise fit, the measuring step matters here more than with some looser covers.
