Product Information

Full details

The Bosmere Protector 5000 Kettle Barbecue Grill Cover is ideal for homeowners looking to extend the lifespan of their charcoal or gas kettle grills by providing robust, year-round defense against harsh weather. Its primary benefit is the heavy-duty, weather-resistant polyester construction that guards against rain, frost, and UV rays, though users should note that the 71cm x 68cm dimensions are specifically tailored for standard kettle-style grills, so measuring your unit before purchase is essential for an optimal fit.

FAQs

Can I put this cover on while the grill is hot?

No. You should always wait until the barbecue has completely cooled down to prevent heat damage to the polyester fabric.

Is this cover machine washable?

It is not recommended to machine wash the cover. The wipe-clean surface is designed to be easily maintained with a damp cloth by hand.

How do I know if this fits my grill?

Measure the total diameter and height of your kettle grill. If your dimensions are 71cm x 68cm or slightly smaller, this cover will provide an appropriate fit.

Will the material crack in winter?

The Protector 5000 is made from high-quality polyester designed to remain flexible even in colder temperatures, unlike cheaper plastic alternatives that may crack.

Does it come with a warranty?

Yes, the product is supported by a 5-year guarantee provided by Bosmere.

Can this cover be used for square or rectangular grills?

No, the design is specifically shaped for round kettle-style grills to ensure a snug, wind-resistant fit.

Troubleshooting

Cover keeps blowing off in high winds

Ensure the cord is pulled as tight as possible and the lock is firmly engaged against the fabric. You can also tuck excess fabric underneath the grill legs.

Water pooling on top of the cover

Check that the cover is centered correctly. If water pools, create a small 'peak' in the center of the grill (e.g., using a small, heat-safe object) to encourage runoff.

Surface appears dirty or dull

Simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth; the material is designed to release dirt easily without the need for intense scrubbing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent year-round weather resistance
  • UV-stabilised material prevents sun damage and fading
  • Secure fastening system keeps cover in place during storms
  • Durable brass eyelets prevent tearing at attachment points
  • Very easy to clean and maintain

Cons

  • Specific 71cm x 68cm sizing may not fit oversized or custom grills
  • Not intended for use while the grill is still hot
  • Color options may be limited to standard aesthetic choices

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions:

  1. Ensure your grill has completely cooled down before applying the cover.
  2. Gently drape the cover over the top of the kettle grill, ensuring the handle and lid are centered.
  3. Pull the bottom drawstring until the cover is snug against the base of the grill.
  4. Slide the lock mechanism up until it is tight against the fabric to prevent loosening.

Compatibility:

This cover is designed for kettle-style barbecues measuring 71cm in height and 68cm in diameter. Always measure your grill's widest point (including side tables if applicable) to ensure it fits within these dimensions.

Care Instructions:

Keep the cover clean by wiping it down with a soft, damp cloth and mild soapy water if necessary. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scrub brushes, as these can compromise the UV-stabilising treatment. Allow the cover to air dry completely if it has been exposed to heavy rain before storing it for long periods to prevent mildew buildup.
