    why do the manufacturers keep using this stuff?
    It must be a lot cheaper!
    I've been looking to replace the plastic on mine and the 'proper' stuff will cost about the same as BM's complete poly............and then I have to 'find' the wood to fix it to at the ends.

      Thanks Thelma. It just surprises me that the manufacturers keep using stuff that seems to have such quick obsolescence - can you buy replacement covers in the same material?

        I think you answered your own question... Of course you can buy replacement covers, hence the reason why they use stuff that needs replacing quickly...

          I'm sure that is the answer, Sarz, I just find it so disappointing - I really hate this throwaway mentality. There must be a manufacturer who could mass produce simple, plastic covers to fit instead.

            and they'd go out of bussiness as they ain't at the high end to make it worthwhile and the cheapest of cheaps undercut them.....

              Is it the summer or the winter that speeds up the disintigration..........was thinking of taking the cover off in winter if not too much hassle.

                Think it'll be a combo of both BM, the UV in summer and the frosts in winter.....
