Good for storage BAD FOR DRYNESS!
I have purchased 2 of these bags as well as umbrella covers and a grill cover by Veranda. The umbrella cover and grill cover are excellent but unfortunately I would have to say this bag is a terrible disappointment.
The material is just as good as the other covers Veranda makes but basically there is a design flaw. I placed my cushions in this bag before it rained. The next day my cushions were soaked and the water was puddled in the interior bottom of the bag! THE PROBLEM IS THE ZIPPER. The zipper has no flap over it and all the water had came through the zipper. Because the material is waterproof the water once in the bag stayed in there leaving me with soaked cushions. I suppose that you could turn the bag upside down (handle side down) when full so the zipper isn't exposed to the rain or slip the filled bag under the patio table but I definitely see this as a design flaw that could have been easily rectified with a zipper flap.
I agree with the other reviewers that this bag does hold a lot. I had 6 (20" square 3" thick) chair cushions and 6 (14") toss pillows in it.
I guess I would recommend purchasing this bag if you don't mind storing the cushions in it zipper-side down or under a table/covering. Also this would be great for winter storage of your cushions but if you want to keep your cushions dry outdoors heed my warnings.More detail ...
