Classic Accessories Smoker Grill Cover

I have an old smokey electric and this fits great. This cover is a strong material and is very water resistant. For some reason old smokey recommends to store the smoker with the lid off. When you do that and then put this cover over it and it rains, a nice big pool of water forms in the concave pit the water creates on top, which eventually overwhelms the cover and drips inside. I went to use my smoker after a big rain storm and there was a good bit of stinky water mixed with juices from my last batch of ribs! I am going to start putting my lid on prior to storage, but the lid is flat so its not like the nice dome which you see in the picture, where water just flows off the top. I think the answer is to make sure you anchor it tight so water flows off and does not pool on top, like how you anchor a rain tarp over a tent. This is a serious peice of material and is well worth the money and looks nice and clean out on your deck. I cannot imaging anyone is making anything better. Again, my problem is that my smoker is flat on top and not domed. My problem is not this cover! Maybe i will stuff a beach towell on top of the smoker to create a little dome.
