Has anyone purchased the 29" diameter Cover Store cover for a Large green egg in a nest?  How is the fit?  I was interested in picking one up.  http://www.the-cover-store.com/kamado-full-cover-29-48-inch-ultima/

    I recently purchased this cover.  I don't have side tables and it fits nicely.  The length is great as it covers the legs and casters well.  Built-in vent should help with mildew or mold.  Small straps secure it to the legs if you wish.  I bought the Ultima version which comes with a 7 year warranty.  Supposedly you can get free shipping with first order if you sign up with them.  I had to call them to get this accomplished.  Overall a nice cover.

    Ok thanks.  That is the cover I was looking at as well. I currently have the side shelves and was wondering how they fit past as this cover seems to have a smaller diameter than my BGE cover.

    I have that one (Elite fabric). Don't buy it. Fits great without the shelves, but not with them. It'll go over them, but it's a tight fit. It also won't go all the way down. If you try to force it, the cover will tear. Don't ask me how I know this.

    Regardless, covers are a pain. I used mine 2-3 times (before I got the shelves), put it away and haven't used it since. Except the one time I ripped it when I tried it on after I got the shelves.

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Thanks Carlona thats what I thought.  My BGE cover that was made for a large is about 36" diameter.  However they claim that the 29" is for the large and the 34" is for the XL.

    I can't comment on the fit, but I'm a big fan of the Elite cover from The Cover Store.  I have one for our fountain we cover in the winter, one for a TV mounted on the deck, and one for my Weber gasser.  The quality is outstanding on the Elite and I highly recommend it, if you can get one that fits.
