Grill Cover for Pit Boss 850 and 820 Series - Heavy Duty Protection

In this review the reviewer looks at the ZJYWSCH grill cover designed for the Pit Boss 850 and 820 series and similar 700-800 class pellet grills. The bottom line: this cover is for owners who need a durable, water-resistant cover that fits a range of Pit Boss Pro and Competition models and offers better protection than thinner factory covers. The review finds the cover stands out for its heavy-duty PVC-lined Oxford construction and practical features like a drawstring and waterproof zipper.

Key Features

• Custom Fit: Designed to fit Pit Boss Pro Series 850 and many 820 models so the cover hugs the grill rather than billowing in wind.
• Heavy Duty Material: Made from PVC-lined 600D Oxford fabric to resist tears and provide long-term protection against sun and weather.
• Waterproof Construction: Fully waterproof coating and sealed seams keep rain and snow from soaking the grill.
• Wind Security: Integrated adjustable drawstring secures the cover at the base to prevent uplift in strong gusts.
• Protected Access: Waterproof zippers reduce leaking and protect the zipper from tearing when putting the cover on or taking it off.
• Generous Dimensions: At approximately 56in wide x 27in deep x 50in high, it covers many 700-800 series pellet grills and similar models.

Who It's For

This cover is best for Pit Boss owners of the Pro Series 850 and the wide family of 820 models who want a thicker, more weatherproof alternative to a stock cover; it suits anyone who stores their pellet grill outdoors through rain and seasonal sun. The build quality and drawstring make it appropriate for users who have faced covers blowing away or failing after heavy storms.

Customers who need a precise fit for very large XL or 1000-series grills should look elsewhere, since this cover does not fit Austin XL/1000S/1100 Pro Series models. Also, buyers seeking a thin, lightweight carry cover for frequent transport will prefer a lighter material.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Thick PVC-lined 600D fabric provides strong resistance to sun, rain and tears compared with thinner covers.
• Drawstring and waterproof zippers keep the cover secure and help prevent water entry at closures.
• Fits a broad list of Pit Boss 850 and 820 variants plus other 700-800 class pellet grills, offering versatile fitment.

Cons

• Some customers reported mixed long-term durability, with isolated tearing complaints despite generally positive feedback on protection.
• The cover is large and heavier than minimalist covers, which may be awkward for users who want a light portable option.
