I would like to know of one that fits them as well. I would like to still use the door if possible

[aeblank]

Honestly, IMO, covers are not good. Condensation collects under covers if there is not an air gap. I would try to get a shelterlogic shelter of an appropriate size.

[Locchamp]

So what are these covers and where do I get them?

No this shelter won't work for what I need why would covers be bad why would people use them if that was a concern?

I asked the same question a month or so ago about getting a cover for my ML23fb.
Didn't get many positive comments towards using a cover.
It pretty much came down to if you store it under a tree it might be worth getting a cover, but make sure it fits tightly or it could do more damage then it's worth.
I decided not to get one as our trailer is not stored under any trees, pretty much wide open space. And considering I don't ever see any covers on any of the trailers at the local RV dealer it pretty much answered my question if I should spend the money and get one.

Why would people build polebarns if covers were just as good?
To each their own, of course.
I won't use one (even on my grill) because in my climate it causes condensation (moisture) that will certainly mold/mildew. Other people think/choose differently, of course. Just offering an alternative viewpoint.

Good luck in your search.

$250 for a cover.

$7500+ for a pole barn. Plus permits (assuming it's allowed). Plus the land to put it on. HOA's don't take kindly to pole barns.

Hmmm.

Why DO people build pole barns? How come we aren't all driving Ferrari's? How come we aren't all living in 5000 sq ft houses on 20 acres?

Looks like time to get out the popcorn again!

We have never covered any of our unit (other than tire covers) but the motorhome sure does look sad under 4' of snow. A friend did buy a cover for his new TT and it caused damage. It flapped and rubbed in the wind and damaged the exterior badly in several spots.

I bought an ADCO 32842 DESIGNER SERIES TAN/WHITE TYVEK TRAVEL TRAILER COVER on EBay. It fits well, has a waterproof roof and breathable sides. There is zippered access to the door and storage.
We life in Florida, you cant get more humid!

It comes down to where you live & how much snow you get.
I live in Canada & we get lots of snow. I have no cover & won't get
one. But every year I'm up on the roof replacing any missing or
cracked caulking. The issue as somebody mentioned is the wind
causing damage with the material billowing.
If you still want a cover get an ADCO. They're about the best.
Can get them at Camping World.

Soy de Chile y para mí Roo19" compre un cover marca ADCO con muy buenos resultados para nuestro clima sus americano

You all are worrying me here. I have an ADCO cover for my new Lil Clipper. It's vented, zippered door entry, etc. In Vermont we have snow, cold, wind, sleet, whatever. Figured a cover would be protecting my camper. Heard never use a tarp as they don't breathe. Dealer service person said most important thing is to park it ON a tarp for winter storage as it keeps a lot of moisture out. Obviously more things to consider, antenna, tennis balls on the gutter drains, etc. But should I really worry about using the canvas cover?

I don't. Your results may differ.

We used an Adco cover on our 23LB for the first time last winter. Never had one problem with it moving around and we had a very windy and snowy winter. We are very pleased with it.

We got the ADCO Designer 34841 (20'-22') cover for our 23LB (2306).

This is the size recommended based on actual measurements of the trailer. ADCO website lets you enter trailer model#, but that resulted in recommendation of one size larger. Fit seems great, next size up would have been a lot of excess material.

Installed in about an hour, taking time getting all the straps adjusted. Should be able to cut that time in half at the end of next season.

Fits well, should give me the protection from the elements I was looking for over the next 5+ months.
