Quick answer

Choose the 5 Person Chef's Table Cover if you own the Chef's Table model and want a tailored, heavy-duty fit; pick the Patio 36" Griddle Cover for a more affordable, weather-resistant option that fits standard 36-inch Patio Series griddles.

Design and fit differences

The Chef's Table Cover is custom-designed for the 5 Person Chef's Table, which has a different shape and footprint than a standard 36-inch Patio griddle. The Patio 36" Griddle Cover is sized specifically for the Patio Series, so mixing them up could leave gaps or cause a poor fit.

Both covers use heavy-duty 600-denier polyester, but the Chef's Table Cover includes reinforced corners for extra durability on a larger, more complex shape. The Patio cover relies on reinforced stitching for strength.

Weather protection and materials

Both covers are weather-resistant and UV-resistant, shielding your equipment from rain, sun, and debris. The Chef's Table Cover emphasizes a "glove-like" fit that keeps wind from lifting the cover, while the Patio cover is designed for easy placement and removal for quick access.
