Car cover material was very good quality, thick and sturdy. Bought this just before the snow came in! I actually just meant to buy it since my windshield frosts over in the cold and it is a pain to defrost when you are in a hurry to get to work! I planned to prevent that this year. My car is under covered parking, so for the most part I didn't need it for the snow exactly, but the effects of it. I do think if you have no covered parking, this would be super beneficial to keep the snow off!
