I wa confused when Sunbella gave a 10 yr then on the plus a 5 year. Truly what is the best outdoor material for a boat cover.
Well it depends on what the application is and what type of cover it is.
Sunbrella changed it's warranty, in my opinion, to stand out from it's competitors. Truthfully, in 30 years I have not had a problem with sunbrella or any other acrylic. So why not raise the warranty. Sunbrella plus is a coated fabric, more risky to warranty. It actually has had some mold issues on the underside in that past, so I think that one is not ever likely to have a 10 year warranty.
Sunbrella is a fine breathable fabric.
I also like Top Notch 9 and weathermax 80 boat cover materials.
Hope this helps,
Tammy
