I got the camo cover for the #3. Fits over the smoker easily but not so tight you struggle to remove it. It has room to accomodate the cord hook. Had tried to order the black vinyl one but was not in stock when I made my smoker purchase. When I picked up my unit recently Steve threw it in gratis. I think it looks great. Seems like it would stand up well to the elements. I like Tony's idea of the "chin strap" for outside storage. Mine is in the garage so not much of an issue there.
