Product not what I needed. Returned item for refund. The product was good quality just not what I needed.After using my grill twice and having rain once, I went looking for a hard cover.The soft cover trapped rain water on top and you can't cover the griddle while it is hot. For these reasons, I went looking for a hard cover.I tried to buy another style, but it was not in stock and no idea when it would be back. This one was my only other option.It arrived in an X-Large box. I was immediately worried that I bought the wrong size. My griddle is 22". After opening the box, I was relieved to see it was indeed the 22" model but all the parts were loose in the box. The cover was in a plastic bag, and the handle was wrapped in bubble wrap separate. But all the screws, nuts, washers, and brackets were all loose in the box.After taking inventory, I was missing 1 nut and 1 screw, had 2 extra washers, and the hood was dented and scratched.I blame the seller/manufacturer for not having it properly packaged and Amazon for shipping it in an oversized box without any stuffing to keep it from pinballing around in the box.After using pliers to straighten a couple of corners where it connects to the griddle, it attached easily and worked as intended.I should have sent it back as damaged, but I didn't think the next one would come any better and there was no other option available.The product is nice as far covering the griddle well but the metal is pretty thin and flexible. Time will tell how long it will last from the elements.Attempted to attach to my 'blackstone 22" griddle', but found it did not properly align. Not sure what the issue was, my son believed that the brackets were not the correct ones for the product. As stated, it did not align and with some attempts to make adjustments. Once it was squared with the griddle, when attempting to close, it raised the rear portion of the cooking surface and did not allow it to seat properly on the base. Also, some damage to the rear corners of the griddle hood occurred in shipping, as the manufacturer did not place packing around the rear corners and they received damage in transit. Returned and ordered from a different supplier.The Dimond plate is decent thickness and overall the cover is good but it doesn’t hold its shape. It twists making it not sit in the grill perfectly flat and I assume that’s because of the thin material used. I constructed an “angle” board with a 2x4 to put the cover over so when I store it the water runs off. It is what it is and serves its purpose. For the money it’s a good buy IMO.Griddle. Cover extremely tight fit which makes it hard to get off after fighting to get it on the griddleRear corner was slightly bent , the handle was missing thread insert to attach to lidThis item is described as fitting a side or rear grease model. It does NOT fit a rear grease model right out of the box. Fortunately, youtube has a video demonstrating how spacers, washers, bolts & nuts can be bought at a hardware store to make it work. Necessary hardware should be included.Lid doesn’t fit right on 22” Blackstone. Hits the griddle at the front instead of closing over it. Nothing to stop it from swinging all the way backwards when you open it up to check your food. I wouldn’t recommend, unless you’re desperate like me and waiting for the authentic 22” Blackstone lid to be back in stock.Love this lid it’s exactly as describedIt’s a birthday present so it hasn’t been assembled yet
