AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Outdoor grills can be expensive and many simple single function covers are available for protection from the outdoor elements.
However, they all require cumbersome removal and no protection of any form is provided upon removal.
Replacing the covers onto the grill can be a difficult task due to the tight fitting.
Often these covers are damaged in the replacement process.
A canopy usually requires additional space surrounding the grill and takes up useful outdoor living space.
