Watershed Innovations HydraTarp Heavy-Duty Waterproof Reversible Tarp, 12 by 16 Feet, White/Brown

This tarp is far superior to most tarps Amazon sells. This tarp has lasted over 5 years and is still in good shape, other than some damage suffered in a hurricane.

I bought this 12 X 40 tarp in 2021 and used it exclusively to cover my 5th wheel for over a year while I replaced the roof and rehabbed the AC units. It held on during tropical storms and sliding across rough edges. Didn't have a garage big enough to work on the RV, so this was my garage. Weathered great. No leaks, no rips, no tears, not a grommet pulled out.

Probably my review is a bit premature, since the cover has only been in place for a couple weeks (early November). The size I ordered was perfect for intended partial cover for winter storage of my motorhome and the white color matches the color of the motorhome very well. The cover appears to be heavy duty, although time will be the test of durability over this coming Cleveland Ohio winter. So far, we've had only one decent snow (about 4") and the cover remains it place and shows no signs of deterioration.....but it's still early. One of the grommets fell out of the cover upon unfolding it, although the number and spacing of grommets seemed adequate for my application. I am also disappointed with pinholes along the hem line where it is attached to the cover. I am hoping they are will not deteriorate to the point of separation/tearing.

After buying this and feeling how heavy and thick it is, I will never buy the cheaper ones that you are lucky if they last 6 months I bought this to cover my camper, just the roof area with enough to cover about a foot down on each side and about 4 feet down on each end of the camper The nice thing is it is white which makes it look much better then the blue, brown or silver ones which makes what you are covering stand out With this being white it blends in with my camper So far we have had 40mph winds and no problems, rain and snow with no problems, even with temperatures dropping below freezing the trap is still flexible With a RV cover you are spending on average around $300 and they only last a couple of years, they break down fast with the sun and start to rip apart. If you think about it you really just need to keep the roof of your camper covered, to help the coating or rubber roof from breaking down from the sun and to help it from leaking. The RV covers are almost paper thin on the sides, so why spend $300 or more on a RV cover that will only last a couple of years when you can spend a 1/3 of that and even if you need to buy a new trap every year you are still a head I think I will get about 4 plus years out of this trap and will buy another one These are heavy so plan on having a couple of people helping you to cover your camper, if you are able to get up on your roof of your camper you should be able to get it done by yourself I am using 1/4 Paracord to tie mine done which is working out good, I didn't want to want to use bungee cord just because the hooks might scratch up the paint on the camper If any problems with the tarp I will update my review, so far it's been on a month and still happy with it

I needed a new cover for my sports car, boats, and lumber, and the 20' x 30' HydraTarp seemed to fit the bill. Because I was in a hurry getting projects done before surgery, I didn't follow all of HydraTarp's instructions for tying down the tarp, but I thought it would be ok (photo 1). As often happens here in Florida, it rained, and rained, and rained for the two weeks following surgery. By the time I was able to get out again, my poor sagging tarp had collected what I estimate as several hundred pounds of water (Photo 2). After two weeks there were NO LEAKS, NO STRETCHING, and not a drop of water on my car. As soon as I'm able I'll anchor my tarp solidly (with bungie cord) and anticipate a long, happy life.

I bought the same product twice in 2019 and replaced them with a new size at the start of April. The previous products lasted for years. The one from this year? Hardly 6 months. Last night, I just ordered a couple for my paddle boards in Mexico and on my way to dumping my trash, I noticed the two holes and tear (upper right, around the tennis ball) and I immediately canceled the order. Not recommended for Arizona. Durability: 0/10

We bought this tarp to put under a bouncy house, and it has served admirably through two seasons of use. It's nice and thick, very durable, and has protected the bouncy house perfectly - there are no signs of wear on the bottom of the bouncy house, and very few on the tarp through pretty rough use. We always have a few juniper seedlings in the lawn, and those things don't mess around, but the tarp just has a couple of tiny scratches. It's still totally weatherproof - we can put up the bouncy house even if it rained overnight and the yard is wet. It folds up easily too. I would highly recommend this tarp!

This is the 2nd tarp I purchased from this company. I was so impressed with the first one. But this new one had many flaws. I have a short window of time to cover my trailer, so when I opened the tarp and saw there was clearly a hole and large areas where it had been patched, I had to make a choice. I chose to repair it. I HAD to have the tarp up that day. It appeared that two pieces were "melted" together..?? Also smashed grommets. These are usually REALLY great tarps. And they are expensive. So I am disappointed that the one i bought had flaws. I cant just refold this one and send it back. Again..great product but THIS one was not worth the money.

We used this to cover a deck for a wedding. It was folded so the centre grommets we’re damaged and the grommets were at inconsistent intervals so it was difficult to install nicely. It was also 15 1/2 x 11 1/2 not 16 x 12. I lost some money on the install due to so much time measuring perfectly for the eye bolts etc.

Perfect for use as an RV roof cover. Excellent quality and thickness. Paired it with TRex outdoor tape and it was a good project that saved our RV from a leaking roof seam.

I’m using it to cover a boat over winter and it looks like I could get atleast get multiple winters out of it.

There are alot of pinholes near the the stitched seams, but also randomly through the tarp. I purchased this to replace the tarp on my carport and am hoping those holes don't become weak spots and tear during the harsh winter.

Used this tarp on top of my existing portable garage which had gotten a few rips in it and it is just like a new cover at a quarter of the price.
