Slip Cover Set of 4

LOVE THESE SO MUCH! I have a slip cover that is about 4 inches too short in length, and for the last year I have fought with the slipcover daily, multiple times daily I might add. Lately I had been using slim books and shoving them in the arm and back areas to tuck the slipcover in and even though it works to a degree, I have books sticking out from my couch. AND since the books IM using only have a smooth binder side, the slip covers eventually come undone.ANYWAYS, I order these bad boys, got 5 of them. 3 of them are longer and used for the back cushions and 2 side/arm ones. They have 3 sides, kinda triangular, which is the reason the slipcovers stay tucked in. I can sit on my couch now and my slipcover barely moves. IM sure ill have to re-tuck here and there, but I can get up from my couch, and the slipcover stays pretty much in place.IM not saying I can jump and and down, or do backflips off it and the cover remains in place, BUT it stays in place from sitting or laying with slight cover indentation of where i was sitting. Just a brush of my hand, and it smooths back out!-5 STARS only because these work! DISCLAIMER: THESE ARE WORKING FOR MY COUCH AND SLIPCOVER. and my slipcover is a pain in the arse, SO more than likely, these will work for yours!-*2 STARS for the smell when taking them out of the plastic wrap. I had to let them sit outside for a few hours to air out (IM highly sensitive to smell, so others may not be affected). I cleaned them off with some alcohol and then tucked them in!-3 STARS, as 1 grip was slightly bent, but didn't affect the overall mechanical aspect of the grip.*MY 2 stars for smell will not affect my overall rating, as I LOVE THESE and that smell does go away.HOWEVER, if i could give stars to this slipcover- THAT I didn't buy off amazon, I would rate it 3 stars for being way too short for my couch!Also, these arrived 1 week prior to estimated delivery date- so that for sure contributed to the 5 stars!

A bit overpriced but useful to keep slipcovers in place

Guys, if you A) don’t expect this product to perform miracles and defy physics, and B) hopefully have a couch with non-removable cushions, then these things work fantastic.Only knocked a star off because they are waaaay expensive for what you are getting.UPDATE: Okay, having lived with these for a few weeks, I’m upping my rating. Five stars, easy!The key seems to be if your couch has attached cushions or removable ones. I have what I affectionately refer to as “waiting room couches,” with sewn-down cushions that are incredibly firm. My “cover” is nothing more than a microfiber blanket I’ve thrown over them to keep the dog from scratching the vinyl, and to keep the vinyl from sticking to my skin on hot days. But even without any straps securing the blanket, just these plastic bars... it hasn’t shifted, scooted, or come untucked anywhere in the last two weeks! I mean, AT ALL! And me and my dog are on these things for several hours a day, slouching, putting legs up, putting legs down, laying down, laying down then rolling over....And again, just a blanket, no straps... and they stay put!I’m certain if there was any give in the cushions to let the gripper-bars slide out, they wouldn’t work near as well. So keep that in mind when trying to decide whether or not to buy these.

These are very sturdy but they do NOT keep a slipcover in place. Unless it is one that has individual cushion covers , it's totally ineffective. I you have a one piece cover , it doesn't necessarily pull cover out of creases, but the cover doesn't stay in place when you sit on it. The "skirt" comes "up" and pools on the sofa. I've had to take the cover off...after two weeks I will have to return it as it is not effective.

I used them to secure a couch cover and they work PERFECTLY. I was worried about the couch cover slipping around and looking sloppy, but these clips keep it in place and it looks so nice. I had seen pictures where couch covers are all rumpled and askew, but mine barely slides around because I have these holding it in place. I have had three dogs up on it alongside me, including one who is a couch digger, and it still held in place. I've also fallen asleep on it a few times and it looks none the worse the next morning. In fact, I've commented repeatedly to my partner about how pleased I am with the whole set-up.If you are purchasing a couch cover, go with a set of these to really fit it into place.Note the picture doesn't show the clips; I wanted to show the effect you can create using them. I bought the five piece set. There are three along the back below the cushions. The cover wasn't long enough to cover the arms of my chair, so I took the ones that would go there and used them to tuck the bottom under my cushions just a little to create that ruffle effect. Surprisingly those ones still hold in place just fine. The picture is after three weeks of wear with minimal adjusting. It just works!

I think these work pretty well. We have two elephant bamboo couches (we live in Hawaii) That had worn out covers and I was just not ready to pay a few thousand dollars to have them recovered yet. I purchased a couple of couch covers for the cushions and got a new look that will hopefully get me through another two years before I get them professionally covered. The problem was, every time we sat on them or our cats played on them, the couch cover would have to be tucked in again which was frustrating. We purchased one set of these ( which was actually enough for two couches because we do not have side arms that get tucked in). The couch upstairs that I sit down and read on on a regular basis and the cats jump on all day and night seems to be holding out excellent with these. The couch downstairs has my daughters friends sleeping over all the time and gets more use… It definitely is a big improvement but not perfect down there but good enough… Considering people are sleeping on it. Overall I would recommend these. The quality seems to be really good thick rubber and I don’t see any way it can “go bad” no rusting ( A big concern when you live next to the ocean ) or disintegrating or batteries etc. just a simple fix!
