    I am looking for suggestions for a nylon, padded  grand piano cover that is flexible enough to be folded in thirds, rolled, and be able to be placed on a chair. We have a cover like this, but it was here before I came, so I don't know the source. We have another piano cover that is so bulky that it is difficult to roll, and cannot be placed on a chair unless the chair is against the wall to trap the cover so that it does not unroll. This cover is not user friendly.

    Hi Lucy,
    The most durable covers (although perhaps not the ones best suited for folding) that I've found are from Covers by Jill. 


    I hope you find what you need.

    All the best,
    Jon

    Lucy,
    What you describe sounds like one I have, which was purchased 20 years ago from American Piano Supply. I think somebody advertises having continued the APSCO cover business, but can't think who that is. And they might not have the same materials.
    Regards,

    Yes, just call Covers By Jill. You'll probably be talking with Dennis.

    They make covers of different thicknesses.

    You can't have the convenience I do, of driving to Salem and picking up a cover to save the cost and delay of shipping, but they can do what you want.

    Forget the chair, get a plastic bin
