I have a cover. It's made with Sunbrella. Same as a boat top. Bought it in 2006. Still works well. Thread that was used to sew it together are starting to go bad. But our 13 year old MH looks like new.
Getting cover on can be a problem. I have a tractor with a front end loader to lift the 75 lbs cover to top rear of MH. Then pull the cover toward front of MH. With cover centered on roof start spreading out sides toward edge of roof. Start dropping sides down from front to rear of MH. I work towards MH ladder. Then start climbing down ladder while pulling rear of cover down. When top is in place. Install bungee straps in the 15 sets of grommet holes. This ties cover down so it will not billow or move around when wind blows.
I got my cover from Calmark. It was more than twice what the ADCO and similar covers cost.
Here is a picture of it installed.
