Relative newbie
I've tried a few inc Fiama and some rather more expensive ones - all rubbish, ill-fitting, and far too lightweight. The best I've seen in real life and now purchased and have done a test fit (but not used in anger until the end of this week for our Cornwall trip) is the Tailormade.

Another vote for bags4everything. They will even make bespoke products should you not find what you want

Still dropping clangers and making it up as I go along
I bought a real cheap less than £30 takes a but if fiddling to stop I'd flapping (made for 2 bikes so bit big) but so far has kept the bike clean dry and out of sight. No complaints for what I paid how long will it last its on its 4th year 🤷‍♀️

I'm new to it
I have a 2 electric bike cover made by Tailor-Made of Huddersfield. Just checked for you and they are £76 at the moment.

What ever happened to good old canvas covers?
Tough, waterproof and dont fall apart in UV light.

We have a Oxford bike cover.
It's OK,

BUT
It takes at least 15 mins to put on the first time.
It needs a very tall person, or a step ladder, to do it up every time,
as the zip is over the top, which is fine for a towball mounted carrier, but not for a rear wall mounted carrier.
So make sure you can do it up before you buy it!
It is also not heavy rain proof.
I'd not buy another.

Another vote for Tailor made. My Fiamma one ripped after less than a year and are not really big enough to cover big electric bikes but the replacement one from Tailor Made is plenty big enough.

Since 2011 therefore I'm not a newbie anymore
Bags4Everything vote from me. Had three Fiama over the 10 years with our Racing bikes, but when we went electric I wanted something heavier.

Quite easy to fit ( ours is bottom strap fastening but absolutely no rain gets through after a years use.

would recommmend.

Was a Newbie but getting the hang of it now.

Taylormade for me as well.

Another vote for Hindermann. Ours zips up so keeps the bikes dry. Fiamma ones only half cover the bikes and are crap.

Spoke too soon caught it on a sharpe edge then under the wheel so now slowly (not so slowly) disintegrating
