Can it be used outdoors?

It is UL listed, and appears to be constructed just like any grounded extension cord you would buy at a hardware store.

I wouldn't use this outside, I don't think it wouldn't give off enough heat for outdoor use.

As far as the unit itself, no reason it can't be used outside. The legs are not very strong but depending on where in the U.S. you live, don't see a problem.

I don't use it outside. There is no reason it wouldn't. If my dog lived outside, I wouldn't hesitate to use it there. I would protect it from the sun damaging the plastic.

I would not use it outside as it is not weather tight. In a place without direct exposure, it may work for a while.

I would not use it anywhere, least of all, outdoors. I found the device to be completely unreliable--to the point of being useless--and returned it. It certainly did not seem like it was designed or constructed for outdoor use. Perhaps if it were under an overhang and not directly exposed to the elements it would "work"

Not at all. It is all plastic with a metal bowl, so no problem with using outdoors.

It could be used outdoors as long as the electrical connections are waterproofed.

The company should answer. However, I do not believe that this was designed for outdoor use.

It is made of an unfinished wood. To use it outside you would have to put some kind of finish on it to protect it from the elements. Other than that it would work.

Negative it is not designed for outdoor use! Unless you enclose it somehow so the weather can't get to it! Hope it helps!

I have not tried using it outside. But as a precaution, make sure it is under a bit of shelter. Just so it won't to fry the "Jetson" thingy

You could use it outdoors as long as it is on a flat and hard surface like a sidewalk/driveway/deck. I wouldnt use it on thick grass. I use it in my apartment on hardwood and carpet (no access to a yard)

I don't know why it couldn't be used outside. It is all plastic (or something like that). It seems like it would be water proof. Moisture might make it slippery and therefore not too safe; maybe that is why it is listed for indoor use.

Sure you can use it outdoors. It has a small battery box on it that would probably be completely ruined, but you are free to put the thing any place you want. Just don't expect it to last long out there if it starts raining...

I don't know if it can because it doesn't specify....I would say not to use it outdoors because it can get damaged by the weather/elements. It doesn't seem sturdy enough to leave outdoors 24/7, but if you put it out only during the day and bring it in if bad weather occurs, I suppose it might be fine. However, I would advise getting one specifically made for outdoors.
