no, I have a hard top also and it does not leak, the windshield fits under the lip of the top

Yes! I don't use it on trails just drive way when top is off. I live in Cali so the weather isn't extreme but it's weather a couple days of solid rain and not a drop inside. Is exactly the same as the soft top. I would recommend and buy again.

No. It's hard to keep things dry when it's raining hard but this box does a good job. You can see in the picture that the top has sides to it that cover the bottom section. It does pretty well at keeping the rain out. I am pleased with it myself.

I don't use a roof rack and gaps in doors are sealed by my cars weatherstrip, never had an issue in heavy rain. Keep straps tight and a half twist in them and they won't "sing" at higher speeds

Not at all! Let it rain all day and night and you will remain cool. Great unit enjoy.

It will repel gentle rain but I wouldn't trust it in any sort of hard rain. It is just too small for that.

Unfortunately I no longer have this product. I would say yes, if you have some type of overhang. Otherwise, rain will wash it away.

I wouldn't leave it out in the rain. It won't do you any good any way. Hard to say about laptop. Depends on the laptop.

What part of it? Base NO! Unless your a engineer, rain drops yes if you have a lot of TIME on your HANDS. Good Luck.of it

no if it rain anything inside will get wet. It's a mesh material but the bottom is plastic so the rain would sit at the bottom.

It is not a soft top. It is a complete cover to protect from the elements. Completely covers the windshield so not recommended.

It is not water proof, I have 3 of these between the seats of my cj7 with no windows and no hardtop. lol in Southern California weather...

I don't have a soft top on my JK, but I will say this, there is approximately 1-2" clearance between the tubular bar and the roof/windshield. I think what might get you with your soft top is the fact that the tabs/shelves that you attach your lights to are behind the tube that goes across. I measured the clearance from them to the line where my hard top edge is and it is approximately 0.5" in front of and 1.25" above that line. If I had to guess, I would say that the overlap of your cloth top would probably touch them but not be a problem.

No. The canopy material is porous and will allow water to come through. In the rain I don't notice hardly any water coming through as the material sags some towards the middle. I was however surprised as to how gracefully the canopy handles the wind. Good Luck

I would imagine it would as the vent in the top overlaps but if your worried about things getting wet (most rain storms are not straight down!) I would just get a standard canopy with no roof vent. We use ours in sunny weather so have not had a downpour hit it yet!

Hello! Yes, the rain goes right through unless it rains very heavily. It can sag somewhat so we put up a pole in the center to raise it slightly. We like that look also. We used the Shade Sail Hardware Kit (Square) ordered from Amazon for $15.76 plus shipping. Nice heavy duty hardware. Hope this helps. Best wishes, Gary

I have mine on the front of a custom chopper 6 inches of the road in Florida, and try as I may it rains here and it has been fine. I don't think you can get a better test than a Thunder storm in Florida at 70 MPH, O and the front tire spins the rain right onto it no issues at all. PS this thing is dam bright. as in I can see through stuff. (cars, people, its like xray)
