I heard someone complain that the rain can come in with these units. How tight is the seal against rain and insects?

It'll be up to you to make sure that you fit it snugly to your window opening - some weather-sealing foam tape is provided but to get a really good seal you'd probably want to pick up an extra roll. The unit itself seems like it's got some airflow to the outside, but not as much as other units I've used - if you're really concerned you can also pick up a cover for the inside or outside of the unit that can be fitted when you're not using it.

I have not experienced any leaks because I took care about good seal around the unit.

While I have not had any leaks, there are no seals. Shed relies totally on overlapping surfaces. I would NOT rely on this shed for any water sensitive or other such valuables.

The cover has been water tight for me. Living in Phoenix, we do not get much rain but when we get it is very heavy.

There is no weather proof seal. I would not suggest it unless you had some secondary cover for it. I use this purely to hold some items out of reach of the wandering nephews and quick access for myself. This is far from high security or what I would use as outdoor security

Seems like it should be at least resistant but to be honest I have not tested that yet. I doubt rain water could penetrate the material unless you submerge it but the zipper is what I would question since there is no rubber seal. Hope that helps.

Rain has not been a problem. The mail box lid is not opened very long. I love mine.

They seem pretty well sealed to me...im near seattle too...have had big temperature changes and lots of rain lately never an issue with moisture. Highly recommend they are really good

rain does not leak through at all. However if the wind is blowing and its raining I always pull the furniture away from the screened walls so things don't get wet. Yes bugs are kept out by the screening. We live in Minnesota and we have numerous bugs/mosquitoes etc and they don't come through the screening. We've had this screened house for years now and except for how dirty the trees above make it we have had zero issues with it. We do end up bleach?washing the roof every spring because of the dirt from leaves etc. Its been holding up very well.

Not really :-( It depends on where you live you'll be able to get away with it. We live in San Diego so we don't get too much rain but....a completely sealed one would be better. Had we seen the back of the refrjigerator before purchase we wouldn't have bought it - but paying to return etc we kept it - it works fine for us but don't expect it to last too many years.

It is not completely watertight. I've had no problems in rainy weather, but the car wash can get past the seal. The contents are safe in the rain. It's a great cover. Thumbs up.

I have no idea how sealed it is, but as I had used during slight rain, it worked well.

These are NOT a sealed unit.....The rain would more than likely either be amplified to the point it would bother you or to a point it shut the sound off. I wouldn't use them in the rain

Ahh I know it will tolerate some rain, but it's not water proof. If you have it set to intake, it will suck a little bit of the rain in, but be ok.

The remote control can take water droplets on surface as well as the the IR reciever small black antenna. Yes it seems water tight.

I've used this tent in rain, sleet, hail and snow. Leaking has never been a problem.

That amount of rain....Yes...you might also consider sealing the floor some how too

There is a gasket that protects the interior from the effects of weather. My box contains my rain machine controller and has protected it through some rather strong rain with no problems.
