Does it keep the rain out, and is it OK to leave out during snowy weather?

It is dry inside. However there was a big spider in mine this week so it isnt airtight. I cant answer the snow question cause we dont really have that much in my state. Overall I like the box.

Yes it has been weather proof and keeps dry inside. I have had it for 3 or 4 years now and it sits outside on a deck all year around. The only change has been that the blue top has faded due to direct sign, rain, heat and cold but other then that, it has provided great service.

I store cushions and radio from the pool area. Keeps rain out. I leave it out all winter (northern winters). No problems. Also keeps rodents out. This is the third summer for mine. I'd buy it again

It never gets rain in it, but I can't answer for snow as I live in the desert. I love it and it's held up wonderfully.

I kept mine out over the winter. We had a couple of heavy snowstorms. Not a problem. As far as rain, airtight so far -- have had it about a year.

I keep it under a covered porch so I can't say. However, it is very cheaply made and if you make a mistake putting it together you will not be able to get it apart to fix it. I don't recommend it.

I do not leave it up in winter or in severe storms, mostly because I do not want to damage it. With the sun at a different angle in winter I do not need it since my patio is partially covered. I installed it with hooks so it is very easy to take down and put back up so if you do it that way, you can leave it up as long as you like and you can decide. It helps with temp in summer, but here it will not matter in winter, since it does not get that cold. Yes, it does block wind, but I think it will last longer if you keep it out only in warm temps. Hope this help. You won't regret your purchase, it is a wonderful product. I do not leave it up in winter or in severe storms, mostly because I do not want to damage it.

I used my item in the summer rain and it held out good. It was still working when I put it away in November. I would cover it with plastic(a bag) if you plan on using it in the snow,...just to be safe.

I've left it up year round. It doesn't divert rain, the water seeps through easily, but it's more hassle to remove every season. I don't think it affects the patio temperature in any way because the material is not that thick. It works great in blocking out the strong sun on a bright day. I believe I've gotten my money's worth.

While it can withstand snow, as it melts it will go right through. I keep mine on all year as it keeps away most spring to fall debris and add a winter cover on top of it. I love this cover.. great purchase.

I'm not sure if this cover is rain or snow proof because we keep the car in the garage. We just bought it to keep the cat prints off the car. It does seem to keep the dust out and polishes the car as you take the cover off and fits like it said it would. Overall, very happy with the cover.

it seems to stay pretty dry inside, but i wish i had ordered the larger size so there would be more room away from the open door when it is raining hard out. for the winter i put them under our wooden picnic table and covered it with a tarp to keep the wind and snow off them and that worked well. they don't work well in blowing snow without additional cover.

I wouldn't recommend this tent in the snow or the wind. This Tent NEEDS to be staked down to stay up (not sure it would hold the weight of snow or gusts of wind. But is has a nice water proof base that comes up about a foot on the edges, so rain is ok.

If it is protected from the elements, I would think it was ok. Although I would bring inside for rain/snow.

I have just installed the box and haven't been in winter weather with it yet. I am planning to install a sheet metal cover over it and will be o.k. if I keep it dry.

Do not leave it out in the rain or snow. The insulation in the lid gets wet and will cause the lid to seperate. We keep our on the deck and move it to the patio when it rains. It's a great little cooler.

It is designed to be used outdoors. I have not had an issue with it in the rain or the snow.

It seems to be. I wouldn't leave it where the elements, like rain, snow, etc can get to it.Hope this helps.

It works fine in the rain, no issues. I haven't encountered any snow so I can't answer to that.

The cover doesn't have any reflective qualities that I can see, therefore I would say it would not keep the heat out. It is great for winter weather though. I've given these covers as gifts and have always received rave compliments on its effectiveness.

We keep ours under a covered pergola. Had it out all winter and still works great. I don't think I would want it completely exposed to the elements. Snow and ice would probably ruin it.

It definitely keeps the rain out. I put a small board on it incase the wind might blow it off !
