is this water proof could it be used outside in an uncovered area without getting my mails wet

I have it attached to my home outside that faces SW. We've had many rain/snow/sleet/hail storms and it has remained just fine.

mine is in an open place and my mail is always ok but my friend got one too and his does get wet

Ours was on a covered porch, so I can't say for sure, but it seems that it would keep mail dry.

I bought this for my parents, they live outside of Chicago, because they were having a hard time finding the correct size. They really enjoy the product and they haven't had any complaints.

The one I own is outside I don't believe my mail has ever been wet not made very well I have to tell you they are sold at Lowes less shipping

I wouldn't use it outside uncovered, simply because legal size envelopes leave the lid left open. If only smaller envelopes were put in it than I would say yes. We have them on our apartment complexes and love them, but they are on covered porches.

Yes, as long as lid is closed. I have mine mounted in uncovered outside area.

I have no idea, I just used it in the Bahamas to carry some light stuff. It does not seem to be waterproof. but I don't think getting it damp will hurt it.

Yes it is. We have had our box for a number of months now. We live at top of a ridge and our mail box has been exposed to heavy rain, snow, and wind, we have seen no moisture within the box or on the mail, even when we left the mail in it for several days.

You could, but I would not use it in areas exposed to the elements. It may be fine, but it does not feel like it is made to be water proof.

Possibly in covered areas, but I wouldn't use it areas exposed to rain/snow.

No, I would not leave it outdoors, but you could use it outdoors if there is NO chance of it getting wet.

I would say it is water resistant for use in the rain, but I would not use it underwater. I don't recall anything mentioned in the packaging material saying it was for use underwater or being waterproof.

I would not use this outside unless it in an area that is protected from the weather. I doubt this would be water-tight and might fill with water if rained on.

Depends on where you would place it outside. It should not be exposed to an area that can et wet, such as rain or snow because it is paper. But this is great quality and looks so realistic. Maybe if you have a patio or a place where it can be seen without exposing it to consistent water, I wouldn't see why you can't.

If you are trying to find out, if this could be used in the RAIN? the answer io NO! all OUTDOOR electrical related items, have to seal so that no water gets into the electrical connection.... this item is not set up for that.... but if you are looking to use it in a DRY outdoor event.... you will be fine!

I wouldn't say it is waterproof, but it's pretty water tight. Mine is installed under a covered porch. I don't think it would hold out water if submersed, but unless it is subjected to severely heavy rain regularly, I think it would be okay.

I've used it in the rain with no problems. I wouldn't stick it under water or anything, but if it gets some water on it it should be fine.

I only used it under tile...not indoor outdoor carpet...I'm not sure I would hope for water proofing with carpet.

No. It's not water proof. It's metal and water could get through. The door is not sealed. Hope that helps.

I don't believe so. The connections for the wires are not protected from the elements. There's no evident attempt to 'waterproof' it. Great unit in covered area.

Since it is stamped steel, the sunlight probably won't hurt it except to get everthing insde very hot, but it is not water proof. It does not have seals around the doors.

If by that you mean "is it water proof", almost nothing electrical that isn't sealed is safe for outdoor use. On the other hand it is ruggedly built with an on-off switch to turn on-off electrical power. But I wouldn't leave it outside in the rain.
