Is it a tough exterior? My daughter is a farmer.

I have to beg to differ. I have a 5 acre property with two horses, I ride at another barn where I keep my own horse, and then I work at a barn with 18 horses. You get the picture, lots of barns, lots of wear and tear. This coat has held up incredibly well, washes extremely well, and is still just fine after a few years of near daily fall and winter use. I am looking possibly get another "non-barn" jacket here.

I wouldn't recommend it for her, because it snags pretty easily. As my husband said, "It's no Carhartt".

I don't believe it is particularly 'tough' if you are asking if it would hold up to repeated abrasive wear. It has the same texture as a windbreaker. That, combined with the reflective interior material, makes it very effective though.

Eleanor, I got this for my mother. She has it up against the side of her house with heavy pots in it. She hasn't had any problems but it is in a somewhat sheltered area. We were both surprised with the quality of the greenhouse when we got it. We were not expecting much with the cost and packaging. My mom has been very pleased and it is serving its purpose for her.Hope this helps.

Is fine in our back yard with strong winds, have placed small bricks in corners, but have had no problems. It comes with small tent pegs, but I wouldn't trust them to strong winds. No cover for the front. Live in high desert, so rain hasn't been a problem.

Hello - It's still holding up strong on my mother-in-laws front porch. Her porch is not enclosed, but has a roof. It has faced all the weather elements over the year and still looks great. For the price we paid, we couldn't pass it up. Good luck!

I have not had any problems even in high winds. I just raked out the dirt a little deeper, pushed it in the ground and covered it with the remaining dirt. The bottom has two prongs formed like an H and it is very secure. I planted flowers around the base and it is just beautiful!

It is sturdy - but your toddler will easily push it over. Also, got mine last summer, and now the paint is peeling off. Maybe I should have taken it inside during the winter.

I anchored mine down with heavy duty fence stakes from home depot and it withstands strong winds. The tiny stakes provided are laughable. The rest of the greenhouse is quite economical and functional.

Nope, my daughter's still in great conditions after almost 1 year of continuous use...make sure it's assembled properly. GOOD LUCK!!

This was a gift to our daughter. She has set her shelter up on her back patio for the same reason you are contemplating. She has not complained about it blowing away. I'll check the next time I talk with her.

It is pretty durable fabric. Branches and twigs would not effect it. Our two are hung from trees in the woods.

Mine has done well in rain and snow. bought a second one for the walkway. Both are hung on garden stakes so no protection from the elements.

I have had it outside for several months now and it still looks good. It does seem to be harder at the bottom. This may be a normal punching bag issue.

Mainly camp in wooded areas, so I can't really speak to how hot it gets in direct sun with no wind. We did put it up a few times in an open spot. I found it to be one of the best items we have bought. Sturdy and it is all mesh except for the roof. The walls are nearly perpendicular. So headspace even if it rains. But it isn't really a dark color. It's a light greenish tan. Like the definition of khaki. So I guess I have not found this to be an issue.

We only ever took it on the sidewalk and it was fine. No rough rides for baby. Not sure if you are talking about on the grass or something but we never went "off-roading" with it.

yes it is extremely sturdy we have taken it inside due to bad weather and my daughter has used it for exercise.

Yes, it is sturdy and well made. It should not be exposed to pouring rain or lots of direct sun for the finish will be ruined, but Zi had mine in a screened in porch under heavy shade trees.

Hi, we don't walk through the woods, but she does walk through some tall weeds along the end of yards and her mesh doesn't snag. The mesh is tightly wove and feels like nylon and has a slick feel so I don't think walking in the woods would be a problem.
