Will these blow away easily In the wind?

I have used them on picnics and have had no problems. I like that they are collapsable.

That's certainly likely. They are very lightweight. I like them and the fact that we get three sizes in the set. If it's windy, many things will blow away--paper napkins, your tablecloth, anything plastic that is lightweight. I've most used them in the house in summer to keep away the fruit flies. Don't let the wind factor keep you from buying these. They also collapse down to flat so they are easy to store.

They are lightweight, but because they are mesh, air can pass through them. Therefore, they wouldn't be as prone to being blown away by wind as an equally large object of the same weight, shape and surface area that is made of a nomporous material. With a strong wind it could stil happen, and the height and weight of the item that is covered would also figure into the equation, since the mesh makes it unlikely for the cover to gain lift.

I don't think so. They are fairly sturdy, but if there is major (gale force) wind, you might need to weigh them down with something. But just regular breezes won't be an issue.

No. They don't really block out wind very well, so sound will get thru as well.

I placed if in a raised vegtable bed so it's protected from the wind. I would think that it would blow away, at least the top layer

We have had over year on our back porch where we have had high winds and they did not fall over. They are very sturdy.

NO! They are way too thin for that. They will help, and will keep the wind off, but anything cooler than 65 and you will be cold. You CAN use them as a layer. It takes a little work, but under my 3/2 they work fine.

All cushions do not fasten down and yes they will get blown in the wind. But it makes for easy storage if need be.

Yes they will. They tie on, so they blow in the wind a little bit. But nice quality bags. I reinforced mine with Velcro. They work and look great.

It depends. It will withstand up to 30 mph winds. Anything higher and it will blow away. I found that out when I put it up in my backyard. We had sustained wind of 30-35mph and gusts of up to 55 mph. I not only buried those tent spikes but put a couple of bricks to hold the tent down. Didn't help. Other than that, with a little wind, it seems to hold up. Just have to anchor it with some bricks or rocks on the inside. Hope that helps.

No wind noise since they ride pretty low. You can open the sun roof to feel the wind at that point. Mileage.. Since I put them on, I've been carrying my kayak and stuff. Mileage would go down while you carry stuff.. probably not when they are empty.

They're pretty heavy and sturdy, but I think a very high wind might tip it over.

They are light. Wind might not blow them away completely, but I wouldn't be surprised if they shifted a bit, or folded up on themselves. You may want to secure them with something (by placing something like a stone on top). Or, as the other answer mentions, moisten them a bit with some water, and they will get more secure.

Hello Brian: I live in the Desert and it gets pretty windy here. I have not had an issue with the cushions blowing away. However I am about 210lbs and I will tell you that I wish the cushions were a little firmer / thicker. I do love the set and would by it again if I could get a thicker cushion. They really are a great company to do business with. Hope this helps.

They stick very well if you clean the mounting surface very good with alcohol. They actually cut down wind noise.

The balls are very light. Wind would blow them away very easily, probably better for a pool or as we use them in a fountain. Hopefully this helps.

My three sets stay outside and I haven't had any problems with them being blown over. After several storms and windy nights, they are still standing.

Definitely not. I use them in windy, 60's they are not thermal or thick enough.

Yes it will blow out. I use mine in back of horse trailer. Blocked from wind. Love this shower.
