I live in Wyoming and we get alot of very strong wind gusts. Is it heavy enough to withstand high winds?

We've definitely had some here in NY since I bought them and they've been great. They are somewhat protected by secured rocks that make up the waterfall though. They are decently heavy and ole profile as well.

It is plenty heavy enough and sits low to the ground as one side is flat. I live in Kentucky and had 3 of them. They work great until it rains. The bulbs short out due to leaks around the rubber seals when they get older. I threw mine away and started using smaller spot lites. Would not give this product any more than 2 stars.

I have not had mine move in high winds but you could also put a landscape fabric staple over the power lead where it leaves the fixture to make sure it does not move anywhere.

We have had these lights for about 6 months and have had noTrouble with them they are quite heavy and unaffected by winds

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

I know what you mean, we used to live in North Carolina and the winds got bad out there. It is not heavy but not light either when I hold it in my hand. I stood up on a scale with it and it weights 5 1/2lbs. Id say it will stay put during regular winds. During bad winds like 40 mph, even our big swing was flying. I really like this crocodile and so do my boys - 4y and 19 m. When only one of them wants to use it, he sits in the middle, both of them on opposite sides, and when a friend comes over, all 3 of them have a seat. I would recommend it because it is not that big or heavy to put it away during high winds, it is very easily wiped clean, nowhere for spiders to make webs, and the handles are smooth, unlike other seesaws on which I red reviews for. The kids have it inside or outside as they please. If you want to, I would set it out front next time its quite windy, which is often on our hill by the ocean here in Hawaii, and Id let you know what it did.

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.

Yes,I live on a mt. top and high winds are common and this model has held up well.We had a 50 mph wind that broke the pole holding our two ant's.and it only did minor damage to the ant.This is a great value for your money .

Yes just be sure you tie it down with tent stakes. I put the hook on the stake right over the side rail. I used 4 stakes. tent has withstood 45 mph winds and many rain storms.

I have used it in breezy conditions (but not heavy winds) and it held up. However, the canopy is quite large and it catches the wind. It will be hard to manage in heavy winds. It is sturdier than most umbrellas sold today.

No. This tent sits securely on its own. We've never used it during a storm or high winds, though.

We have strong winds here in Ct also and it has never blown over. We filled the base with sand and it makes it quite heavy. I need my husband to help me move it. This This is the best birdfeeder I've ever had. Would recommend it to anyone.

I don't think that it would blow away, its pretty heavy. I have it on a Gazebo (nothing under it) and I do not have it tied down. We have some pretty good winds here and it doesn't move.

I did not even use any sand, water or rocks with this board. It is heavy enough to withstand the wind. I never had it blow over even in storms. IF you want to use something, I would use fine sand and use a funnel to get it into the holes, but seriously it withstood lots of wind in N AZ just fine.

If wind gusts are a problem I would set the turbine inside of a screen box so as to limit mother natures ability to whip the turbine. I believe it will handle up to 60 MPH winds if mounted properly.

If you can secure it to whatever you are hanging it from, it should be OK. The ball can withstand the winds but the chain and small hook on the end may not. I don't have high winds but I love this feeder and so do the birds!

Ironically, we have had very high winds with storms over the past two days. No problems with the cover what so ever.Works like a charm.

Although we did not use the item in strong wind, I can tellyou the frame was sturdy and the stakes included were sturdy as well. Wish I could be more helpful

we can have heavy winds where I live. I have had no problems with wind opening my gate. It works great after about 8 months. The only thing I need to do is make sure everything is tightened down (nuts and bolts) on a regular basis as it shares in the instructions.

I haven't used it in heavy winds, but it feels pretty darned sturdy to me! This is a great umbrella.

I haven't used it in heavy wind but I don't think any umbrella is good in heavy wind. The way it is made, it should be good for wind but, again, I don't know about heavy wind.
