Is it water tight to be left outside in the rain?

It is as long as the lid stays on. The lid overlaps the box so no water gets in unless the lid flies of in the wind. It is a great roomy box but the lid will fly off if there is nothing on top of it. It needs a latch, poor design but great box.

It is generally okay. We keep ours on a hot porch and the top has warped which is disappointing. But even with that, it generally keeps the water off the cushions we store in it.

The official word from the manufacture is "water tight". I wouldn't drop it in the lake just for fun, but holds up to nasty weather just fine.

Basically the answer is no because there are no seals to prevent water from getting in. It could be considered water resistant if rain is falling down on it with the lid closed, but not if water is sprayed sideways onto it where water can get under the lid.

As long as you use liquid-tight conduit and fittings, it is fine to leave it in the elements. I modified a large plastic irrigation valve box to cover mine though. I can never hurt to keep water out.

As long as it is pulled tightly, it keeps my patio dry. Mine has been up through many showers and the patio underneath had stayed fairly dry. Of course, it does get wet around the edges when the wind blows the rain under. Also, you need to be sure to have it tilted slightly to let the rain run off.

The unit is weather resistant so it should be fine in normal rain, but it is not water-proof, so it obviously shouldn't be submerged.

No not really. It covers the speakers and the earphone jacks so rain won't get In but the rubber between the top and bottom is not very good. Does not give a good seal so water will get in.

Absolutely. I've had in during some hard rains and zero leakage. Now what this isn't is airtight. So if you're in a humid place, moisture will get to whatever you're stashing. But as far as rain and water, yes it's waterproof.

Yes, its water tight. There is a rubber seal. I submerged it overnight and no water got in. I own a bunch of them.

Yes,you can leave it out in the rain on, works fine. But you should put it away for winter before it freezes.

No. It is not watertight. It has no rubber seals to prevent water from entering it if you held it under water. But it would probably keep light rain out if exposed. And if it is under a car you should have no problem unless you drive through deep water or shoot water under pressure directly on it.

No but it is not water tight. Mine has been out all summer, rain or shine and it does not fill up.

The cover has been water tight for me. Living in Phoenix, we do not get much rain but when we get it is very heavy.

Dear customer, if it is caught in the rain, I ensure it is OK. But if you want to use it Underwater diving, I think it doesn't.

Rainproof:yes. Waterproof: I don't know. Overall, it depends on how long you are in the rain. If you are caught in the rain for about an hour to two hours then you have nothing to worry about. But if you are in the rain for more than 5 hours then of course you and almost everything in your bag might get wet

I would say it'd be ok in the rain. But I don't know about full submersion. It is a two piece unit, meaning that the front piece is screwed onto the back leaving a seam that runs the parameter of the unit. It fits tightly, but no indication whether that seam is water resistant or not.

We have ours outside "sort of" protected from the rain. Works like a charm (so far--had it over the winter).
