Has anyone who owns this every tested its waterproof integrity?

I went from Missouri to florida back in March with this. Nit only did I run into snow and ice. We had severe thunderstorms coming and going and everything stayed dry. I was quite impressed with how well it kept everything dry, and how much room it had. We were able to put extra illows and blankets that weren't needed.

I bought it within the last year and have had no problems with it. Guess I should check it for the defects you mentioned.

Ive had 2 of these over 2.5 years now. Definetly not "waterproof" However a silicone bead around exterior seams does make it last a while.

To be honest I'm not certain. I've never dropped it in water or tested its water resistance. The battery compartment seems pretty watertight though. Sorry I couldn't help you out. -J

Mine passed the water test. And I've dropped it a handful of times with no issues. So far so good. I'm happy with it. Only down side is my car charger didn't fit.

I wouldnt suggest testing it in water to see how well it is. The piece to cover the charger didnt fit well on mine and it wouldve gotten damaged if i tested it. Buying a $20 waterproof case might be a better choice.

I've owned one since june of 2013, I'm on the Ocean every weekend and no less than twice a week. Iv been caught in the rain and had plent of salt water splash on the Standard Horizon unit with no issues. I wouldn't throw it over board and try to use it after but its worked well for me here in Maine.

I haven't had it submerged in water but I I have been in heavy rain and it worked just fine. But nothing is waterproof. it is very hard for the water to get in. Worth every penny!!!!!

No. And it is not completly waterproof either. It was billed as a comparable version of a life proof at a better price. It looks like it but doesn't really function like one.

Water resistant is not the same as water proof. Common sense says not to submerge any electronics in water even if using a water-proof case. I've gotten mine wet from rain and mud but not dropped it in a toilet, for instance.

I haven't, but I wouldn't recommend it. I would lightly hand wash it. My concern would be that running it through the wash my degrade the waterproof material or coating.

I have not dropped mine in water and only handled with damp hands so not fully tested by me concerning waterproof.

Mine is very waterproof, as I swim with mine. Reception is not fabulous but could get quite a few stations.

I used mine right out of the box but have yet to go swimming with it. Not sure it's waterproof!
