can this item be used on an outdoor patio??

It would need to be under cover. The base is heavy enough, but I don't see it holding up to "the elements".

maybe if it's screened in. I don't see it holding up after being exposed to the elements....

I don't know....mine is inside. I guess it'd be OK outside as long as it's undercover, & not continuously exposed to direct sunlight.

The base is heavy enough that it won't tip easily but I don't think water would be good for it.

No. I believe it can only be used outside. I've only used it outside and it works great.

Hello,We have checked with the manufacturer and they do not recommend having this outdoors unless they are covered. They may rust if they get wet. If you have some sort of patio covering, where they are under the shade constantly, then it may be alright outdoors. We do apologize we were unable to give you a specific answer. If you need anything else, please let us know.Thank you.

Yes it does - I have had mine for quite awhile now and they are holding up really well - I just use them inside though. Someone had asked if you could use them outside - I would say no unless you had an enclosed patio.

To be honest with you, I don't think I would. It does have some metal objects that may rust and then shorten the life of the shade. I installed mine outside of course but the mount is under the patio overhang to protect it from direct sunlight and water. I'm not an expert this is just my opinion.

I don't see why you couldn't use it outside. It might not hold up as well, but they are not that expensive. If it doesn't hold up to the weather buy a new one.

It is not intended for outside use although it is rated for humidity 20-80% and thus might be able to be used in a covered porch for example. The strict answer is no though.

I don't think it would last very long if it was directly exposed to rain and sun. It would be fine outside under a covered patio.

Only if covered, as under a veranda or covered patio. Otherwise, not waterproof. Hope that helps.

Yes, I use my on the patio. Sounds good. Took it my friends and use it at their pool. Then they went and bought one the next day.

Well, I think it would be fine for outdoor use, IN a covered patio situation. The chair seat covers might not stand up to the weather, even with being in a covered patio situation. But it is of very sturdy construction.

Yes you can use it outdoors. right now I have it in a fountain out side on my patio and works fine.

Sorry, but I would not purchase this for outdoor use unless it is protected by a covering of some sort. I left mine out in the open and it was damaged after it got wet from the rain.

NO! It is not strong enough to withstand weather. It is only for internal (inside buildings, houses, etc) use not for outdoor use.

Yes it can be used, inside and outside. I have mine now out (patio deck) just make sure when it rains you may cover it with its lid otherwise you can leave it open and ready to be used by your pet. Hope this helps.
