Is this product heavy? We live on the top floor of our building in Chicago. Some nights the wind can whip across so we want a secure product

No, the product is not heavy at all. You should have no problem taking it upstairs in between two people. The chairs are also extremely light.

The table top is glass, so it makes it heavy. However, the chairs are on the light side (for me, that's a plus, i hate moving bulky chairs). We've had the set for over a year now, and it can get pretty windy on our Florida patio, did not have an issue with it. We absolutely love the set and received many compliments on it!

We have fairly strong winds too, but the mesh was thinner than I expected and ended up doubling up the mesh. This worked for me and as long as you tie it up well it should hold up. It's not very porous so it should hold the dust back, but again, you'll likely have to double it up. I hope this helps.

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.

I luv it. Very sturdy.we get severe winds and it doesn't phase it. I also like how it has a extra piece to make the holder tsller if you want.

Well, we keep it inside or on the front porch but it has a decent amount of weight to it. I live in the Texas Panhandle, where it's also extremely windy and it's heavier than some of the toys we have outside which don't blow away!

Probably yes too thick. Also if it is windy, this thing will collapse. This is more of an indoor thing, or maybe a sheltered porch.

It is a heavy stand and should work OK for unspecified values of "normal" breezes. I would not presume to speculate about high-wind conditions.

It is heavy. I don't think you can have any problem with them if it is kind of windy outside. But I don't know how windy could be in your area. haha. The quality is very good and considering the price, I am very happy with them.

Yes, it is very strong . We used it when it was windy and it was ok and as we can change the position it is very convenient to be able to be protected against the wind

It will do OK in wind. My previous one was anchored to the ground by burying the feet and held up OK in 70 MPH gusts. heavy snow can be a problem as they get older and the tarp starts to sag a little. I tend to go out with a broom and bump off the snow from the underside if we get more than an inch or so.

I would say that's correct. Plenty heavy. We had a 70 mph wind this week and no issue.

Holds up great to wind. We have it over a pergola. We have had a couple severe thunderstorms come through Virginia with no issues.

Ours is sturdy and has never fallen, however, it never encounters wind. It stands on shiny, slippery tiles and gets bumped every day by people passing by and adjusting it. As was stated by someone else, stability is determined by keeping the panels folded, i.e., at 90 degree angles, bunched together. We learned from previous experience with screens -- if you over-extend the screen, it will fall when bumped; folded/bunched, ours never falls.

I have been in 2 thunderstorms with some winds and it has held up. I used the 4 corner stakes, 4 rope tie stakes provided which are attached, and I use an extra top tarp over the back of my truck where I sleep anchored with bungee cords to my roof rack and then anchored to front of Coleman Screen room with bungees for extra water protection. Without proper securing I'm sure it would fly in the wind as it is very light weight. I love this product but for camping long term and to endure all weather conditions which may arise I do secure it very well.

It is the ideal weight for us. Our apartment is heavily heated in winter and not air conditioned in the summer. We are very pleased with it year round.

It's not heavy, but it is dense. I think it depends on your indoor temp. If you keep your thermostat as high as 70, IMO it would be too hot. We've had a COLD winter (Chicago), and it's been great, but I expect to put it away for summer. I don't have it in a cover, just under one. Sorry.

Hi we live in Portland Tx, Spring and Summer can be very windy here, 3 corners are anchored to the house and one on Post cemented and then anchor to a tree otherwise the post will bend, hardware used ( steel cable, turnbuckles, anchor mounts) bought at lowes... Haven"t had any issues so far, great shade cover.
