The product description states "resistant to rain". Is this the same as waterproof ? Can you leave it on the grill at all times?

Our light stays on the BBQ at all times, although we keep it covered during summer (most of the time) and under the patio cover in the winter. It seems pretty sturdy. Batteries don't last a long time, though.

mine stays on grill all the time. I have grilled in the rain and the light is fully functional. I do cover my grill (and light) when I am not using the grill.

Yes you could leave it on the grill all the time I have since I've installed it a few years ago works really good too! Now about waterproof one time i forgot to cover my grill after using it and that night it sprinkle and it still works.

I leave mine outside, but it's under the cover for the grill. It sometimes gets a little damp, but not super wet. Seems pretty durable but I don't know.

I do leave it in the rain when I forget to put the cover. This is a very well built product.

No, it is water resistant, not water proof. It can handle rain and sweat but not being submerged

I have had mine rained on a few times with no problems. Although its not recommended to leave out in the rain. Hope this help! P.S. this is the best smoker I have ever had!!

I would call it water resistant, not waterproof. Its made to withstand rain, snow etc.

the cover for the grill is a non treated canvas with weatherproof backing on the inside. So kinda....wouldn't 100% consider it waterproof.

I have had mine for over a year now and have never experienced any water leaking into the grill. I have a heavy grill cover for it which does its job of keeping the grill dry. At most when it rains some water gets around the wheels but that dries off pretty quickly. I think it's one of the better investments I have made and am very pleased with it. Good luck.

I'm not sure but I wouldn't risk getting too wet. I'm sure a little rain is ok. We grilled in a light mist and it was fine. Usually when we grill we have an umbrella, but if you are wanting to set it down on a shelf beside the grill I would recommend putting a bowl or something over it, to keep it dry.

No. Its not waterproof. You can see a black speaker below the grill and nothing in between. Brgds

I only used it when it was raining lightly so I believe it is water resistant but not sure if it's water proof.

It is not waterproof or resistant, but it is very well made. I have used it outdoors many times without incident. Humidity is not a problem, I live in South Florida, but I would not want it to get soaking wet.

It is touted as "rain resistant" NOT rain proof nor water proof. We keep ours on the front porch which is open to blowing rain and no problems. I think if one left it out in a 2 or 3 inches of rain day it could be affected. So No its not waterproof, just water resistant per the manufacturers instructions.

I would definitely categorize it as a water resistant as opposed to waterproof. I did primarily purchase it for the side of my outdoor bbq pavillion to extend the room when it rains. The water does bead up on it nicely and roll right off the top. The company recommends nor using it in heavy rain. It works nicely with light to moderate rain thus far. It also dries rather quickly. So far so good.

It is not intened to be in the rain, however, it was snowing hard the last 2 times when I used it and I put a garbage bag over the top portion only. It was not mentioned in the manual but I felt it would not be a problem as long as I did not block the venting. In short, it was fine and I was not concerned about it causing damage. I would discribe the smoker as water resistant but best not to leave outside for long periods.

No, it is not waterproof or even resistant. The lining is a thin mesh fabric. If you are considering this purchase at all for keeping bugs away, I highly recommend this product. We use ours regularly for BBQ and it keeps away all the pesky bugs that come with living in the south!

I've used it in the rain with no problems. I wouldn't stick it under water or anything, but if it gets some water on it it should be fine.

I have used it in a driving rainstorm for more than 6 hours with no issue so I would have to say yes it is water resistant

If I'm not mistaken, I believe I did read that somewhere that it is but I cannot find the documentation I had with it. However, I believe it would be waterproof in a light rain. I do not believe it would be water proof in a heavy rain. It also does not have a floor in it so when the ground around it gets wet, that would eventually seep into the "dry" ground area under the "tent".
