How does this box hold up in winter weather? I am looking to buy something for my deck to hold chair cushions and other summer items in NY.

Although I live in Southern California these boxes seem strong enough to endure your cold weather as well as hold up against the hot sun during the summer months here.

They held up great through an awful winter. I wish they locked but otherwise they hold a lot of stuff and keep it clean and dry

Mine ripped within one year and has become very brittle and hard. I do live in Michigan and we had an excessively cold winter this past year, but I expected this cover to last longer than a year. Two other chair covers purchased from a different company which were exposed to the same weather conditions are fine. They all covered patio furniture on a deck (with a pergola) through the winter.

I have the tables with the frames. In MN they have sat outside all year long (including winter) for 3 years now. No issues. Plus, I have one in the Caribbean - outside in the salt air. No issue there either. I just wish the company would ship to the Virgin Islands, and provide cushion replacements and options for fabric.

I have had mine outside for over a year, and it holds up beautifully. I'm in Kentucky, and we have hot summers and freezing winters, with occasional snow, sleet, etc. It has grated shelving, so water flows through it. I have occasionally put plants on the top shelves and planting materials, including heavy bags of fertilizer and potting soil on the lower shelves. It's been a lifesaver in my small space.

Each side is its own piece and upon arrival, you would assemble the box. That said, I've had it on my deck through winter snows and rainstorms and my cushions remain 100% dry and protected.

I've not had any problem with water entering it in two years (and winters). I store outdoor furniture cushions in it over the winter and they are fine when spring arrives. It shuts tightly, but I've not experienced any mustiness or problems with the things I've stored in it. I'm very pleased with it.

The sandbox is pretty durable and the wood is nice, however it does not come with a wood bottom. It just has a plastic liner that you put the sand in. We ended up going to by a thick piece of plywood and screwed it into the wood so it would be more durable.We live in California so we don't get bad winters. Not sure how it will hold up with rough winters. We also have a covered patio that we put it under to keep it protected. I hope this information helps!

We left ours outside in Ohio through the winter. I was surprised how well it held up through all the snow and ice. There are some evidence of wear but that comes with the elements of being outside. It is small enough that you could bring in the garage in the winter but I do not think that would be nessecary. When it rains sometimes the windows do not shut because the wood expands, but they always go back to normal once it dries up. Good Playhouse for the price.

Mine is on a covered deck where the wind is limited. I have not had a problem but the furniture is pretty light weight. You could add some Velcro to the cushions to try to help keep them in place. If it is a high rise and the wind picks up enough this would not be good up there. The furniture is sturdy but does not weigh a lot.

I purchased this last summer and was also unsure of how it would hold up. I have mine placed in a 3 season room and it is exposed to the elements. It has been snowed on, rained on and had the wind blowing very hard on it. Not sure where you are but here in Michigan, it has been one rough winter with the polar vortex. I must say that I could not be happier with how it looks and functions. We started our spring cleaning and did not see any weather wear on the wood or on the top. It looks just like it did when we purchased it - brand new!! Fabulous piece of furniture!!! Definitely worth purchasing!! I purchased this last summer and was also unsure of how it would hold up.

I have mine on back porch to store pool supplies. I love it! I live in E. Texas, where we do get some freezing weather. It is a sturdy building, so I'm sure it would hold up.

I used my item in the summer rain and it held out good. It was still working when I put it away in November. I would cover it with plastic(a bag) if you plan on using it in the snow,...just to be safe.

We've had the cushions for two summers and they've held up nicely. We have a covered deck, but keep them out all summer long. They are not the thickest cushions available, but they're not the most expensive either. I bought them for the price and the pattern.

I left two outside all winter. We had severe winds often. They are attached to my wood patio awning and a tree. No damage to the wood structure (built like a deck) however one of the shades tore at the corner. The other weathered everything and is still hanging.

I live on L.I., N.Y., we had a horrid winter this year and although the sandbox is 2 years old it is holding strong. No water got in the sand but have to say during our biggest storm with high winds I did put a big flower pot filled with soil on lid. Everything stayed dry, animal free and lid did not crack. 2-3 children play together in it every weekend and love it.
