waterproof? The description says it resists mildew etc, so is it waterproof/ resistant?

this fabric allows rainwater through it, only made to cut make the intensity of the sun..

I don't keep mine moist. I hang it and let it dry (as stiff as a board) because I was afraid of the mildew threat also. I just soak mine to death in warm water before I use it. Its been going strong for a couple years now ans still looks like new. ** And my husband is not gentle on this when he wrings it out either!

Water resistant...and I mean very resistant..Waterproof, I haven't been in a downpour with it so can't say. But in drizzle all stayed dry

I use my everyday during Cross Country season and the only time i ever encountered mildew was when i left just a little watter on the bottom, completely sealed, and left it there for a little under a week. So, Yes, it does mildew.. but not easily. Just clean it and you'll be good

Yes, it is waterproof and apparently it does - I have had it on my Yamaha Majesty for quite a while with no mold build-up in a very humid area

The curtain is waterproof, but i use a liner to keep the curtain in good shape. i can through a liner out if there is mold or mildew or soap scum on it.

Not sure on mildew, but most definitely NOT fade resistant, I live in SC and keep the hammock outside maybe half the time....not nearly the color it was new...but there is no mildew smell or staining and it has been out through several storms

To be honest, in the description it does say weather resistant.......I would imagine that might include moisture to a lesser extent, but I wouldn't let it get to wet from splashing. I'm not an authority on this subject but it's usually prudent to keep it as dry as possible. I wish I could be more helpful.

It's not completely waterproof. It breathes enough that my bike feels somewhat damp after it's been covered all day during a rainstorm, but there are no puddles under the cover.I don't leave the cover on for longer than ten hours at a time, though (just at my place of employment during the day) so I don't know if you'd have a mold problem if the bike was covered for long periods.

No it is not. It keeps leaves and dirt off and is water resistant. Water has not only come through mine but the covers have completely mildewed and are disgusting now. I am throwing them away and I am very disappointed, they are heavy, maybe too heavy as they are very, very difficult to fold up and move.

No, I have used these for years and I always wring it out and store it wet in the tube it comes with and it won't mildew. Since it's stored moist, it's ready to use quickly and for small touch ups or to clean the windshield. I had one get mildew and that was only when I tried to wash it once with an alcohol-based product (I really don't recommend that!)

Hello! It is fully waterproof for versatile use: Enjoy the bath or shower and clean easily. Hope this helps!

Hi Alli, thank you for your inquiry. Our covers are not waterproof, but rather are highly water resistant. We do not manufacture, nor do we recommend completely waterproof covers as they do not allow for proper airflow throughout the cover which in turn can cause mold and mildew to form. If there is anything else that we can assist you with, please let us know.

It is water resistant. I do not believe it is water proof. I've brought it out in the rain and snow and it stayed dry. So no it is not water proof just water resistant.

It is somewhat waterproof. I wouldn't go swimming with it but certainly having a shower so far it's ok. Haven't had any issues with taking a shower with it!

No, I don't think it makes it water resistant, just conditions and protects the wood as you continue to use it. It's a process you have to repeat regularly.

I was also considering this product for keeping rain out but if it doesn't do that I won't bother... Anybody had any experience with rain? Is it actually waterproof?
