Have you covered the bottoms of each leg with rubberized material ? I am using them on a balcony that I hose down with water and it occasionally rains

No I have not covered the bottoms of the legs they get rained on and so far the wood on the bottom is fine.

I am not sure.. I think they are to some degree but I have never gotten rained on while using them.

Possibly, they are hard plastic outside. You could always add a piece of felt or a towel under to protect wood. Otherwise, they are the best knee pads we've found yet [20+ years in the flooring biz] and well worth the money

I would say no. I am going to use these outside outside though and just seal them up with silicone. I am sure the sun is going to eat up the rubber coating quickly. I have tested some outside and put in ziplocks and it worked even when raining. They work but I am not sure how long they will last.

Yes- ours came with rubber covers/stoppers on the legs...100% I am looking at it right now :)

I was in the rain last night and it performed well. I would add this word of caution; Proceed carefully when in slippery conditions and avoid walking in them when you can.

Black waterproof material. Not sure what that material would be called? Not quite rubbery. Not thin mesh? Not quite vinyl? But a sturdy rubberyish under bottom? Hope that makes sense since I had to make up a work for you?

I have mine in somewhat sheltered areas, but yes, the covers are a vinyl type material and should protect plants from rain. I've been using these for quite a few years and the structures hold up very well, but the covers will eventually become brittle with extended exposure to the elements.

I am in the San Francisco area and the last few days we have had a downpour. My cushions are bone dry. I leave the cushions on year round with no issues. Outside appears to be a canvas cover, but inside is vinyl lined. For parties, I just take them off and lay them flat on the ground with no problem. I would not advise crunching them up tightly as that might affect the vinyl liner inside. I have read about one person saying her cushions were ruined, but I have had no problems. I highly recommend these and have ordered several as my preferred replacement choice when others have failed.

Nope. Was a concern. I've asked other people and unless you're in a torrential rain, I hear they are not really needed. It doesn't rain much in southern California. This doesn't foul your leg like the stocker or especially most other heavy breathers.

none that i see, but there is a lot of hard rubber between the wood leg & the floor. you should be good for a long time.

Probably. I would be a little worried about the metal legs if they were in the rain, though.

If it is a large downpour, yes. They are better than most I have seen with repelling the water and drying pretty fast. We try to keep our turned over if we know it is going to rain. I love the ones that I got (floral print)

I've used these on Concrete/Blacktop and Grass , But have not used these in the rain

I've built a protective covering using 4" PVC pipe. I think you really need to keep rain off of this. The lip on the bottom isn't that much of a lip.

Yes we have but I wouldn't leave them outside in the rain. They are very solid

I store them outside underneath a wooden balcony. While the balcony does offer some protection, I am amazed that I never find water in my bins! They look like they shouldn't be waterproof but they have proven to be so!
