Would these last outdoors in a backyard? I was thinking of placing these over pavers.

I don't think so. We keep ours folded up and then open it up when my daughter wants to practice. They don't look made for outdoor use...especially if you are planning on keeping them outside.

I would NOT place this directly on any surface outside. But my daughter loves to take it outside. So we allow it on the GRASS only ... with something underneath to protect the plastic from rocks or sticks. I would suggest large towels or a plastic tarp to preserve the plastic coating.

I would not recommend keeping them outside. I have used mine outdoors and brought them back in when finished, but I don't think it would hold up if permanently left outside.

I have to agree with the other respondents in that I would not expect these speaker to last with any outdoor exposure. I do in fact love these speakers and have them in two rooms currently and plan to expand to a whole-house. Completely indoors. I do have the external Yamaha Speakers which have served me well over the past few years. They are mounted in a case which may not give you the appearance you're going for. But no, these guys would not do well in an outdoor environment.

No, these are not rated for outdoor use. If you have any other questions just let us know!

No...Don't use outdoors. The shade is not heavy duty....I think outdoor weather might ruin them.

No. They are NOT made for outdoor use. One would have to find a way to protect them from the elements which, since they are large, would not be practical. However, I'm sure it COULD be done, with some ingenuity. Hope this helps.

I don't think it would last very long if it was directly exposed to rain and sun. It would be fine outside under a covered patio.

As long as they're not directly exposed to the rain or snow I wouldn't see why not. Temperature changes and moisture would probably cause some harm but my guess is that they'd last at least several years. If in doubt buy outdoor speakers.

they would be suitable for outdoor use but do not have holes on the bottom for drainage. If putting out not covered by a roof line then I would suggest drilling some holes in the bottom. I use mine outside under a covering with succulents in them and bring them in in the winter months. I originally used them for a s'mores bar at our wedding. They had pea gravel and sterno in them for people to roast their marshmallows with. They look very nice!!!

I haven't figured that one out yet, my speakers are new and I mounted mine under the eaves of my patio to keep them out of the weather. Supposedly they hold up well but I wouldn't recommend putting them directly in the path of bad weather and rain.

Mine are outside under a covered deck so I can't attest to how they would hold up otherwise. That said some of the reviews on Amazon are from people who have installed them in unprotected outdoor areas with no problems. Yamaha states they are designed for use in exposed outdoor areas. For the price I would risk it. I truly believe they would be OK. Hope this helps. Carl

If they are good batteries they should last a year or more, very easy to hang very soft nice light glowing colors I had about 12 of them in my backyard last year, from an awing you might have to use a flexible wire to make a good hook connection however, if a storm comes up with high winds I would take them down or heavy snow The glass panel is easy to wipe off with a soft cloth or I use my finger&#127803;

I supposed they could be installed under pavers. But I don't believe they generate enough heat to warm the pavers.

I think they would look great at an outdoor bar area, but I would make sure they do not get exposed to rain. I don't think they would hold up very well. They are meant for indoor use.

Not sure pal nothing lasts forever but if u protect them maybe they will serve your purpose good luck!They are great speakers and i left them outside all year hot and humid cold and snowy 5' feet still works great with no show of wear.

Yes I think they stated they were ok for outdoor. We have used them outdoors for lighting a lawn area but take them in after the event

I would guess they would not hold up in outdoor conditions. I bet they would peel over time.

I bought this as a gift and when I forwarded them your question, here's the response I received: I doubt it's meant for outside use. I think it wouldn't last too long. Hope this helps!
