How waterproof is this if it's made of canvas? I need something that can be put on wet sand and not leak at all. Would this stand up to that?

Sorry, I cannot answer your question. I returned the bag because when I received it and took it out of the package it had an awful odor.

i have used this bag at the beach frequently since I bought it and have never had any trouble with it, even when a wave hit it because I had my chair in the water.

It is more like a heavy plastic. I have used it at the beach many times and it keeps everything dry and still looks like the day I bought it. A very good buy for the money.

Wouldn't say it is waterproof, it's more water resistant. I haven't had it in the rain for long periods but did accidentally spill water on it, the contents got damp. Hope the info was helpful!

It is waterproof . My husband also sprayed a water repellant fabric spray on it too, for good measure.

I wouldn't describe it as cheap plastic at all. I believe it's canvas if a sort. It's a quality product, good seams, good construction. I have a bow rider and when we get rain here it rains fast. I probably had a couple hundred pounds of water in the front section and it didn't leak at all. Had to siphon the water out as it was too heavy to try and just push out by hand. Also the straps are attached well as they've never given up even with that much weight.

The fabric is fairly water repellent but probably not fully waterproof. It's a nylon fabric, coated on the inside with something shiny. I bought it for using in a tiny town in Mexico and left it there, so I can't look at it now. The top of the fabric bag has a drawstring and it has a flap over that so I'm sure that unless you're in a monsoon, it'd keep at least most of the water out.

Our daughter used it on the beach with good results. I'd say water resistant, not waterproof.

It can probably keep out sand if it was completely zipped. It doesn't seem as if it was waterproof--maybe water resistant, but I definitely wouldn't expect it to resist more than a few drops of water.

I use the canvas topper all the time. Its a bit of a struggle to put on due to the elastic but you do need a tight fit so it's worth it. It's not that bad at all. I also sprayed my canvas "box" and top with several layers of water repellent over the course of a week when I first got it "just for the heck of it" since most of my grocery shopping (the main use of the trailer) is a few miles away from my home and here in Florida, the rain can come and go without any prior warning.

It's definitely water resistant and washable, but since it has a non-adhesive backing, it won't protect you from a serious leak as water can get underneath it along the edges.

Yes, its waterproof. I have had it outside for months, no leaks or water problems.

It is not waterproof, it is like a heavy mesh or screen and intended to provide shade only. Look at fabrics for awnings, those are more like a canvas and are usually waterproof.

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 feels like a nice thick canvas and it is lined in plastic so it should be water resistant. It's definitely not a flimsy cloth- should last a long time. I love it!

I have only used mine in dryer climates, but it is a sturdy canvas. I would not expect it to prevent water from seeping through in a heavy downpour, but in misty or slightly rainy weather, it should be fine. I'm sure there are products out there to make it even more water resistant if you are often in inclement weather.

The outside is canvas so it is water repellent to a point. The inside liner is nylon on the outside and a soft clothe on the inside. Throwing it in a lake or being stuck outside more than 10 minutes in a down pour could allow water in. I never trust anything that says water proof so I always bring individual plastic bags for camera, lens etc. if there is any chance of moisture. It also helps to bring a small soft towel. Have not been in any rain or water rides with this.Still, for the price it is an awesome bag.

I have it covering a Gazebo on my patio, doesn't leak in the gazebo, guess that makes it waterproof, stays dry.

It is porous. Air is able to move through the fabric. It was beautiful new. However, my personal experience in north florida, on the georgia line, it lasted less than one summer. For whatever reason the fabric completely disintegrated!!! COMPLETELY , to nothing. No idea what happened. Full sun midday and shade late in the day. But to further answer your question. No. This is not water proof.
