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.

Ours are in the ground right now with about 26" of snow on them, we can see them burning brightly through the snow. This is our second year with them, but the first year where they are under snow for over a month. I am guessing they would survive your snow as well. You could just turn them off if the amount of snow is too much, but I wouldn't pull them out of the ground.

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.

I don't know how they are rated, but I have had them out in my Hawaii lanai (covered patio) for 1.5 yrs with no issues.

I'm sorry, they are not constructed for outdoor use. Thanks for the question. ted

I have only had mine on a porch but from what I have experienced I believe they would hold up quite well completely exposed to the elements.

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.

Yes and no. I wouldn't recommend them on grass as they would slide on you. If on concrete or other, they should be fine but don't expect to body slam people on these as they aren't super thick. And like the other said, I'd take them in every time. Rain is not your friend.

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

I use them on my outdoor patio. For that purpose, so far they are fantastic.

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

I have two. They sit on concrete pavers and I have not used them yet. Good question.

If they are good batteries they should last a year or more, very easy to hang very soft nice light glowing colorsI 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�

Hello,We have checked with the manufacturer and they do not recommend having this outdoors unless they are covered. They may rust if they get wet. If you have some sort of patio covering, where they are under the shade constantly, then it may be alright outdoors. We do apologize we were unable to give you a specific answer. If you need anything else, please let us know.Thank you.

I've used mine outdoors on a number of occasions around a table for a picnic on a concrete patio. They worked fine. I would definitely bring them back inside after each use, though.

These are not protected from rain etc., and so are not rated for outdoor use. However wrapping them in permanent watertight plastic, AND with necessary draining hole or provision IN THE BOTTOM should make them usable outdoors.

Nope. I wouldn't use them outdoors. Oh and they do work but they are a little flimsy.
