I use this on my boat house to keep my life jackets so far it does a good job and keep them dry and I have had this for almost 3 years

No there is not. I've had mine for several years, and am on my 2nd one. I have not had any problems from the rain.

I do not know if it is "officially" weatherproof but mine got rained on last September (albeit light rain) and unit was not affected.

I have one on my deck in Oakland, CA...we get rain, but no freezing temps or snow, and it can be quite hot and sunny in the summer. Mine has held up well to that, but I did add more finish to it when I got it. It does not do a good job keeping stuff dry inside...it is very much for storage, looks, and seating - and not for dry storage.

I would say if there is a light mist you will be fine; if its a down pour then expect your stuff to get wet. There are no seals to suggest it's water proof.

No. It's hard to keep things dry when it's raining hard but this box does a good job. You can see in the picture that the top has sides to it that cover the bottom section. It does pretty well at keeping the rain out. I am pleased with it myself.

If you drop it in water, whatever's inside will probably get wet. But from my experience, it'll stand up to rain for a while, but don't expect to stand out in the rain for hours and hours.

I'd say it's resistant but not water proof. I've taken it out in the pouring rain and everything inside has stayed dry, but I'd be afraid to drench it just in case.

I live in Colorado and have had both snow and heavy rain and had no issues. I did built a shelving system inside though just to be safe in the event that water somehow came in the bottom (hasn't happened as of now). I can't speak to wind as I placed the shed right next to the house and it's fairly protected. I will say though that after you get it built and have it loaded with garden stuff it becomes pretty sturdy. Hope that helps.

To the best of my knowledge, it is not marketed as weatherproof so I would keep it protected from the rain.

Depends on what you mean by proof...it does stop splashing of rain from my deck and sun but if it is left in the sun and rain constantly I can see it deteriorating faster. I have loved mine so far with the acception of the bottom rail caps are not in very tight. A little gorilla glue solved that. Hope this helps :)

We have ours set up inside. I would keep it out of the rain. Remember that no matter how weather resistant a company claims something is, nature (weather) will always win. Cheers

No it isn't. It is canvas with no waterproofing that I can tell. We don't get rain here very often, but I did have it out when sprinklers came on and the canvas absorbed the water droplets almost immediately. I expect a hard rain would have soaked it and its contents.

Mine is used indoors so I really can't say. The unit itself would not be affected by rain but the plug and outlet the unit is plugged into may be an issue.

Is this Keter 186300 70 Bench storage "waterproof" ?? I need a box bench that is waterproof, no rain getting in.

The ExpoDisc is not watertight. If you leave it outside over night, you will get condensation in it.

NO rain here at the moments so i took some water and flicked beads of water on the case and it rolled right off and didn't seen to soak in for a minute or so. The rain flap should keep any light rain from entering from the top but there is no waterproof inserts inside the compartment but you might easily add some plastic in there.
