Can it be outside in the rain/snow?

Probably not. I would at least have a piece of plywood with overhangs on all sides to put on top to keep rain and snow off. It is EXTREMELY QUIET 49 Decibels Very Light Easy to start

Yes, and it will even work better in the winter. But, there is no flap to keep bugs out or water if it rained. You would need to protect it from the weather.

Eletronics are water resistant. Yes it can go in the snow. The mechanical parts (axles, gears) will need increased maintenance if you wet them. Search YouTube for videos on snow and water, lot's of people do it, but specific care is needed.

Should be fine if it happens to get wet. I wouldn't leave it in the rain for long though.

It looks like it could withstand an occasional rain or light snow storm. I wouldn't let it sit outside the whole summer without protection, nor let snow pile up around it. Nonetheless, this is just my speculation as I've never had opportunity for it to get rained or snowed upon.

Not easily. It is a good question, though, because the roof will not stand up to large quantities of snow. I don't have to worry about that here in Seattle but you might if you live in other parts of the country.

I have mine under a covered porch so it doesn't get rained on. Unless you get some sealant to coat the top with, I don't think it would hold up too long in the rain/snow. It's fine in the sun, it lets fresh air through. It would probably be fine in windy conditions but it's light enough be be knocked over by a large dog unless it's backed up against a wall. Also, I'm in the pacific northwest so we have an abundance of rainy weather. If you're somewhere with tamer weather, it might be fine in the rain.

Absolutely. I wouldn't leave it out in the rain though the legs are metal they might rust a little.

I would think it would be ok for outside except for snow or extreme heat eg:Phoenix where its 110 or more. The material is foam rubber, hope this helps!

Yes. It can be left outside in all weather. I left mine out all spring, summer and fall and had no issues with the weather.

Certainly. It needs to be protected from the weather... no open rain or snow. Our use is sliding garage doors.

I have not used it outside, I don't think you can't use it outside unless it's covered from the rain

You might get away with having it outdoors and under a carport roof, but it was not made for being in the rain or worse. Even a temperature near freezing might harm it, as might strong sunlight.

This question is older but in case the original poster or someone else still wants an answer: Yes, you can set it up outside in the winter. I would recommend putting a tarp under it to keep the bottom dry. Don't leave it out to get damp. If it does get damp / wet, set it up in your garage or similar covered area and run it till it is dry. You do not want to fold it up and put it away with it being damp. Also, I know this may be obvious, but don't set it up and run it in the rain.

I don't have experience with the snow, but mine is adequate for the rain. I am pleased with this product so far and consider it a small investment to protect my mower.

Yes I have used mine in the rain and in the snow but cold affects battery life

I would not use it outside unless you would take it in when it rains. The bottom is a tray which would catch the rain.
