how does this stand up against wind?

I bought this for my dad about 6 years ago ... it lasted him for about 5 years and he said it worked great! I just reordered a new one for him for Christmas as well as one for myself.

I doubt that it would hold up. I put additional supports from the side supports back to the blower. Used conduit clamps on the side supports and tied them back into the blower frame. Engineer here always tinkering.

I don't think it will. It really doesn't tighten up enough. We ended up sending it back buying the Huscavana model for $159 it is much more rugged and does tighten up. We have a Club Cadet 2 stage and it fits & the light shows through the clear window. Also the Huscavana is longer as far as more coverage for your legs & goes out over you to cover you from the snow. Have you heard of the saying (you get what you pay for) that is so true in this case. Hope this was helpful. Good Luck MW

Have only had winds around 25-30 mph and a fence protecting one side... but so far so good. I have had it set up for over a year and no problems.

I have this on my jeep and I'd say it stands up about an inch and a half above the windsheild

I've only set it up once and it never experienced what I would call strong winds. It did perform admirably in the light breeze that night after I tied it down with the included rope and stakes.

It is not terribly sturdy. there are other alternatives. But then I have kep a 3-bike rack outdoors (not bolted) for the last 20 months, and it has survived 20-30 mph winds.

I would not expect this item to hold up any better in winds than most pop-ups. The top has more surface area than most, so I would expect it to find wind a greater challenge than a cheaper, simpler version.

It stands on its own, but have not experienced any big winds since receiving it. It could easily be staked down via its feet using U stakes.Hope this helps.

For high winds you'll want different pegs (10-12") and additional support lines (there are enough places for you to tie on to on the fly sheet), but I would expect it to hold up fine. I was stuck in a light to moderate windy downpour, and stayed dry.

It stood up well in a night-long rain/snow mix, though I had it covered with a plastic tarp. There was some wind, maybe 15 mph, which is why I used the tarp for warmth. I have not used it in a 30 mph wind.

Very light weight. It does stand up in the wind if you use the supplied pegs or throw your beach baggage, water bottles, or any weight inside it.

It holds up pretty good but if its to windy you can put stakes at the corners of the stand. They come with the umbrella.

Although we did not use the item in strong wind, I can tellyou the frame was sturdy and the stakes included were sturdy as well. Wish I could be more helpful

The cover is fine in the wind. You do need to secure the heater with the cover to something that will prevent it from falling over. I use my fence poll and a single string. Work well for me.

Holds up great to wind. We have it over a pergola. We have had a couple severe thunderstorms come through Virginia with no issues.

We haven't had winds that strong since I installed it but I think it will hold up if installed properly. The anchors seem very well made to me. Hope that helps.

Yes, it is very strong . We used it when it was windy and it was ok and as we can change the position it is very convenient to be able to be protected against the wind
