Does this get water inside when it storms? Or is it sealed fairly well?

Mine has never had water get inside. It may help that it's up against my shed, but it stays dry.

Mine stays 'completely' dry.... I like my shed very much. I was able to install some "S" hooks to hang a few tools and it turned out great. I would recommend this shed to anyone.... Good luck Tom

I'd recommend purchasing a roll of the rubber weather strip you can find at hardware stores if you get some heavy rainstorms where you live. If you step inside the unit you'll see some light shining in small areas and that's where I would add the weather strip. Otherwise in areas with light showers like we get in San Diego-- I'd say it would be fine without the added weather strip.

It is pretty water tight. WE have had only one rain since I installed them a couple of months ago. The three wall panels click together and are secured by the roof and base. I don't have the hand strength I used to have and felt I did not press the walls together completely and did not hear a click sound. I did get them pressed together sufficiently for the roof and base to fit securely. I think the units are well made and Amazon's price with free shipping is good value. I recommend the units and would buy more.

I kept mine out over the winter. We had a couple of heavy snowstorms. Not a problem. As far as rain, airtight so far -- have had it about a year.

We have gotten a lot of rain and it has not leaked. Sorry, but that is the best answer I can give, but it is a very cute and well built house.

I'm in Michigan and it has remained dry inside after rain and snow..no leaks through the roof. You need to make sure it is slightly higher than surrounding terrain in order to prevent water from coming in at the floor.

Absolutely. I've had in during some hard rains and zero leakage. Now what this isn't is airtight. So if you're in a humid place, moisture will get to whatever you're stashing. But as far as rain and water, yes it's waterproof.

The top does not allow water into the unit. The bottom however is slated and rain bounces off the deck and gets inside. Quick answer is, whatever is inside will get wet.

Mine folds out into four pieces. It's watertight except with one small space that sometimes gets water, but I think that's because I didn't install it correctly with the spacers. It's usually no more than a few drops after a bad storm.

I haven't had it long enough for leaks/mildew but two major rain storms and a recent snow storm with single digit temps, it's holding up well. As I mentioned in my review, I did get some water on the floor that was pushed in by the wind. So far so good.

No it's not water proof I have water all inside the housing from driving thru a rain storm and hasn't dried yet

I did use it once when it was raining and the water did not leak through. Hope this helps.

The exterior is not waterproof but because the inside is I have never had an issue and it has been soaked.

If your asking if you can submerge this box, no the lid will leak. If your asking if it keeps the rain off your tools, yes it does. The only problem when using it in the rain is that the recessed portion fills up with water. Its a good box for the price, the side latches are weak, plan on them breaking within a few years if using daily.

Well Ron, I live in California so the most weather it has had to hold up against is some wind and a little bit of rain, both of which it handled just fine. It does however build up condensation and drip on whatever you have stored inside. Hasn't been a big problem for me but it should be considered. I hope this helps.

The roof does not cover the floor, the floor sticks out a few inches further. So if it rains you will get water inside. It is only a sun and wind shelter, not rain

Yes the inside is dry. We have had a number of days with a lot of rain and there is no water inside

It does surprisingly well, however it probably won't keep your dog dry during the rain if that is what you are looking for. We took this camping with us last summer and we had some pretty nasty storms come through with potential for tornados. We didn't take the time to take down the tend and it was still standing with no damage the next morning. It was wet on the inside because it doesn't have a door and there are "air slits" on the other 3 sides.

Yes it looks like it would withstand the rain. Every thing looks to be sealed. Hope thid helps.
