We'll this is a Japanese juniperSo google that along with care tips etc.. Some say to shield the tree from freezing temps. Try and keep it cool in winter so it can hibernate.. I've had it for a year already and looks great! Survived my college dorm last winter. Hopefully it'll survive the winter. I'll keep it outside until it dips below freezing

So far, it's lasted outside past few weeks in jersey in the cold no problem. It's a small worthy investment. Can't hurt to try it out. Do research on the specific species of the tree for the most accurate info.

To be honest, I'd buy one at a store. I bought this as a present for my husband, and it died shortly after he got it.

I live in the midwest and have worn this coat into temps down to -10, -25 with the wind chill. Without wind, keeping lightly active (walking my dogs), wearing layers beneath it, and staying out of the direct wind, I have been kept comfortably warm. If you are more active (skiing or snowshoeing) you should stay quite warm. The jacket does not block wind very well, so if you are in windy conditions I do not think it would be enough unless you wore some sort of windbreaker over it, but I'm not sure about trying to fit it under something else. I have worn a thick wool sweater under it without any problems. I live in the midwest and have worn this coat into temps down to -10, -25 with the wind chill.

I would say no... It's not full tanged but if your looking to do some type of martial arts using weapons I would suggest cold Steel Kahana practice

Whatever floats your boat Ryan, be at the gym or at your dorm. Living here in Upstate NY, winters are sometimes not conducive to driving 5 miles to a health center, since we live in the country. Therefore this Home Gym suits our needs, especially during those wintery times. Good luck.

Im in chicago and last winter was very cold i was very warm in -15 F. When i shoveled snow it got really warm. So it really depends on how much activity you plan on doing in it.

I live in NC and the winters are more sever than most northerners think. At times it gets down into the high teens at night and is below freezing and into the high 20s quite frequently. I have lift my little giant out all winter but it is submerged partially in water that was not frozen, and it still works fine.

I started cool weather seeds this week (lettuce,spinach,peas). I'll start other plants probably next week. I watch how cold it will get overnight. If it stays above 32, I figure most seeds will be ok. By the time the little shoots have started coming up, it will be staying warmer at night. I'll bring in geraniums and pansies in the next week or two. I've been in the greenhouse the past few evenings and it is still pretty warm. I always go by Zone 4 for Colo. And I always try to pick perennials that are native to this area. You can't go wrong with any of them. They take the cold weather better. It's always trial and error with these little grow house. Good luck and thanks for asking!

What state you live? I am for south jersey and its real cold in winter, so would like to know the performance of this product in cold weather state

Probably better than warm packy snow. Should work well. I am very eased with them

This is my first winter and, so far, the cover is holding up well. However, I live in Northern California and the temperatures are relatively mild.

It's up year round here, but no snow. It handles wind with no issue. But I don't think I'd leave it up for snow.

So far the coldest it has gotten where I live is low 50's and has stuck with no problems. I don't know about the winter yet, but don't foresee an issue.

I use it for auto racing in the summer months, so I have no experience with it in very cold conditions.

We do get freezing temps here, and occasional snow. This is outside in our boat that just has an ordinary boat cover on it, and it has been working really well. The boat used to get so wet inside during the off season that we always were getting mildew in it. We are very happy with this purchase!

I think you will be fine. I take just the cylinder off during the winter (very simple and easy to do on my cold frame) because i don't think it would take the brutal NY winter. Not knowing much about your conditions, i would expect that AZ in winter is similar to NY in spring when i start my plants. There are nights that go below freezing and I've never had an issue.

I haven't taken it outside yet since its winter where I live, its good for a beginner since its soo durable if u hit something, but try not to hit too many things lol
