Can it remain outside in new england winters ?

James,I would give it one winter before the welds would give. As I didn't keep this item, I am speculating. Save yourself the aggravation and money and buy an alternative.

Actually, so far I have not put it outside, my plan is to do so, it will get more rustic I believe in time. Physical problems have kept me being unable to place it yet, but that is why I purchased it, for outside use. Sorry I could not help you at all in regards for outside use, however, I still plan on doing so! p

I bring mine in during the winter months. It was outside for 1 summer and now has a different appearance than when I first bought it. Its more of a dirty rust now. Can't imagine what a winter would do to it. I live in WI. and we have some pretty harsh winters. I guess it's your call!

i'm not sure if it could withstand harsh winters. it's metal but not hefty at all. i returned the ones i purchased because i didn't feel they could stand the out doors near chicago.

I didn't put them out til Spring...but it was a cold Ohio Spring. I think they would be fine..just make sure you drill holes in them for drainage. They look really nice.

Hi....I live in Michigan (brrrrr) and with the winter we had, this urn came through just fine. (Thankfully it doesn't crack like my ceramic ones).It did turn a "gold-ish" color since I purchased it (early last fall). I do not like that. I preferred the brownish-darker color. And yes, it does have a drainage problem. You do have to drill holes in it or else it "leaks" through the cracks. Hope this helps.

It does not lock but other than that seems to be well constructed, time will tell if it survives a new England winter.

It can, I wouldn't leave it outside overnight though. If it's a nice day it should be fine and you can brush off any dirt that might get on it. It's really warm inside once the door flaps are closed.

While it can withstand snow, as it melts it will go right through. I keep mine on all year as it keeps away most spring to fall debris and add a winter cover on top of it. I love this cover.. great purchase.

snow won't hurt it, but it a mesh screen-like material, so rain and snow would go right thru it!

I'm hoping yes. This is my tree's first winter...in the garage in New England. That's about the temp of my garage too. It's supposed to be fine, but we'll see in a couple months.

Mine was kept outside in Kentucky winters and it has faired well. It was covered by porch though.

Yes. Ours was left outside with cover thru brutal northeast winter and it held up beautifully.

Mine has held up well in NW corner of NJ. We had below zero weather snow, ice and rain and it did OK.

maybe under a covered porch. depending where you live, you may not want to leave it out during winter

I doubt it's ability to withstand significant snow and will be taking it down in the winter. Otherwise, I'll keep it up most of the year.

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.

We don't have snow down here, but it is heavy nylon shell and I imagine you could. Don't know if you could control it though.

I have left mine out many years and it worked fine. Sometimes it would get covered with snow. It rarely gets into the teens here in Norfolk Va. But it does go below freezing a lot.

Yes but does not work well if you are trying to use it outdoors in cold weather.

I suppose you could try to put it on the outside, but my guess is that the weather would take it down for you after a while. I put it on the inside, and it works just great.
