How durable is it when use in winter with snow

We didn't have much snow last so yet in Tennessee, but it held up fine in freezing temps!

Not sure about the snow, but I live on the gulf coast and mine is holding up pretty good! It is heavy duty and it is very nice, the picture doesn't do it justice!

I live in Northern Ontario. I've had two bad winters with this top and there doesn't seem to be a problem at all with the snow. I do remove the snow before I drive it and on occassion, when it's sitting in the driveway. The top still looks brand new and it is still very tight.

have had one similar for two years in NC, holds up well no complaints, as with all snow shovels, after 50 some years in the Northeast, if the ground under the snow is rough and or rocky, with enough force it will not last long.

I thought it was adequately heavy duty. It's not like you're going to be able to rip it off from under a ton of snow, but it worked well for us. No snags or unusual tears. Got several seasons under our belts with this. No issues so far.......

It is sturdy and well-made. I have not had mine through a winter, but I don't think I would leave it outside with water in it - - anything might crack if it freezes where you live.

Honestly I can't say exactly but it helped me dig myself out of some snow a few times and it was loads of snow. I don't see it breaking any time soon.

I am using it indoor. Not sure whether it can resist the cold weather or not.

We just got ours 2 weeks ago, but were very pleased with how sturdy it is, I think it will hold up for years to come. And yes I think it would handle the snow no problem. It's also very spacious for a 2 to 4 bird coop, we are very impressed with the house.

Have used in the the Winter weather in MN, since Dec 2102. Has been very effective, held up to wind, snow, rain and has not faded being outside 24x7.

We are currently going through winter, and we had no issues with it. The few times my children have used it worked just fine.

We only have the shovel for a few months. We used it through 3 snow storms. So far, it seems to be holding up pretty well. It has not chipped.

Well we don't really have snow where I am but we do leave it out in the weather, hot and cold, rain etc and there are no real problems. The frame is a strong PVC like they use in industrial pipes and the net is a well made nylon material. We have had it outside now for about 9 months and there are no signs of any wear. When the net does start to wear, you can buy replacement ones.

I bought it and it is great. Very heavy duty and survived the winter beautifully. And we live in Michigan and had 10 feet of snow. Really glad I bought it.

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.

Good question, but I'm not the one to ask unfortunately. I purchased it in the fall and it been freezing and cold here in the N.E. Based on its construction, which is fairly heavy duty plastic of a honeycomb type nature (its not solid plastic but has cavities between the inner and out layers) I would imagine it would hold up well.

it obviously is not as strong as a medium priced gas snow blower. most problems are associated with it's low profile in a snow over 12" deep and it struggles in wet snow. however it got me through winter of 2013 and was a great improvement after shoveling by hand. didn't have any overheating problems. a good machine over all.
