No. Mine is outside And we r having very windy weather lately. It hasn't moved.

I don't think so. It's very light and would likely fall whenever the wind blew to hard.

Hi and yes, that is about right, it is light until you load your gear (duh, right?) then you may incur a bit of a challenge. Hope this helps and please feel free to hit me with another. Tracy

I assembled the same bench for my wife and she hasn't had any trouble regarding the issues that you seem to have, maybe return it for a another one, I wish I could help you with a better answer

it is thin and will blow away. I thought of the same thing. It is too small and no bottom. I use a rubbermaid basket and a heating blanket for the floor. I cover the basket with a blanket and set it in a corner and put bricks on top to weigh it down from the winter wind. Also try hay or straw and make a fort type thing.

If the breeze is under 25 mph.... it should be okay. Hopefully it will be weighed down so as to not being lift by a strong gust

The bench will be fine. We use our bench at our Fire Department and none of the guys have come to me saying it was not long enough.

Mine has been up in some crazy Colorado winds and done just fine, but I have the sand bag weights attached to it or it would have blown away. This is my 2nd year having it up.

It's pretty low - a comfortable bench. However, I believe it could handle a lot of weight, so if your set is big, go for it!

my best answer is maybe. The big problem with this bench is the size, I use and stepper to give more inclination.

Yeah, i don't think that would be a problem... the bench is very stable lengthwise, it rocks a little side to side but its still stable that way as well. I'd give it a test run to be sure but I'm traveling at the moment.

This was a gift to our daughter. She has set her shelter up on her back patio for the same reason you are contemplating. She has not complained about it blowing away. I'll check the next time I talk with her.

My wife and I think it is a great looking bench. It is not lightweight by any stretch of the imagination but it is lighter than the Coaster Storage. Mine is a black faux leather but it looks great in my bedroom. I feel I got lucky with this purchase. This one also is smaller than the other one so you have to consider that. Tough to pick since I like the look of both

It will blow away. We've already lost ours to a strong wind because it wasn't staked at the time. However, there are nylon loops you could use to tie it to something. Hope this is helpful.

This is a very nice bench. The back will just be white and the hindges will show. I would not hesitate putting it somewhere to have the back show. Hope this helps

I don't think that it would blow away, its pretty heavy. I have it on a Gazebo (nothing under it) and I do not have it tied down. We have some pretty good winds here and it doesn't move.

It is ridiculously light; it will blow away in a gentle breeze and if it's well anchored it will blow away in a stiff wind. I don't think I would take it to the seashore.
