I'm in PHX AZ, -- wind gusts of 70-85 mph Can this survive here? How can you keep it from being damaged?

Just roll it up and it should be fine. I am in Imperial county CA. We also get strong winds.

This rolls up so you could roll it up during storms. I believe it can be anchored on the sides if you have posts to anchor it to. Where we live we have some pretty high winds, too. I just roll it up during those times. Hope this helps.

If its properly installed it will stand up to winds very well. We have had winds from light to all day 25mph winds and storms up to 75mph we have had it almost a year no problems.

We have strong winds here in Ct also and it has never blown over. We filled the base with sand and it makes it quite heavy. I need my husband to help me move it. This This is the best birdfeeder I've ever had. Would recommend it to anyone.

We are on the Texas coast and its almost always windy here. Our shade sail is working just fine for us. We use it at our daycare playground and I'm very satisfied.

I used it three times last summer, and on one camping trip the winds were going about 20 mph. I had it staked tight to the ground, and had no problems. It moved a little in the wind but had no issues of anything ripping.

It is not supposed to rust, and I haven't had it long enough to see for myself.We've had se pretty severe storms with lots of wind lately (gusts up to 40mph) but it didn't topple over.

It may deflect some of the wind, most certainly bugs & rocks. I would check all the bolts on the hood hinges to insure they are tight.

Some wind can be withstood, but I put mine on a covered porch. That lessens exposure to wind, rain and sun. It is a nice set, but I doubt it will hold up if exposed regularly to the elements.

Yes, it can handle strong wind. We loved ours in all weather. In fact, ours did well until the snows hit. We got a foot of snow and ours crumples like an accordion. It was about 10 months old. We were very sad to lose it.

It stood up well in a night-long rain/snow mix, though I had it covered with a plastic tarp. There was some wind, maybe 15 mph, which is why I used the tarp for warmth. I have not used it in a 30 mph wind.

It's a very cool tent but I don't think it will withstand that much wind. At least I have not attempted to drive with it still on.

well we don't have snow in San Diego but we do get some good winds I have 6 I bolts with a rope going over the top rail and that has held up for two years. it is built better than most canopy's i looked at thicker tarp and lager poles our stays up year round.

Strong winds will definitely wreck this tent... Would not recommend for the beach on a very windy day.. The frame is just not sturdy enough..The manual itself says to avoid the wind.. With that said, we have one for our back deck and it works perfectly in moderate wind ;)

With those winds, at the very least the frame will distort and deform. Mine is staked down and located in an area sheltered by trees and a deer fence, and when I leave the door up, any significant wind pushes the frame out of shape. It does better when the door is down, but I wouldn't think of using one in 65 mph winds. I'm beginning to believe the disclaimer printed in the instructions that these are for temporary use, meaning a couple of years at best.

Well, I live in Nebraska which is very (extremely) windy at times but not really 70-85 level. Mine is under the eves of the house and we have it down in summer continuously. I did put like some improvised hooks into the house that hook to the pull metal rod at the bottom of the shade and then put tension on the shade by rolling it up tight.

I live in California however it has lasted through windstorms with absolutely no damage if that helps
