does it block rain from getting on your porch?

It is somewhat porous, it may block a light rain for a while, but a heavier rain with any wind will start to come through.

It does block rain somewhat...it's not solid and if the rain is blowing towards the the shade the deck gets wet within a foot of the shade. Hope that helps.

Yes it allows us to sit outback under the porch without the rain coming in. It also keeps our outdoor furniture from getting wet.

It helps reduce the amount of rain, since it's installed on a portion of the deck where rain might otherwise penetrate; however, it does not completely block all rain from getting through, particularly during windy rainstorms.

Since rain here is usually preceded by wind, we usually roll our shade up before it rains.

Not Really. It will keep the rain off for a while but then it eventually leaks.

Yes, but it won't keep out rain. I suppose it could be used for partial shade, though some of the sides are mesh.

Not sure this is the rigt product if you want to protect from rain. It covers from sun but don't think it will help in the rain

It does, but I can tell you I bought it last year thinking I could use it as a cover over my umbrella and it was to heavy. I tried to send it back but shipping cost was outrageous! So it sits in my garage. Not sure what you want it for but it needs a heavy support.

My husband installed it, but from what he explained, that flap inside the gutter reroutes most of the water. It doesn't block the gutter completely during a rain, but generally the flow of water down the gutter is too much to reroute using a device like this. Even if it seems like a flimsy idea, we have had zero problems with our system. We live in north Texas where it doesn't rain a whole lot. Even so, in the first 10 minutes of our first moderate rain after installing this, the 50 gallon barrel filled up. Hope that helps.

I also did not notice that the underside is shiny. But the umbrella does repel the rain. I currently have two of these umbrellas and wish I could get one for my 9 x 11 umbrella. (not sure of those dimensions)

Not 100% but does protect from rain. Will not from a drop in a sink of water.

No it does not but I spent a day in the rain with it. I would call it rain resistant but not rain proof. My stuff stayed dry.

As long as it is pulled tightly, it keeps my patio dry. Mine has been up through many showers and the patio underneath had stayed fairly dry. Of course, it does get wet around the edges when the wind blows the rain under. Also, you need to be sure to have it tilted slightly to let the rain run off.

No. It will keep a light mist off of the bike. but rain goes right through. I purchased a cheap plastic shower curtain and put this under my cover and that keeps it dry.

Yes. Please do not let it get wet in the rain out on your porch - it will bubble

It does. I got it to install under a trellis shelter. The top is open so I had to put a makeshift cover over the top to keep rain out.

it should. It keeps the birds and my puppy out of the garden. However when it rains it doesn't work as well. You need to keep the power source out of the direct weather.

That I don't know. Mine is on my covered porch. It does get some sun, wind and rain but not out in the open.

No, but it has a large canopy that extends pretty far down. It's the largest canopy I've seen on an umbrella stroller, but if your child is still a baby, then the position of the canopy might be too high to block much rain.

I was also considering this product for keeping rain out but if it doesn't do that I won't bother... Anybody had any experience with rain? Is it actually waterproof?
