has anyone had trouble with the side vents leaking small amounts of water onto the grill end tables in a rain storm?

I haven't noticed any excess water. I suppose if the grill isn't somewhat sheltered and driving thunderstorm could allow some water into the vents. Otherwise, it works fine for me. I'm quite satisified.

I haven't had any rain this year yet, so I can't help you with that question yet.

Aloha Cheryl Thus far I have no problems, however I would think that IF you have moderte to high winds with the rain, that you might have a problem with 'crosswinds' carrying the rain onto your grill tables. I position my grill from north to south as the rain/wind mostly comes from the south.

I have not noticed any as of yet. We had a storm a few weeks back where we got over 7 inches of rain in two days. Did not see any then but if it was a very small amount it may have dried up before I took cover off at next use of grill. We are suppose to have rain tonight and tomorrow. I will check after it stops raining to make sure.Kenny

I purchased one of these tents about two years ago. No rain fly. I did go through the trouble of sealing the seams and sprayed it with sealer. I have had it out in several rain storms some with high winds and have never had a problem with it leaking. There are a couple things you need to make sure of. First there are vents on the top of the tent to allow it to breath. Normally you leave these open all the time but if it is windy during a rain storm you may have to close those depending on the direction of the wind. Another thing is in the bottom corner of door there is a flap that is supposed to shed water to the outside of the tent. You need to make sure it is on the outside of the tent. If it gets inside water running down the outside of the tent will come in down by the floor. Finally when you put it up, make sure you pull the legs outwards and stake them so that the tent is taught. Some of the scouts in our troop just stand them up and don't stake them leaving the tent saging in areas and that can cause water to come in. Like I said I have had my tent 2 years and have been through several rain storms with no water problems...

I've not noticed any leakage from water, but to be honest, I haven't really checked right after a rainstorm. I don't think I would trust something like this with paperwork...in most cases it would probably be fine, but blowing rain may be a different story.

The manufacturer ships different grills for indoor or outdoor use. From my long history with these and related model of speakers, I'd advise keeping them pitched downward and in a way that avoids direct spraying of rain, sprinklers, etc.

Somehow rain does get in through the back allowing things to get wet. Unfortunately, I have this experience not sure uf anyone else does.

I believe there is a net which dissipates humidity which gathers under the heavy vinyl covering ( I think that is the reason it is there ) but I keep my bbq under the house overhang and thus it is not subjected to downpours although the cover of does get wet in the rain. It has never given me a problem however with dirt and water inside the covering. It is dusty eventually under the cover as it is outside, but a wipe with a damp rag and windex takes care of that and of course the cover is closed on the grill itself so my cook surface is secure from rain and dirt in any case.

I have found the outside temperature affects it. Try adjusting your vents and place the grill vents towards the prevailing winds.

We recently used ours for the first time in the rainiest weather imaginable. It poured for a big portion of the week and the unit was out in it all. No problems whatsoever. It stayed soaked and gave no problems while giving me the peace of mind of knowing that my trailer's electronics were protected.

Ours has been rained on and did fine. I wouldn't submerge it. It doesn't seem to have rubber seals to keep water out if you did.

Mine has been outside for months with no problem. If you didn't install the weatherproof grommet on the backside properly then it will leak.

i've had this shelter for about a year and since day 1 it has dripped along the seams in the rain. I think you could fix it by applying some kind of glue or sealant along the seam lines, but I just haven't done it.

Yes it is waterproof and you can use it in the rain. It is all metal and it is a really great grill. I had one and bought one for my son.

I have had no problems with wind blowing it out. A strong wind will slow down the cooking time a little but not much. I am very satisfied with the grill.

I have mine mounted in the grill and haven't had any trouble after going threw a automatic car wash or heavy rain.

I have had no problem. Air vents on bottom. But the stainless exterior is a pain to keep nice without smudges and markings

I have a Jenn Air model 720-0150-LP. The cover is a little larger than the grill but it does cover it and I have had no problems with it coming off in the wind and rain

Yes,I have been through lightning storms and not a drop. I went away recently and it rained and never even thought about the tent leaking.
