It does fade in sunlight after a while. I haven't tested for loss of strength though.

Looks like parachute type nylon - it is light weight. Mine rotted and split in the Florida sun in nine months. They replaced it free of charge under the 4 year warranty.

I seems to be a nylon rope. It did start to wear at the center where it was anchored so we wrapped it with duct tape. I would expect this kind of wear with any rope because of the movement.

*Rope is Smart Poly material - 80/20 poly / cotton for a softer feel and lasting durability

Anna, I am not exactly sure what it is made of but it appeared to be the normal nylon tent material - if that helps. My kids were definitely shaded from the sun under it. I did not notice any odor, but we opened and used it outside where I probably would not have notice anything anyway.

I haven't had mine for to long but it appears to be made from some type of light weight nylon. It is water resistant and the tie downs work well. It has a four year warranty.

Not sunbrella, but very fade resistant. I have some sunbrella and it is much coarser-this is like a heavy nylon with a silky feel. It is a rich burnt orange. I live in So. Ca.

I have used them outside for about three months now, but they are not exposed to the sun constantly, nor are they in a dusty or dirty area that would interfere with the velcro hooks and loops. I would be wary of any black plastic in the sun, and no matter what the material it's made of, if you can't glom up your velcro with any kind of debris, it ain't gonna "velcro" any more. Good LucK.

Sure, but it is all natural fiber, so it will decompose over time. Actually, nylon rope breaks down as well -- point is, at some point, after a while, replace the rope!

It comes with a yellow poly tow rope.....ours broke/shredded after several uses. We prefer a softer white nylon rope. We have two zip lines. The first zip we got had a nylon rope that has held up much better.

I would say it is water resistant. But not water proof. I have mine in the garage and so can't speak with authority, but I feel the material would not hold up well to ambient UV.

Depends on where you live, I suppose, but I would be concerned that the sun's ultraviolet light would cause premature deterioration of the fabric and/or the bungee cords. Outdoors bouncing sounds great but I would probably tend to take the tramp back inside upon completing my workout.

Seems to me like it was made of nylon or something similar, mine is not exposed to UV rays so I can't testify to it holding up

No. I think it is made of a fabric called Sunbrella. It doesn't fade and shades very well.

I used it for an outdoor potting bench, even though it's labeled for indoor use. So far there doesn't seem to be a problem, no peeling or anything, and it's been well over a year in the AZ sun. I couldn't tell you if it's actually UV resistant though.....

The fabric seems to the a treated material not sure if nylon or light canvas type material. Is not plastic, seems to hold up well. When the sun finally ruins this one, I will try to buy this same type again.
