Can it be used outdoors on a covered porch?

Your question is probable best posed to the manufacturer or someone who has used this out doors. I did not have much experience with the bed as none of my cats would stay in it and avoided it. I would think that as long as it did not get wet, it would be worth giving it a shot for outside kitties, though I'd keep my eye on it closely for a few weeks to make sure it is holding up ok and that it is being used.

I think this model is for indoor only use, but I do think the same company makes a heated bed designed to be used outdoors.....good luck in your search, this company is great...I have had other products of theirs in the past. My cats are thrilled with these beds....my only complaint is that they are sleeping more, so they spend a little less time with me....

Yes, as long as it sheltered from rain, I have been using it in the cat house under my covered carport.

I would think so, as long as it doesn't get wet (or at least is cleaned and dried immediately if it does). The fur-like fabric is machine washable and there are two thin foam-rubber pads inside that sandwich the heating pad.

Yes, as others have stated, if it's protected from the weather and all moisture, including dew and lawn sprinklers. I have a few of these mounted under the eaves of the roof outside, so when people approach the doors it gives them some illumination even if the porch lights are off (and if someone was sneaking around the perimeter trying to snoop or break in, the sudden light might make them think twice).

i would say yes to a covered porch as long as weather (rain) could not get to it but it is not made for outdoor use... although the water is in constant motion it's not moving like a river ... it moves enough to avoid stagnation and has a filter that deals with moderate amounts of foreign matter... these two things incline me to say negative on mosquito proliferation control

I don't see why not. It would be covered by sunbrella or other material that was for the outdoor area...it is an insert...not to be used by itself.

Yes it can be used outdoors but it must be protected from rain and snow such as on a covered porch. I have one high up on a covered porch so not water hits it through this cold winter in PA and so far no problems. If not protected from water it cannot be used outdoors.

Sorry, but I would not purchase this for outdoor use unless it is protected by a covering of some sort. I left mine out in the open and it was damaged after it got wet from the rain.

No, it is not an outdoor unit! The cushioned areas will get waterlogged and there are bolt holes that would eventually fill up with rain water. If a porch was covered, it could work but not exposed directly.

It could be used outdoors IF it is under an eave or patio cover. It is definitely NOT designed to be used in an open, weather exposed, condition. The amount of light (lumens) emitted from this fixture is limited. It's enough to provide emergency lighting in the event of a power failure but would probably prove insufficient in an open exterior location.

I don't think it would last very long if it was directly exposed to rain and sun. It would be fine outside under a covered patio.

Not in the open, the panels are material. Might be ok on covered patio. It is very nice looking and quite sturdy.

It is cast iron and has walnut blades. I wouldn't even think of using it even on a covered porch though I imagine people do. it is definitely an inside fan I have had three of these fans, and the housing is not enclosed. In other words, the housing of the motor is the motor, it is not just for looks. These things weigh a lot! Hope this helps. No where does it say in the instructions that it can be used outside.

Yes, but it's on a covered porch. There are some peek holes on the front to see if you have mail, which might allow some rain to dampen the mail.

I used it outside, however the glass is on a covered porch that doesn't get sunlight or rain.

I have mine on a covered porch and used it daily-one just like it for about 8 years. Outside if left up it would probably deteriorate much faster. Also buckles on shoes that might catch and cause a tear, are NOT a good idea.

I think it could be used outside as long it does not get rained on it has to be under a balcony or roof of some sort it is not moisture proof

I think you could, not sure how long it will last in elements, I have ours on the porch.

I don't know what the manufacturer says about outdoor use. It looks to me like it could be used in a covered area like on a porch but it wouldn't holdup up in a wet environment. Since its battery operated it would also be subjected to corrosion in a salt air environment if you live in a coastal area. The unit itself works quite well although I did not like the Velcro adhesive so opted to use screws.
