Can I put the junior size one on a deck made out of wood planks,or would it cause water damage and weaken my deck ?Afraid it will be too heavy.

I don't know about that. Mine is on the ground. I built a decorative brick retaining wall around it.

Water will go through it. If your deck is weak it might be too heavy. It depends on how many bags of dirt it takes to fill the smaller one - that's where your weight will come from. I am guessing you won't be able to put but a very few plants in the junior one because the larger one isn't "that" large.

I personally would not recommend it unless there was a tarp underneath. My mom puts them on her deck. I put the smaller ones up (20 gallon) on my deck. Both of us move them around on the deck (so if you had a tarp underneath would be easier to move it). Also, sometimes the sun requirements will change for the various plants you plate, ability to move the bed might be nice bonus :) Additionally, we both break down the bed/pot in the fall, so it doesn't sit there all winter. Hope this helps.

it will definately cause water damage as it is a porous material. weight is another question and would depend on the structure of the deck.

It is permeable and water will seep through. The soil alone is very heavy and watered, it is even heavier. If you're worried, it's not the best location. I highly recommend this product with the proper placement in your yard.

I personally would not use it on my deck. It is really small and I think a raccoon could easily open it. I keep mine on my kitchen counter and it doesn't take up much space. I'm not even sure if it was knocked over if it would stay closed. I just went and tried to open it without hitting the push button and it opened easily. Hope this helps.

I use it on my wooden deck every time and I've not had a problem. It doesn't even discolor it. Get a sheet of cement backer-board (used under floor tiling) to put underneath if you're worried.

I am not sure about its safe load limit. It is for my daughter who weighs about 85 lbs. I cruise on it a few times and I weigh 170 lbs. The material it is made of is flexible and I'm not sure how far it can safely flex. The more you concentrated the load in the middle, the more it will bend. If you don't feel any bending while on the board, just like my 85 lb.er cruiser, then no worries, otherwise, like a 170 lb.er me, step away from the middle of the board towards the axle/track/wheel as safely as you can.

Yes, it can be placed on a wood deck. We have a wood deck and have had no issues with it being too hot since the heat is emitted through the top, not the bottom. We love our fire table!! Hope this helped...

You can attach to a deck by putting screws through the "feet" on the legs (2 holes each) -- make sure you make distance between each set of legs the same, so the feet attachments are square and balanced -- you can also buy the leg WEIGHTS that are available from the manufacturer, or you can devise your own "weights" -- this is a good product, but it must be attached/weighted in any kind of breeze or wind --

I use mine on concrete. It has steel propellers with rubber pads. I think it could chew up your deck and it's finish.If you refinish it every year you might not care. If you keep the back wheels on the ground I'd say it's less likely to chew up deck. I like my snowblower. The cord is a little frustrating but not messing with gas oil and maintenance and starting is nice.

What about snow? If I leave this around my deck will the harsh winter damage it? I live in Colorado.

Assuming the rail that you are clamping it to isn't too think to slip between the clamp and that it is strong enough to support the weight from whatever you will be hanging on it I can't see why it would matter what material the deck is made of. It should be fine I would think.

I'm not sure about size, that is probably ok. It's a pretty standard sized deck, if size is a concern you could get a mini pr micro, but in my opinion, this is too much board for a 5year old.

It has a metal edge, so my opinion is that it could possibly damage a wooden deck

Yes you can use it on a wooden deck. We do recommend putting something under it. We sell Deck Protectors. Thank you, The Blue Rooster Co 800-303-4312

I wouldn't risk using this on a wood deck. Mine was used on a stone patio and after 1 use, the pad disintegrated in the center.

There is no floor to it, so if your deck has space between the boards that could be an issue. There are loops to stake it down with, so if you could stake it in some way, I think it would be fine.

I used it on a deck, but it was not wood, it was composite material. It did a fantastic job on that. I would expect it to do just as well on wood, but you might have to adjust the force to a lighter pressure. That is very easy to do with this unit.

I would think the slide would be ok but you would not be able to slide down unless you attach the hose, with running water. You can not slide down on it dry. So if you have the ability to run a garden hose from the dock it should be fine. The slide just sits on our wood deck with no tie downs. Just make sure to deflate slightly and take in on windy days. The flap on the bottom does not have to be inflated, just fold it under and it might work better for your purpose.

Maybe. I am 195 lbs, but bought this for my 80 lb daughter. On her first day riding it, I did an Ollie to show off a little bit, and broke it from the rear truck back (the pointy end). Glue works wonders and we both still ride it, but I can feel it flex beneath me. If you're just cruising, it should be OK with some judicious foot placement. I bought some spruce and am making my own board, just in case. I hope this helps.
