This for area that is walked on a lot so grass wont grow by back door- Will this stay dry even when it rains?

If it's walked on it'll get tracked all over like regular mulch. It won't absorb water like regular mulch does.

I wouldn't suggest putting it outside. If it rains, it will be drenched and very heavy. I have my doormat laying inside next to the inside the door. Works very well.

Can be outside BUT electrical cord and unit cannot get wet. Keep in a covered dry area.

No. It's hard to keep things dry when it's raining hard but this box does a good job. You can see in the picture that the top has sides to it that cover the bottom section. It does pretty well at keeping the rain out. I am pleased with it myself.

Hi,We've not test it out on real situations. But on the comments of other users it seems that the rain only can go trough the front door when it's windy.Kind Regards

Ours is installed in an exposed but covered exterior entrance way where it gets wet from blowing rain and mist. It does not get rained on directly however. Appears to be fine.

yes, it can keep rain out. keep in mind that there are fasteners that have to go through the strip making a hole and that the surface the strip is touching must make a good seal.

I have walked from a commuter parking lot to the buildings where my class is held and had no problem with anything getting wet. The rain drops bead up and roll off. but the distance I walk is not as far as you would probably be going on your bike, so I would say you can double check on the Timbuk2 web site - see the details on the description of the pack you want. I would also send them your question - they are great about responding via email or telephone.

Closest we ever got to rain was wet grass and it stayed dry. But I don't think the design would stay dry in actual rain. It's a very open design and would get wet inside I think.

It'll keep your seed dry no matter the weather. You might want to consider a squirrel baffle, if they get into it they'll spill half your seed on the ground.

Still works great...keep it clean and use it only when grass is dry meaning not just watered

Well, it will keep you covered, and it will definitely dry you, but it's not going to provide either insulation value or wind protection. It should shed sand ok, but it's not designed to be handling real dirt...softeners and bleaches will decrease it's ability to hold water according to what I've read.

I keep it under a porch roof, but when rain has blown in, the contents have remained dry. My suspicions are that in direct rain, it would keep contents dry, but not prevent dampness from humidity.

Water will drain, but sand will also come through as it's not a really tight weave. It would be great on the grass. Hope that helps.

It needs to dry thoroughly. A good sunny day and a couple of hours should do it. I only spray it on the plants surrounding my yard not the grass.

My son has used his for his PE Locker which although shaded by the building overhang, is basically outdoors. It has been fine for the past 6 months. It is worth noting that we live in San Diego so rain is minimal - good luck.

I used mine on a screened in back porch. It was protected from rain and sun but still did not last very long. I would not buy another one
