Is it a tough exterior? My daughter is a farmer.

I have to beg to differ. I have a 5 acre property with two horses, I ride at another barn where I keep my own horse, and then I work at a barn with 18 horses. You get the picture, lots of barns, lots of wear and tear. This coat has held up incredibly well, washes extremely well, and is still just fine after a few years of near daily fall and winter use. I am looking possibly get another "non-barn" jacket here.

I wouldn't recommend it for her, because it snags pretty easily. As my husband said, "It's no Carhartt".

I don't believe it is particularly 'tough' if you are asking if it would hold up to repeated abrasive wear. It has the same texture as a windbreaker. That, combined with the reflective interior material, makes it very effective though.

I would have to say, "NO".....our cover, in just two months of summer storage, ripped in several places where it was in contact with metal/hard surfaces,,,,,like the water drain/gutter. Unfortunately, not very durable. We had some thunderstorms, but nothing extreme.

MIne is indoors, but the product design appears to be able to withstand the outdoor elements. Love it!!

It's not to soft and not to hard...my daughter is picky and she haven't complained about it yet

Well, it depends in part where you're using it and how much it's going to have to stand from wind/rain/etc. I put some on a chicken coop over a year ago and most of it looks just like the day I put in on. One side gets more of the weather, and I probably needed to give it an extra coat as a result, but it still looks pretty decent. I'm sure there are more durable options, but for a water-based product this is impressive.

This was a gift to our daughter. She has set her shelter up on her back patio for the same reason you are contemplating. She has not complained about it blowing away. I'll check the next time I talk with her.

Mine has done well in rain and snow. bought a second one for the walkway. Both are hung on garden stakes so no protection from the elements.

We have used it a little outside. When we did it was fine. Word of advice do not let them stand on it.

Hello - It's still holding up strong on my mother-in-laws front porch. Her porch is not enclosed, but has a roof. It has faced all the weather elements over the year and still looks great. For the price we paid, we couldn't pass it up. Good luck!

I think so. We've had some pretty hard winds and rain and it's been great! It is under the edge of our camper awning but everything else would be soaked and the box never leaked.

Think so. Rows need to be wide enough to navigate. It is a bit high. Need mobility, able to bend over and good knee action. If soil too soft, may have trouble scooting or moving forward. It is very sturdy. I am 82, so keep her moving. Happy gardening. &#128525;

Is fine in our back yard with strong winds, have placed small bricks in corners, but have had no problems. It comes with small tent pegs, but I wouldn't trust them to strong winds. No cover for the front. Live in high desert, so rain hasn't been a problem.

my sons has been outside for 2 weeks now. seems fine so far. But assembly is more of an issue & the wobbliness of the entire thing. I wouldn't buy it again BUT my son does love it & its safe enough with constant supervision. I'll have a more accurate answer on weather in a month or so

We've had it outside the entire time, and it has done fine. It isn't very heavy, but comparatively sturdy enough to handle thunderstorms for example. We live in the south, so i can't tell you about snow, but i hope this helps

We just got ours 2 weeks ago, but were very pleased with how sturdy it is, I think it will hold up for years to come. And yes I think it would handle the snow no problem. It's also very spacious for a 2 to 4 bird coop, we are very impressed with the house.

I believe so. My grandson has not complained about it. We've had some heavy rains the last few weeks.
