I don't have space in my garage to store this. Will this rust if leaving outdoor under the sun and rain weather in southern california?

Construction is powder coated aluminum and stainless steel hardware, so it will not rust.

I haven't had mine through the winter yet, but it's been outside in tons of weather since spring and it does not show any signs of rusting or weathering. It's a sturdy product, built to last. The best I've ever had. If I see anything in the future I would apply a silicone coat on the area.

I live in Ohio and we have bad weather and store in a shed, but just buy a good cover the same as anything you store outside.

Mine stays outside and is holding up well. But only have had it for 6 mo. No corrosion or rust. I believe it comes with a 10 year guarantee against that.

We live in arkansas, so it would be better to keep it in the house or in the garage. During summer it would be ok on porch or patio.

Though we have not done so, I would expect keeping it outside would be fine. Ours has travelled many hundreds of miles in the back of the truck; rain, snow, etc. It has held up well. We have had no problems with rust.

With the exception of some nuts on the handle and underneath the cart, this can be safely kept outside. Leave it face up, and use the "dumping" lever to get rid of accumulated rain water and the nuts underneath won't rust. Alternatively, using a silicone-based spray on the exposed metal parts occasionally should also address any problems arising from it being stored outside. Other than its assembly directions being really unclear, I love this cart.

I have mine in a corner of the kitchen, but it seems to have a powder coat of bronze paint all over, so I think it may not rust.

Not sure, we keep ours in the garage..it might be ok because the material seems like it would hold up although I would definitely recommend maybe covering when it's going to rain just to preserve it.

I had it outside all Summer and it didn't show any signs of rust. I did put it away for the Winter.

I have had it outside for a year now in the Pacific NW and its rust free. I cover it with a tarp when it rains.

Don't think so....it looks like it is protected against rust. But, I've only had it for six months and it doesn't sit in the weather, so....I may not be the best judge.

I would not - it looks like it would rust easily if it is exposed to rain or a high amount of moisture.

The only issue I've had is rain rusting the hardware. Best to put it under a cover of some sort.

We have ours inside, but we live in a hotter part of SoCal than you. I would bet that garage storage in such a mild climate like yours, doesn't really affect it much.

I place it in the garage when it rains. The only problem is that its not staked down so you have to adjust it ever so the ball is back in position to hit. I started moving it inside because I noticed slight rust on the base from being in the wet grass.

I use it in Garage. You would have to check with Rubbermaid if it can stand up to the weather elements.

I have mine in the basement but i would not recommend to leave outside for long periods of time. It could risk getting rusty.

Yes if you leave it out all of the time. If you put it away when not in use for camping or what not then it works fine and no rusting.
