Why does it need to be covered when it rains? Doesn't the lid keep most of the rain out?

The lid seems to keep water out where I keep mine, it might be slightly sheltered under trees, but I havehad no problem.

No it does not need to be covered at all. If a little water gets in through the holes that could only help the process

Water runs off lid and into composter. Not a huge problem, but will waterlog in heavy rain.

The old does not keep rain out. When it rains, my bin floods and then there is a little river of compost water running out the little door on the front.

NO rain here at the moments so i took some water and flicked beads of water on the case and it rolled right off and didn't seen to soak in for a minute or so. The rain flap should keep any light rain from entering from the top but there is no waterproof inserts inside the compartment but you might easily add some plastic in there.

The roof does not cover the floor, the floor sticks out a few inches further. So if it rains you will get water inside. It is only a sun and wind shelter, not rain

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.

It does not keep rain out. You have to water proof it yourself with spray-on water proofer. It has two flaps. One for to keep bugs out and one for privacy.It is just not shown in this picture.

It helps reduce the amount of rain, since it's installed on a portion of the deck where rain might otherwise penetrate; however, it does not completely block all rain from getting through, particularly during windy rainstorms.

I don't think it would be possible for rain to get into the mailbox. The lid has a "lip" all the way around and that should keep everything inside dry. Also, the box is larger than most, which means there is less chance that a large piece of mail will be sticking out of the box where it could be rained on.

It is covered, however, the mesh-sides can allow rain to get in. I haven't used it during the rain.

It does block rain somewhat...it's not solid and if the rain is blowing towards the the shade the deck gets wet within a foot of the shade. Hope that helps.

The front of the cover has a soft seal that will cover the front lip. It does not seem to leak water during rain storms.

I've built a protective covering using 4" PVC pipe. I think you really need to keep rain off of this. The lip on the bottom isn't that much of a lip.

The lid stays very well, we've never had it fly off. It keeps rain water out too.

It goes over your existing vent cover, so it shelters the vent from rain and you can leave the vent open. It has a screen on it too, so bugs don't get in. We've added two to our RV and they're great, since we can now leave the vents open for ventilation and not have to worry about the rain coming in. I can't say how easy they are to install because DH did it, but it must not have been too hard, because he didn't complain. Good luck!

HiYes it has a rain cover. Nicely inserted in the back cover from the bottom.Regards

Since solar cover just rests on pool, the rain just flows into the pool. There is very little water on top of cover.

I don't use a cover ,just make sure the drain cap is off if rain is on the way.I do have an old perspex table top that I cover it with t o make a temporary picnic table for the kids.

Mine sits on a covered porch where rain can't hit it. I bought the cover to keep the outside clean fron dust and bird poop.
