Is this item suitable for outdoor use on a deck?

I would think not - if this gets wet and dries repeatedly, I think the wood will swell and contract and eventually split.

I don;t see why not. It's wood. (bamboo) The only issue may be the screws might rust. But the screws are counter sunk in so even if they do you won't see it. Plus you can buy Rust inhibitor at home depot. It really works. and may I as a precaution I would use clear Thompson water seal. If they have a spray use that.

I would think so, it's made of bamboo, but I haven't gotten it wet, so not positive. Maybe best if protected from direct moisture.

My shelf is outside on the deck thought it is under a covered deck. If you live in a humid climate and mold grows on the shelf just spray with bleach, let it sit for a few hours and rinse with a hose.

Yes. We keep ours on a screened in porch, but it is on a side of the house where the rain can blow in. Doesn't hurt the bamboo, but you might want to move the non-weatherproof shoes!

I would not recommend it for outside use, its for indoor items that you constantly have to plugin and unplug, like cell phones, coffee makers, things like that. Outside have ground fault, if it gets wet if trips the fault. This item is not made for being exposed to the elements as far as I can see.

I suspect it's OK for temporary use for your application; though you would need to secure it to the deck properly with bolts. Otherwise, a strong wind will blow it away.

I would not recommend this for outdoor use. There are far too many places that moisture could sneak in. However, if you mount it upside down underneath some form of cover that can keep it dry it should be OK. For a while :)

No,it is not intended for outdoor use, however if it is placed where it will not be directly exposed to the elements, it should be fine. If you place it under a porch, gazebo, or similar protection, so that it isn't soaked by a rainfall, there should be no worries.

Well, I think it would be fine for outdoor use, IN a covered patio situation. The chair seat covers might not stand up to the weather, even with being in a covered patio situation. But it is of very sturdy construction.

I have honestly not even used mine yet, as my festival was canceled. But I heard the legs melt after excessive use. I would think it'd be ok for short term use on a deck

Definitely not an outdoor set. It's a light weight wood with thin laminate - it would easily warp and get damages if wet.

I don't know what the manufacturer says about outdoor use. It looks to me like it could be used in a covered area like on a porch but it wouldn't holdup up in a wet environment. Since its battery operated it would also be subjected to corrosion in a salt air environment if you live in a coastal area. The unit itself works quite well although I did not like the Velcro adhesive so opted to use screws.

It is very well built. I think you could use it outdoors in moderate conditions but it's not specifically built for that purpose. In a garage or in a covered electrical outlet i would think would be fine. Somewhere out exposed to rain or snow i would not recommend, but then again i would not recommend any plugged in electrical connections in such environments.

No I would not use it outdoors. While the edges of the play surface are sealed I do believe the table would swell if exposed to moisture.

I don't believe this was intended as an outdoor fan. the blades will probably droop after exposure to moisture/humidity. If you found some outdoor fan blades, I would imagine it would work fine on a porch or what not.

Yes, I purchased this item and it is mounted outside and looks great. It can be mounted to any surface.

I think it's vinyl. It is certainly waterproof. The main concern with the deck would be splinters that could puncture it. I'm not sure how exposure to weather would affect it--it IS black, after all. It would likely get quite hot in the sun.

I don't see why you couldn't use it outside. It might not hold up as well, but they are not that expensive. If it doesn't hold up to the weather buy a new one.

It is fine to use outdoors. However, if you use an extension cord you will want to make certain it is appropriate for outdoor use.

I would not recommend it for outdoor use. I would suggest something simpler where you could just lay out if you want something for outdoors. This takes time to connect and may not handle weather.
