If we use them outdoors for a four-hour event, are they sturdy enough to withstand a slightly windy day?

No - I would say not. Maybe you weigh it down with something heavy. This is great for indoor - but a little wind will likely blow it over.

They are fairly sturdy. Depending on how much you throw your backpack around, they should be ok.

It tends to get windy here as long as you have it anchored down with all the doors and windows closed you should be fine. We had wind gusts over 40 mph with no issues.

Quite well. In fact I've had mine outside for the last couple years now - through "polar vortex" and mid summer heat and it's held up extremely well. Quite sturdy.

I don't think it would work out well, they are light so they would probably just fall over, maybe on concrete if the wind isn't blowing.

As long as they aren't too awfully big I don't see a problem. We are out in the middle of nowhere so these things aren't a problem for us. We do have lots of strong winds and it seems to be doing OK with that. Looks great too. Good luck.

Probably not. They are not very tall (4 ft) and unless you plan to put them where there is no wind they are not very stable.

Sure, but be aware that it is light and will not withstand a lot of constand wind. If using on the beach for a 1 time event I would suggest using the sides and screw in anchors for the tie downs. Hope this helps!

It is sturdier than other umbrellas but don't expect it to withstand super heavy winds. It is like any other good quality umbrella.

Hello,I don't think the chairs would blow of your porch, unless it was a hurricane. They are sturdy. Good value for the price.

Ours lasted through one season of arts and crafts festivals. As to the wind, I don't know, we have not been in any high winds as of now.

I use them indoors right now, but I would think a strong wind would knock them over. Someone else suggested filling them with sand to keep them steady.

Our chairs are on an open patio. It has been very windy on several occasions and the chairs have never blown over. We had 40 mph wind gusts last week and still no movement.

The cones are sturdy, they've held up well to all kinds of thrashing by a toddler boy, but I don't know weight-wise if they'd hold up to strong wind.

My three sets stay outside and I haven't had any problems with them being blown over. After several storms and windy nights, they are still standing.

they are not hard plastic......but i consider them sturdy. They would hold up in a strong breeze...but probably a hard wind wouldn't be great.

For high winds you'll want different pegs (10-12") and additional support lines (there are enough places for you to tie on to on the fly sheet), but I would expect it to hold up fine. I was stuck in a light to moderate windy downpour, and stayed dry.
