I live in sidney mt and it's held up like a champ. I was very skeptical I thought it was going to hold up for only one month or so seeing that it took me 3 hours to put up by myself. If it can with stand bitter cold and wind everyday it definitely received my seal of approval.

I've only had the shed since March of this year. Hopefully it will last a long time.

It has lasted through several storms here in Iowa without any issue. It's ok open in the wind/rain but I have kept it closed when I'm not using it.

We haven't had any snow yet so that I can't fully answer, but it has held up really well against the couple of storms we have had lately. There have been at least three high wind/hard rain storms and it has held up great on the side of our house.

It's sturdy and the surface area of the roof is not that big. I don't think snow load is an issue.Can't say how it will do long term in very cold temps. My brother has a similar unit he has owned for probably 10 years. He has moved it 2x. It is holding up great. He is just north of NYC so below zero is not common.It is not hard to put together, but my 10 y.o. helped and he had to kick something to get everything to line up and he broke off a small piece.It is still sturdy despite that. I am very happy with it.

Quite well. I have five of these installed on the outside of my garage here in NJ. We've had a hard winter and they are holding up just fine.

We have used the shed for about three months and it's pretty close to weatherproof though not 100%. So no precious antics should go in there but not really worried about tools, law mowers, etc

Yes. Should be fine. Since I out mine up, we have had a couple 10-12 inch snowfalls. No problems at all. It's a pretty good shed for being resin. My wife and I out it up in a day. Watch the YouTube video. Three people would be handy. You have to use a shim when putting each wall piece up. That was tricky but the rest is pretty easy. Be careful to not strip the screw holes when doing bolts.

I haven't had it long enough for leaks/mildew but two major rain storms and a recent snow storm with single digit temps, it's holding up well. As I mentioned in my review, I did get some water on the floor that was pushed in by the wind. So far so good.

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.

Mine's been outdoors since I got it last year and it's been great. I live in Georgia and we did have some freezing temps but not in the sustained way you'd have up north.

I have had no issues with this shed. Got all the parts, assembled it without issues, and am enjoying it thoroughly.

I'm hoping it will last me for at least a few years. We have experienced a lot of rain and it is holding up just fine. I'm just worried about heavy wet snow.

Im in the northeast. It is not real wicker. We store in an unheated shed for the winter and it is fine. When outside we keep it covered when not in use. So far it has had no problems. Have had it 2 seasons

It survived my Virginia winter last year with no problems, and I'm betting that colder Chicago won't throw it any curves. :)

We don't live in a heavy snow fall area but I moved here from my, so I understand the fear. I think it would be fine. The shed actually comes with three cross beams that the roof is a to. Also, while putting ours together, it fell over and we had to say out portions of it. It's still fine. It did rip in one corner but it was our fault for not screwing it down to something when it git to windy to be out finishing it. So, if it still up after the wind knocking it over, I think the snow will be no problem. Plus it's short enough you could use a broom to just push the snow right off. No problem. Anyway, the cross beams are made of aluminum but they are strong cause they are i beams.
