How do these hold up in rain over time? Can they be left out all summer?

I love my bistro set. It has been sitting outside on a covered balcony in Florida and still looks new. I did go over it with teak oil when I first got it as suggested by the manufacturer.

They seem to be waterproof etc. I've had them outside all summer and fall. They aren't as bright now that the days are shorter.

Up till date I've had them about 1 yr and they are placed around a flowering bed with sprinklers . I'd say they get a good amount of water splashed at them and when it rains. They've held up pretty good.

Yes. I've left them out all summer. They have weathered many severe storms and still sound great. I have had several friends inquire about them. Highly recommend.

These are great quality, I don't believe the lids will pop off if you drop them and (although I can't imagine why they'd be left in pouring rain) I believe they will stay rain-water resistant :)

Yeah they hold up well in the rain, I was on a training rotation with 30 mph winds laying in the rain on a gun team and they held up great. They were soaked on the foam, but I let them dry and they were fine. Didn't shrink it anything

They are water-resistant. In light rain/drizzle, your things will stay dry. However, if it's pouring out, chances are your things will get wet. I always wrap up papers or other things I don't want to get wet in plastic & then put it in the bags. I've used them during drizzle + downpours & I LOVE THEM!!! I always get complimented on them :-)

I'm not entirely sure but after a year of owning them I would lean toward water resistant, but very strongly water resistant. In major downpours I still use a water cover over them (which also isn't completely water proof), and in light rains I just let them stand on their own. Haven't had a problem yet.

They're pretty waterproof in my experience so you don't have to try and avoid watering over them. I haven't had any issues through the winter rains either.

Mine has held up well and even left them out in the snow...been a rough winter and not much fade to them at all.

This last for long time and resist the rain. Maybe every 6 month you need to reapply in some places.

I kept mine out over the winter. We had a couple of heavy snowstorms. Not a problem. As far as rain, airtight so far -- have had it about a year.

They take some wear and tear in the laundry, but will hold up to an occasional wash. I wash mine about every other month and have had them over a year.

Have had no problems with rain. You sometimes get some of the residue stuck together in the bottom but that can be easily washed out.

They hold up very well to the elements. The material is a study plastic type mesh. we leave ours out from the beginning of spring until the end of fall.

I left them out all summer and they have been out all winter too and they seem fine . If they can withstand South Carolina summers they can handle anywhere . I have 8 of them around my pool . Of course if you do store then they will last longer .
