What's the material this is made of? Can it be treated to use outdoors?

I think is is probably MDF with a vaneer over it. I personally do not believe it would last outdoors, altho for indoor use it is remarkably sturdy. There might be a heavy duty varnish you could use for the wood, but there are hinges that would rust.

I think the shelves and solid panel sections are actually constructed of Masonite (or equivalent)--the difference from MDF being no glue or resins holding it together. I don't think it would last outdoors even with a good varnish. There are too many places where moisture could get into the board.

Plastic so the weather will not matter if outside.. I hung it out in rain with no problem. Has a grommet on each corner so you can tie or nail it in place

I think it could be used outdoors. It stands up to moisture fine. But it is a foam, and foams break down eventually. Sunlight would speed up that process.

As Mr. Glover has discovered, you can indeed use this item outside, provided you are taking care to keep it at least somewhat protected from the elements! I hope this answer will assist you.

It is made out of a heavy canvas so I think it is weather resistant. There are metal pieces that are used to hang the swing and I'm not too sure if they are weather resistant. It might rust and the fabric might get mildew if exposed to harsh weather.

It is plastic, there are plastic paints but if it's in the weather it may not last.

Not sure on the material. It seems to be some sort of rock/sand mold. The holds can be used outside but you will need to get stainless hardware. The hardware that came with it wasn't for outdoor use.

I would NOT place this directly on any surface outside. But my daughter loves to take it outside. So we allow it on the GRASS only ... with something underneath to protect the plastic from rocks or sticks. I would suggest large towels or a plastic tarp to preserve the plastic coating.

The material used, is water resistant. In rain, I can tell you, it can tolerate rain, but if you have very much, forget it, it'll soak through. So if you want it so you can stay dry during pouring rain, it'll drip on you. It's not designed for long term use and is all over the manufacturers webite. That being said. I have a friend who's done exactly as you're thinking. Though has the commercial grade, worth the extra money. They screwed the feet into the deck, and they lower the legs completely when they are not using it.

It's made of aluminum and has a plastic cover so it should be fine as long as the screws you use to install it are made for outdoor use.

If used outdoors, I would be sure to bring it in at night so it doesn't get stained. The material is not water resistant.

Negative it is not designed for outdoor use! Unless you enclose it somehow so the weather can't get to it! Hope it helps!

It is NOT wood, it is resin plastic. Yes, it appears to be safe for outdoor usage. VERY small though, the items pictured on the table are MINIATURE. This is a misleading listing.

It is made of a plastic type material. It is not weather proof for long periods of time. I bought mine as an outdoor kitchen for my deck and it has warped in the sun.

I'm not sure but I don't believe it was intended for outdoor use the coating is more to protect them from chipping each other and themselves. sorry i can't be of more help

In all honesty I'm not 100% sure if it was weather treated. I ended up returning mine because it was MUCH smaller in person than the picture and didn't fit over my well pump. It would have been a nice decorative wishing well but very light material and if I remember correctly was made out of like plywood or some vinyl wood not real wood.

yes it can be use outdoor. But keep in mind its rust resistance and not rust prove. So, eventually after years of usage it will rust.
