Does the surface get hot or too warm out in the sun? And are the grommets (for the stakes) rust-free after repeated wash?

The surface is a fleece material and fleece allows air to flow between the fibers so it really shouldn't store up so much heat that it feels more than warm. The grommets are a chrome metal so they should be pretty rust proof. However, almost any metal will rust if it stays wet constantly. If you are drying the blanket thoroughly after washing before you fold it you won't have a problem. If you don't dry it you'll likely have a mold problem.

Mine are outside under a covered porch but the rain blows in on them and they are in full southern sun all afternoon. About 6 months so far and they look brand new. The material looks like it will survive anything, The finish may fade eventually and they may rust. I wouldn't have any concerns about leaving them outside with a cover.

I got my hammock just this summer, so obviously no rust yet. I have to say I have been surprisingly pleased with the hammock, as it works surprisingly well for one of the lower priced ones. I returned the first one we purchased as it was lousy.

I bought the cover for it and faithfully cover it after it cools down. I also remove the ash so it doesn't accumulate moisture. I have had no rust problems at all.

No problem with rust BUT we live in the desert. Also no problem with the cushions. We will probably need to keep this furniture covered or the weather will ruin it.

I have had this product since Oct. 2014 and the grommets have not rusted. Hope this help!!! P.S. I still have it hanging.

Yes, I live less than 1/3 mile from beach, purchased end of last summer, it's been outside whole time. It's held up very well, under sun, early morning dampness, fog and rain. i have folded it up, and placed under overhang if the inclement weather lasts more than a few days, but it's still outside, and no sign of rust or breakdown of weave on tabletop or chairs. I've been satisfied with my purchase.

I haven't had any problems with the fabric in hot weather. It does not retain the heat.

We live in Florida which is pretty much the arm pit of the world as far as moisture is concerned and we've not had any rust issues. The only thing we do is turn it upside down so water doesn't collect in it.

I'm not sure it's just tent stakes, tht i anchored with wood post. But I would like to know myself. Mine are rusting after 3 years of wear in FL.

Ours is going to be kept outside. The only concern I will have is the sun damage to the net material. The frame is aluminum so I am not worried about rust.

Mainly camp in wooded areas, so I can't really speak to how hot it gets in direct sun with no wind. We did put it up a few times in an open spot. I found it to be one of the best items we have bought. Sturdy and it is all mesh except for the roof. The walls are nearly perpendicular. So headspace even if it rains. But it isn't really a dark color. It's a light greenish tan. Like the definition of khaki. So I guess I have not found this to be an issue.

I haven't had it very long but it is in my basement where it is unfinished and can be extremely cold and humid when I am doing laundry. I have seen no sign of rust at this time. I also really like the way it folds up and holds a lot of clothing!!

Mine is in the barn aisle, so it is not directly exposed to sun, but it is to filtered sun, wind, some rain and lots of dirt! It is very easy to clean, and I finally have all my horse stuff in one safe place. I am very happy with it.

I have had mine in full sun, temperatures ranging from 16 to 95 degrees. So far, no fading and no warping at all.

We have had the set for about 8 weeks. It is on an uncovered patio near a pool. There is a metal bar on the back of the chairs about 8 inches from the top of the fabric. My guess is they are not aluminum as the chair frames are supposed to be. They started to exhibit a slight bit of rust on a few chairs by the welds on these bars. We bought some black rustoleum spray paint and that took care of the problem. Not sure what you mean by weather proof. They dry very quickly after being rained on.

It has a high heat resistance finish, so I beleive it will hold up to the direct sunshine. Recently puchased this sink and we are glad we did.
