Just how waterproof is the Carbon Full-Cycle Twill? I would need it to survive a Boston winter.

it poured yesterday here in NYC and I was walking in the rain about 6 block to my car with no umbrella. The contents in my bag where still dry. It does a good job I would say. I had 10 manilla envelopes in my bag and none were affected by water.

Yes... I covered 1/2 cord of firewood with it and following 14 inches of snow last week it proved itself to be waterproof!

I don't have experience with the snow, but mine is adequate for the rain. I am pleased with this product so far and consider it a small investment to protect my mower.

It looks like it could withstand an occasional rain or light snow storm. I wouldn't let it sit outside the whole summer without protection, nor let snow pile up around it. Nonetheless, this is just my speculation as I've never had opportunity for it to get rained or snowed upon.

I have to say I was worried about the warranty, etc. We purchased in the spring and have had no problems this summer even with wet weather. I would recommend it.

I've used it heavily over the past three days after a 12" and 7" snowfall. The heavier snow took a little bit more care so as not to trip the circuit breaker, but it handled packed and wet slushy snow just fine. This morning I cleared a 150x45 parking area for a local church without any trouble at all. It kept up well with a gas powered snow blower! I had to be careful when attacking the packed clumps of snow along the edge where the county snow plows had been, but this little snow beast didn't skip a beat. One tip - check the blades after a couple of hours of use and make sure to tighten any which are loose. I've used it heavily over the past three days after a 12" and 7" snowfall.

Semi waterproof. I've dropped it in the snow and on the ice. No damage occured . I wouldn't submerge it.

"Weather" proof-yes. "Waterproof"-no. It will take some water like if you left it out in the rain over night, itd be fine but it wont be fine if you drop it in the lake.

I had it outside for the summer through the fall and it endured a number of rainstorms. I haven't tried keeping it out in the winter, but I think it would do fairly well. The metal is strong and has a good powder coating on it, though I wouldn't press my luck if it was going to come in contact with salt over the winter. Regardless, it's easy enough to disassemble and store in a garage or basement.

I've had it only for this summer but if you were to cover it when you winterize your system it should be fine. It looks like it would survive freezing if you forgot to cover it during winter but it may shorten its life.

It is very water proof. I live in New Hampshire and it has taken a pounding this winter and done it well.

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.

Well I bought a waterproof bag to haul it on my boat I wouldn't let it just get rained on I had a regular eton. Rukus and it got wet and would hold a charge because I left it Un covered in the boat and I haven't noticed any overheating issues yet

I have used it on many of hunts in the rain, snow and cold. I would say its weathproof.

I love mine. Yes water proof. But make damn sure you don't hire an idiot to wash your bike. He power washed the speaker directly into the speaker grill. The inner cone popped loose and I asked Kuryakyn for a replacement speaker. Was told they only replace the entire unit. Looked elsewhere for one that would fit. Kuryakyn made sure it's an odd size. Got out my tools and glue gun and carefully repaired it myself.

Absolutely. I left it out all year and I live in Boston. No issues. Great purchase.

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.
