Does this get water inside when it storms? Or is it sealed fairly well?

Mine has never had water get inside. It may help that it's up against my shed, but it stays dry.

Mine stays 'completely' dry.... I like my shed very much. I was able to install some "S" hooks to hang a few tools and it turned out great. I would recommend this shed to anyone.... Good luck Tom

I'd recommend purchasing a roll of the rubber weather strip you can find at hardware stores if you get some heavy rainstorms where you live. If you step inside the unit you'll see some light shining in small areas and that's where I would add the weather strip. Otherwise in areas with light showers like we get in San Diego-- I'd say it would be fine without the added weather strip.

It is pretty water tight. WE have had only one rain since I installed them a couple of months ago. The three wall panels click together and are secured by the roof and base. I don't have the hand strength I used to have and felt I did not press the walls together completely and did not hear a click sound. I did get them pressed together sufficiently for the roof and base to fit securely. I think the units are well made and Amazon's price with free shipping is good value. I recommend the units and would buy more.

Mine has not been soaked, but it has withstood rain just fine.But, if you have any doubt I would go ahead and treat it with a water protector.

The box is made of molded plastic panels that over lap and snap together and the top fits over a ridge at the top of the sides, front and back panels so rain can not enter. None of the joints are sealed tight but if water got inside it would drain out the bottom. If standing water rose high enough over the bottom floor it would get to the box contents.My box is kept out on a boat dock exposed to rain and wind and I have not had any problems with contents getting wet. I have had mine since my review and it is still in great shape.If I was going to store charcoal I would set the bags on something to keep them a little above the floor.

It worked just fine in the rain. It seems to be sealed really well and a solid little cycling computer.

Water runs off the top. We've had some major storms this summer and nothing has gotten wet inside the box. This is a great purchase.

The roof does not cover the floor, the floor sticks out a few inches further. So if it rains you will get water inside. It is only a sun and wind shelter, not rain

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.

I have not had a problem with it leaking water but the seams are not sealed. It's a great box overall and has come in very handy for me.

I have had it for about a month and it has rained on it several times actually. The water just drains through. It seems to be holding up well, but I would think over time it might dry rot or have others problems if left out for several seasons in a row. I will put it inside in the Winter.

No the battery compartment isnt sealed so water could get in if directly exposed to rain. But I had mine attached under a tarp for 3 months and many hard rain storms with out any problems.

Yes. Water pools on the tops of them every time it rains here. They don't make a water-tight seal so if you get a lot of wind with your rain, or you ride your bike underwater, you shouldn't count on a bone dry interior.

Before we filled this with plants, we put it outside with the plugs left in. It rained, and it did hold water. I didn't check to see if it leaked, though. If I planned on using it indoors, I'd probably put a tray under it to catch drips. Indoor plants need proper drainage, too.

It does great. Just had a huge storm last night & everything stayed dry inside.

It does surprisingly well, however it probably won't keep your dog dry during the rain if that is what you are looking for. We took this camping with us last summer and we had some pretty nasty storms come through with potential for tornados. We didn't take the time to take down the tend and it was still standing with no damage the next morning. It was wet on the inside because it doesn't have a door and there are "air slits" on the other 3 sides.

The exterior is not waterproof but because the inside is I have never had an issue and it has been soaked.

No. It is not watertight. It has no rubber seals to prevent water from entering it if you held it under water. But it would probably keep light rain out if exposed. And if it is under a car you should have no problem unless you drive through deep water or shoot water under pressure directly on it.

We love it and have it under a overhang on our deck. It does have slats on the top and sides that have small openings (1/4"ish) and louvre front so I would imagine if it were set in direct weather things would get wet inside eventually. We plan to put a piece of plastic on the top to help keep things even more dry. Hope that helps!
