I live in a condo and only have a concrete patio... Do you see any disadvantage in using this product?

There is no bottom to the bin. It is designed to "dig into" the soil with small vertical tabs on the bottom of the sides. You would have to cut off those tabs, then put something heavy on top to keep it from tipping in a strong wind. Personally, I don't see it on a patio. It is compost, after all.

Not suitable, it is designed to have an earth bottom. I would not want to that close it either, take the lid off and the decomposition is accompanied by flies and other bugs. Look for another product, I would think for you one with a rotating drum might be best.

That's a tough one. Mine is set on dirt, but I don't think it needs to be to function properly. I do like mine. It was easy to put together and has produced some nice compost for my garden. Good luck.

Not sure how big your patio is but this is a decent sized bin. Mine sits directly on dirt which helps with the composting but I think if you put a good compost base down, you should be fine. This is a sturdy bin - I'm very happy with it.

Just be aware that there is no bottom to the container - so the compost will be sitting on the concrete and could stain it.

Yes, there is no bottom on this bin. It's intended to be set on the ground.

I live in a condo as well. Sometimes I roll it up and sometimes I just leave it unrolled on the patio, either way is fine. If I want it washed, I leave it unrolled, it dries pretty quickly.

We use the squeegee feature on our patio. We don't have animals, or hardwood floors, so we don't use it inside the house.

it works great, just smear it on, walk away and let it work, then i used a power sprayer and it feel right off my concrete patio. Hope this helps

the area under the table gets hot.i have it on a stone patio. perhaps you could place a flagstone or pavers underneath to protect a deck.inquires to the company might be a good idea.

I live in a condo and since moving in I bought two Shih Tzu's. Not having a yard, I wanted a place where we could spend some quality time outdoors without a lease. The turf has worked great for us on the patio. It covers the concrete so we can all roll and tumble together in our little "yard". We simply roll it up when rain is expected. With it and some plastic trees and bushes, our patio was transformed from baron concrete to our own little play ground. I appreciate the transformation each and every day.

Yes! We have a large covered patio and have the lounger there - we don't use or need the umbrella. We love it. I just wish I had more time to spend in it.

I wouldn't recommend it. I used it on my patio and it began flaking off in less than one year. Rustoleum refunded the entire amount.

Yes, actually think a patio area is ideal. I use it indoors and often have to fold it up when not in use. The mat is pretty hardy so should last.

Yes you do. It is ideal for a patio, a large deck, or on the ground. It can be bolted to a firm surface to give it stability which I would reccomend. The system is of good quality!

I don't see any reason not to set it on concrete except the depth of the plant roots you will be planting. If the are no longer than the shallowest portion (about 8-10 inches) you should be just fine. Maybe even better as I find some of our weeds in SE Tx, even find a way through black plastic!

i am sure you can use this on a patio as long as water can't get to it that can be dangerous

I Would think it would be fine. Especially if it's not a windy day. Personnelly we have a concrete patio but it is pretty small so I use it close to the grass and the grass has never caught fire or even smoldered. Actually I have never even seen sparks fly out of it.

The instructions that come with it say not to use it indoors. It burns up oxygen that people need to breathe. If needed, I planned to use mine on my brick patio once it stopped raining or snowing. I would also need to shelter it from the constant breeze or the heat would just blow away.

I think you can especially if you have a deck. The only downside I have had is that you can see the roller marks on my concrete patio but other than that it turned out great and isn't uncomfortable to walk on. I was lucky and had temps in the 80's and low humidity and it seemed to cure real fast as I was able to walk on it only after a few hours and if you furniture isn't real heavy you may be able to get away with it after a few days.

You would need an insulated fire proof pad or 4 24" x 24" concrete pavers. Nothing is safe on a wood patio without either or both! http://www.amazon.com/Fire-Resistant-Chiminea-Outdoor-Fireplace/dp/B002OMBJCU

I don't know. I didn't buy it to use concrete. I bought it to paint a pattern on my patio, which I did not do and ended up getting rid of the mold.
