can this be used outside? I plan to use it under my deck for pool towels etc..

Well it is metal so I do think if outside it might rust. I guess if humidity is not an issue and you keep relatively dry then okay.

If it is protected from the elements, I would think it was ok. Although I would bring inside for rain/snow.

Hi Larry, not sure if it would rust! Nice idea though, as long as it says dry--might work!

If the surface is flat and dry (concrete or asphalt) yes u can use it outdoors however as a one time thing.- it wouldnt last outdoors if it rained or got damp - the unit is plastic and the turf/run is a good enought turf quality to last outdoors for use - as long you bring it indoors at the end of its use!

It can be used outside. But it's not as visible than when you use it indoors

I have mine in a Pump House along with my pool pump, Salt Generator controls and Sand Filter. I am sure that the outdoor elements will shorten the life of the pump but think it can be used outside. Mine did not come with an "Indoor Use Only" label or directions.

No. I believe it can only be used outside. I've only used it outside and it works great.

I see no reason why it can't be used outdoors. However, be aware that it's designed to hold only a few light items - I doubt the string would last long if, for example, you put large wet bath towels on it. Also, the string might quickly deteriorate from outdoor exposure to UV light, and it's not at all clear if it can be easily replaced.

I don't know why it couldn't be used outside. It is all plastic (or something like that). It seems like it would be water proof. Moisture might make it slippery and therefore not too safe; maybe that is why it is listed for indoor use.

I have used mine outside and it worked great no issues. My guess would be moisture and such that may cause problems.

I have not used it outside. Given the low price and free shipping, I'd give it a shot. You'd have to weight the legs or lay it down when not in use if you have wind. You MIGHT think about some silicone to squirt around the connections and beneath bolts as you tighten and then over them once it's done to prevent rain and splashes from getting in and rusting it right away. Also, it's light enough that you could pick it up and move it inside when not in use. Another thing, you could leave out the middle section and make it shorter for kids so they don't pull on a towel and pull it over. None of these things tested, just mentioning them as ideas.

Yes it can be used for outdoor items. And it does dry clear. Follow the directions and you will have success.

I think the manual says it can be used outside. We have only used ours inside.

No, It is indoor use only. It will work outside, but eventually the moisture will cause it to fail prematurely.

I would imagine you could have it outside. Very durable bag, just wouldn't want it to get rained on a lot. Mine is outside under a deck enclosure and has endured the Minnesota humidity.

They are designed to screw down on to a deck so I am not sure if able to use outside of a pool. This brand must make a ladder type step that will look similar. These steps are very nice, recommend them.

I would not use this outdoors unless it was protected from water/moisture. Fire/injury risk if it gets wet, not sealed to be waterproof.

Depends on where you would place it outside. It should not be exposed to an area that can et wet, such as rain or snow because it is paper. But this is great quality and looks so realistic. Maybe if you have a patio or a place where it can be seen without exposing it to consistent water, I wouldn't see why you can't.

I don't really know if it can be used outside or not. I use it as intended for my plants. My cats love it when there is enough space for them to lay on and look out the window. ( I have a few these heat mats). The directions say to wipe up moisture when spilled water lands on it.
