What is the wind resistance? If I leave it up all winter do I need to be concerned?

Hi R . Michael, There is no definition for wind resistance with this. The Gazebo is all weathered proof and made for all seasons. Exclusive Home & Furniture Inc

it is thin and will blow away. I thought of the same thing. It is too small and no bottom. I use a rubbermaid basket and a heating blanket for the floor. I cover the basket with a blanket and set it in a corner and put bricks on top to weigh it down from the winter wind. Also try hay or straw and make a fort type thing.

Ours is packed away for the winter but I'm pretty sure it's about 1.5 or more. It's a very sturdy pole. We live near shore area and have wind and it seems to have held up well

I use mine as a stand-a-lone. It went thru the entire winter with all the snow and wind and did not fall over. I really like it a lot, well made

I had problems with sustained winds and rain. So I imagined lots of snow but also be a problem. The side that has the single support will move around a lot in the wind and get weighed down by water.

I haven't had it through a winter yet. I will bring mine in for winter because humming birds migrate south. I did have it in a bad spot for wind and it got blown off, but did not damage it at all. I have now stuck it to a window that doesn't get as much wind and it has been there for a few months not with no issues at all.

It is pretty sturdy all right, but uncertain about snow load. You would need to ask the company about that. I have kept mine up all year with rain and wind and no damage. I love Coolaroo.

No it doesn't. I live in New England and left it out all winter and it was just fine. It's also heavy enough that the strong winds we have had have not made it move an inch. Love my heater ( though up here it's more for the view than the heat).

Answer here...I have 7ft posts every roughly 6ft and I left it up all winter. I am in cental ny snow country. My only down side to it is the 2in size. Small bunnies can get through it. Worked well against deer trying to jump over it

I have mine in a protected area from the wind. It is a corner of my 7' privacy fence. It is my opinion that this green house would not hold up in high winds in an open area.

Mine is under a pergola (which is attached to my deck) and have never had a problem with wind. I actually have 3 shades under there and not a problem all season.

I would suggest dissembling it for winter if you aren't going to use it. It stands up well, but it doesn't hurt to keep it out of the elements when you can!

Its nice, but not for winter snow or overly windy. ALos tie it down nice. Its about 20 lbs, I believe. I use it over my hoty tub, pop it back into the carry case it came with.

I have not had problems with wind on my unit. Will lose reception due to rain or snow, but that's a symptom of satellite TV. Could your unit not be anchored well, i.e., not correctly mounted or could your roof be flexing or rig move as others suggested as possibility, or could there be leaves or limbs blowing to impact the view of the satellites?

Yes. I have had mine for about a year. However, you should note that when you have a 50-60 MPH wind event, you'll have to inspect the structure as the poles may come apart. I think this is reasonable. And, you'll need a broom to coax a snow or ice load off the roof's surface day to day. Accumulation of ice is accute at the edge of the roof and must be periodically inspected and maticulously removed.Tom Lehmann

I have mine in a sheltered spot on my porch so can't answer to how it stands up to high wind but being round with feet on front and back and right on the ground I don't think it would blow over. Good little house but I would try to shelter it from the weather.
