can you put this outside

I wouldn't, but I suppose it would depend on the climate in which you live. I put it in our entry way. We, and our guests use it for getting our shoes off and on

I don't think it would last very long if it was directly exposed to rain and sun. It would be fine outside under a covered patio.

The comments so far are an accurate assessment of the bench's construction. To use it outside, you need to give it a good coat of marine varnish, polyurethane, and put some kind of feet pads on the bottoms of the legs, perhaps rubber. If this were done, it would survive well outside. If you DIY, the cost of materials would be around $25.

I do not think that the finish on this wood is able to survive outdoor weather conditions. I would not put it outdoors.

maybe under a covered porch. depending where you live, you may not want to leave it out during winter

This is a beautiful well made bench. The wood of the bench is soft and so is the finish. It encourages an antique like patina rather than being cheap looking. To answer your question, enjoy the bench indoors, ONLY.

This question is older but in case the original poster or someone else still wants an answer:Yes, you can set it up outside in the winter. I would recommend putting a tarp under it to keep the bottom dry. Don't leave it out to get damp. If it does get damp / wet, set it up in your garage or similar covered area and run it till it is dry. You do not want to fold it up and put it away with it being damp. Also, I know this may be obvious, but don't set it up and run it in the rain.

Heather, I would not leave it up outside. However, it is very easy to set up and take down. Good luck.

Yes. You could use it outside. It is so versatile. I would however not keep it out there forever. Anything metal will eventually rust, but for laundry days sure!! Let the sunshine!!

I wouldn't personally use it out in weather! You may find a way to cover it or modify installation, but this is an indoor product.

not really sure about outside, but I know my son puts it up in the house/garage for the kids to use in winter.

I think it could be used outside as long it does not get rained on it has to be under a balcony or roof of some sort it is not moisture proof

Sure you can but its not going to last as long. It will rust eventually. If you need to store it outside I suggest getting a grill or lawnmower tarp to cover it and keep the elements off. You buy a cheap one on here for like $8.

There is no reason to use this product outside. It's for indoor growing so it wouldn't make sense to put it outside. If you are asking if this product is durable enough to be put outside, I would have to say no for a longterm answer. It would probably get blown over, wet, and ruin the product. Can be used in a garage, house, barn, etc..

You can, but I would prefer to keep it inside. It is painted and colorful. If you leave it outdoors, it will fade and won't look as nice. Maybe if you can paint over it with a clear seal coat, then it would probably do well outside!!

Depends, it is not sealed, made for indoor use, you can use it outside, as long as it's not raining or wet. Mine is attached to my roll-about garage workbench, I use it in the garage and the driveway.

Yes, but I would put a coat of clear finish on it so that it doesn't rot. I did and it looks great outside!

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

Yes it can be mounted outside. I have had 2 of them outside for almost 6 years

You can use this outside, but if it gets wet it is done. Also direct sun will melt it.

Yes, definitely can use outside. The only risk is going down any slope, there are no brakes, so flat areas are best. My kids love it, and well built, had it for over a year now.
