How is the insulation?

The canvas is water proof, but because of two openings the rain does get inside especially if you have an open porch. I would think if one of the openings was just a little bit smaller it might help keep the elements out.

Well, here in Alabama it doesn't get Freezing out...but it just recently got to 35 at nite... I just added one of those "fluffy" throw blankets in the house and the cat was fine.... I didn't even plug in the mattress.... I have the house in the corner of the covered porch, which I'm sure helps versus on the groud outside. I really do like the house....

can't tell without cutting it open. i put ours under our picnic table and covered it with a tarp so they would be out of the snow and rain.

It's nice and warm inside the cat house. It's on my front porch for an outside cat, and last night's temperature was 44F (Philadelphia, PA). When you stick your hand inside the cat house, it's soooo nice.

I am not sure I can answer that. The material this is made of is canvas like and feels like foam inside the canvas. It wouldn't let air in but there is an opening on both ends to allow kitty to escape. The house is very light weight and put together with Velcro. I put mine up next to the wall because I have mine in a screened porch and not worried about predictors. My cat uses it all winter but I live in north Florida. Hope this helps. Patsy

I would not count on it since there are two door openings. The heating pad is just enough to make the cat more comfortable while sitting inside.we have not gone thru cold weather yet plus the cats have not used it yet.

The walls are kind of a nylon/canvas and are about 1/2 inch thick. I don't think air gets through the walls, but there are two openings, covered by plastic that swings either way. Since I keep this on my porch, it stays dry. The coolest temps here get in the 20's, so it's fine for most cold nights, but I keep a warming lamp nearby as well for the coldest nights. I don't think I would recommend this for bitterly cold temperatures.

Thin to none. This must be placed in a covered area protected from rain and wind.

Not really, the insulation is spotty and doesn't maintain heat well in too cold of temperatures.

It gets warm quickly. There's no insulation. I wore a padded bra under mine and vodka out of the freezer. I had to alter mine to fit the right way too though and was able to fit it that way.

This is my first winter and, so far, the cover is holding up well. However, I live in Northern California and the temperatures are relatively mild.

It is wrapped in polyurethane. It doesn't need to be insulated. You tube has videos on how to install it yourself!

No insulation, but fairly tight seal. Shouldn't have any problems transporting a smoothie. I've got two of these things and they work great! Definitely worth the minute amount of cash.

Very minimal insulation. I'd look at something different for hot drinks. I never tried hot drinks but it didnt keep cold ones very cold. It seems like nothing more than a big plastic container for liquids.

I've used it for extended periods and find it pretty comfortable. And I use it in a non air conditioned room, but relatively cool.

i feel very comfortable -- it is hard for me to say whether it is cold or warm as people feel differently. It is breathable - I would say it will keep you cool. I have used for more than 4 weeks now. It has improved my sleep quality. Good luck!

It is warm to the touch, not hot. I have mine at the bottom of the safe with the mounts kinda wedged under the door lip.

It is VERY warm, that's actually one thing I definitely like about it. Unfortunately my husband finds it to be too hot, so that combined with the somewhat scratchy feel of it is what's kept us from using it regularly. It's basically for decoration in our room at this point when we want to make the bed up nicely. But yes, it's definitely warm!

So far so good. I live just outside of Boston and have mine mounted at the peak of the roof and entirely exposed. We've had a lot of cold and snow already this year and it seems to be holding up. I only installed in September of this year so haven't made it through a full winter yet.

No insulation in the walls at all. Maybe good in Florida or California, but not good under temp 45 or below. It is very light weight plastic so if you get strong winds it can blow over.

It's decently insulated. It would keep food drinks cool for a couple hours without ice I'd think. We use cooler packs a lot which are nice because they don't melt

It's definitely well insulated. Appears to be some type of expanding foam, probably 3/4" or more thick judging from wall thickness. I can say that if you run it at 195F for 14 hours with outdoor temp in the 60-70 range, it's hard to detect any surface heat with your hand on the door or sides.

We live in Baltimore and it get's pretty steamy here, I have never noticed the fabric of this carseat being any warmer than usual. As for breathable, she's not a sweaty mess when we take her out. I never really thought about it. I think it's fine

Not too bad. I have slept on a memory foam that is a lot warmer to sleep on.
