How water proof is it? As in if you lay it over damp grass, will it still soak thru to your clothes?

Not waterproof at all, it's made for the beach. It's like a thin parachute material that will get damp and hold dampness until the sun dries it. For beach, not grass.....

it dries quickly and keeps moisture off. I haven't used it on damp grass as I've only used at the beach (it is perfect at the beach). My guess would be lightly damp ok, really damp will leak through.

I don't think it's waterproof at all. The material is just thin nylon. It doesn't feel like it has a water resistant coating or anything.

I wouldn't say water proof, it's proved rather durable and water resistant to walking through the rain. I've had it in some down poor's and the items inside stayed dry. Just be sure and dry it out thoroughly before putting it away.

I would not say 'fully' water proof. I feel comfortable having if it is raining and I am not going to be out in it an extended amount of time. I will add though I am very paranoid about my gear getting wet so I might be overly cautious.

Yes i have worn this in heavy rain! It keeps you dry! My pants were soaked, and took off my coat and was 100% dry!

No it does not keep you dry. The fabric will allow rain to drip through. Sure is nice though for keeping an area cooler though. I have two over an area where I do some potting and it helps a lot.

I wouldn't call it "waterproof"....but it does a good job of keeping the seat dry underneath. Water beads up on mine and is easily wipes off. It doesn't absorb water and wet your bum when you sit down. The pockets in the back are mesh, so anything in them will get wet if left in the rain.

It's not waterproof, but I've biked in the rain with it (not on purpose of course LOL) and it's held up just fine. It's not slippery fabric so you don't slip and slide on it. It dries pretty quickly too.

I never leave it out in the rain, mainly because of the wind. They do suggest, however, that you can waterproof it by spraying it with Scotchguard or similar product and letting it dry before installation.

I wouldn't recommend it. Sweat proof, yeah...but I wouldn't say it's rain proof.

Yes it is damp rated. I'm not sure about wet-rated, but from the way it was constructed with rubber covers in critical areas, I think it might be. I can't see how water could get to it.

It looks pretty weatherproof. I have one under cover but the other one is SW facing and gets wet occasionally. I do not recall any statements in the instructions relative to keeping it dry or out of the sun. They seem built for the outdoors. Good luck!

I doubt is is waterproof. But haven't tried. Easily runs in grass gravel and dirt.

It is waterproof . My husband also sprayed a water repellant fabric spray on it too, for good measure.

No it would absorb water and be too heavy and then dry out and shrink. Not weather proof.

The fabric is fairly water repellent but probably not fully waterproof. It's a nylon fabric, coated on the inside with something shiny. I bought it for using in a tiny town in Mexico and left it there, so I can't look at it now. The top of the fabric bag has a drawstring and it has a flap over that so I'm sure that unless you're in a monsoon, it'd keep at least most of the water out.

I would guess that it is not water 'proof' - maybe best described as moisture-resistant. It would depend on the amount of liquid, whether it soaks through. It is machine washable though.

Mine has not been soaked, but it has withstood rain just fine.But, if you have any doubt I would go ahead and treat it with a water protector.
