Is it airtight? Think it's strong enough to resist raccoons if i put it outside at night?

I don't believe it is airtight. It is a light weight plastic--I doubt it would be able to resist raccoons though. Even if they couldn't get into it, they would probably be able to turn it over, move it, or drag it somewhere.

Definitely not, it has not resisted my dog's very first effort! all he needed was to scratch on the cover once to get it to open. i ended up making a diy contraption with the feeder on the top and a pipe down to his bowl, high enough for him not to reach. i would only recommend it for a hamster maybe, or a similar size pet!

Not sure if it is 100% airtight or raccoon proof...I only use it indoors for my cat's early morning feeding so works perfectly for that. It is lightweight so I'm pretty sure that even a very hungry kitty might be able to break into it...so you may want to consider a more heavy duty feeder.

No. There's no airtight seal. Unless you bolt it down the raccoons will pick it up and take it with them...or tear it up trying to get it open.

I would not leave it outside if you have raccoons, they will be able to smell the food and will attack! I had to bolt mine down so my cat would stop trying to open it, which is as annoying as it sounds and would result in spilled food when it sprung open sideways or upside down or would be wedged somewhere so it wouldn't open at all.

No I do not think it is air tight. The top flap just folds down to cover it.

It is not air tight, we have to secure it or he pushes it all over. Once he got it open by manipulating the timer with all the banging it around.

It's not air tight. We use it to store our cushions as well and some moisture does get in as the lid does not close tightly - especially if the cushions are in there snugly. We have to put a weight on top to keep the lid down.

I would say YES. We have raccoons in our area and they didn't get in. Only drawback is it's not that large.

It certainly is not airtight, but i don't think it has enough ventilation to put a computer inside the lockable compartment and run it for an extended period of time. There are a few decent sized holes for cords to run in and out of, but no real "vent. "

The air holes on the sides are too small for rodents to get through, but I suppose they could chew into the bin. I have found raccoon prints on the sides several times so I know it keeps them out.

I don't recall that the seal was "airtight" once opened, and the inside did not have an extra lining. It seemed to "keep" very well, but I supposed you could break it up and vacuum seal what isn't used in the near term.

We hang it from a tree limb under a round roof-baffle thing in an attempt to foil the rascally raccoons. Rain is not an issue. Raccoons are. We are happy with the feeder; it is quite well made.

Yes it can but other animals such as skunks and raccoons can get to it. Its weatherproof. All plastic.

Yes. It's a thick canvas like material. I would not leave it out overnight though.

There is no weather proof seal. I would not suggest it unless you had some secondary cover for it. I use this purely to hold some items out of reach of the wandering nephews and quick access for myself. This is far from high security or what I would use as outdoor security

I have had excellent results. It's more like hardware cloth than chicken wire (which is a good thing!) and is stapled very securely. If a raccoon is going to get into this, it's going to be from underneath. The coop end is heavy and pretty secure, but the fenced in area in the right of the pic can be lifted easily. I put cinder blocks all the way around it and have had no problems. I would buy this coop again. I hope this helps.

Not very air tight. I will be applying caulk around the outside of box where it passes through the door.

It will do the job but you cannot keep it on over night due to carbon monoxide poisoning. I use it sporadically in my garage as a hideout but the garage has a lot of drafts so I can leave it on for a while but never in an enclosed area or you will be tenting for the last time!

I would say yes, it's air tight. There is a rubber seal around the top and it snaps closed. (There is no doubt it is closed tight with the snap) I love mine and even though the contents is several months old, the product is staying fresh

No it is not airtight. I would not suggest it for something that needs to be stored in a airtight container

It seems to stay dry, but it's not out in the weather. It is under the eaves of my patio. It might get damp inside if it was in direct rain. You could put a "lock" on it to keep the lid tight down and that should help.

No, I don't think it is airtight. There is no sealing material between the lid and box. Nor is there any on the "hinge-y" part of the lid.
