Can this table/bench be left out in the rain?

It is easy to fold up. But I recall reading that others have left it outside.

I would guess that if you had any worn spots on the paint it could rust a bit. Mine seems to be a very sturdy table for the money and I have been leaving it outside. I do try and keep the sprinkler off of it and plan to put it away for the winter. A little rain hasn't hurt mine!

As far as the plastic is concerned, it would probably hold up just fine in the rain. I'd be more worried about the sun causing discoloration (ie. fading) of the table since the table is not fully white, but a kind of light gray. The metal legs may suffer damage in the rain. They are coated with paint; however, in setting up the table and taking it back down, you are constantly moving the metal legs and locking them in place. In doing so, some of the paint inevitably rubs off and may rust in the rain.

If it is on a covered porch. It is a great table butnitbis wood and could be damaged by rain.

My father thinks it is ok in the rain because top of table is plastic (although he has not experienced pouring rain on it). It won't disintegrate like the tables with the brown cardboard-ish material on top.

No, I would not leave it outdoors, but you could use it outdoors if there is NO chance of it getting wet.

not weather resistant, its a gorgeous, sturdy, beautiful wooden bench. If left outside it will swell.

I think it would be best not to leave it outside. Rain and wind would probably damage it. It seems very delicate.

I would suggest a good coat of polyurethane or a coat of exterior paint to protect the bench if you were going to keep it outside, even on a covered balcony. The finish is ok, but I doubt it would withstand moisture on a regular basis.

I honestly don't know how it would affect the integrity of the table, however, it isn't a huge table so would be nice under the shade of your umbrella if it was situated near it!!

My table is used indoors exclusively, and with a table cloth, so rain/weather is not an issue for me.

Yes, it can be left outdoors in the rain, but we like to bring it indoors if we're expecting very heavy rain, just to be safe. I wouldn't leave it out in the winter if your area gets cold and snowy.

We have ours indoors. I suppose it would be "okay" if it doesn't get wet however there are tables meant for outdoors. Otherwise, it's a great table.

Not really. The cushions can be removed and stored. Or you can buy all weather covers. I live in Florida and they have been in intense sun and rain for two years with no problems.

this could be left out and used as a patio table. If weather got rough, I would take it in to keep from getting blown around. Folds and stores easily. Very serviceable.

Well my furniture is under a patio but from the material that the cushions are made of, it should be fine in the rain. Water seems to repel off pretty well

Absolutely. I wouldn't leave it out in the rain though the legs are metal they might rust a little.

I personally don't leave it outside, I fold it up and bring it inside. It's light enough that this is not an inconvenience to do and since it's the perfect size for our small table and it took me awhile to find this umbrella, I don't want to risk having it get ruined.

I would say no because surface of the table is not metal. The surface is somewhat water resistance, and I don't think it is water and weather proof.
