Is this grill waterproof and can I use it in the rain

I do not use any electric appliance in the rain. If one does he is looking for trouble. I own 2 of these grills,one up north and one downsouth in our winter home. They are the greatest.

It is as water proof as any grill, but for the life of me I don't understand why anyone would try to use it in the rain. The electrical connections are "some what" shielded. Me personally I would not take the chance. But as far as it doing the job, I prefer it over any other one I have had. It goes with me in the motor home and has done an effective job. Even use it at home to the exclusion of the gas grill I have. Small and portable.

It is as waterproof as any covered grill is. If it is the electrical connections that you are asking about they are quite well covered and enclosed and the cord is sealed plastic like any cord these days. I don't worry about it, it does fine in any rain I am willing to stand out in. But,to use it in a downpour would be pretty silly.

I have mine on the outside but under a roof on the deck, we use it year round out there. I would say no to any electrical product being used in rain.

I can't truly answer your question. Personally, my logic tells me, I would be taking an enormous mistake by using ANY piece of electric equipment while it was raining. To big of a chance of an electrical shock. So, no I would not use it in the rain. Doesn't mean that it can't be done though.

It def. Is! Ive ridden in very heavy rain and I have not had a single problem. As long as youre not physically dipping it in water, rain water is not an issue. And to top it off, I had a problem with mine a while back due to it not charging and amazon customer service was AMAZING. Product was replaced and sent to me in ONE day. Recommend you purchase!

Not water proof. It's just a screen net in shape of a tent to hold the food inside. If it rains the water will get to the food.

I don't think it is water proof. Back cover isn't sealed. If you need to use it outside in the rain, put it in a zip lock bag.

Don't know if it is "rainproof" but it is electronic therefore I would not use it if out in the rain for an extended time. It does detach from the bracket so you could secure it from the weather.

The unit is weather resistant so it should be fine in normal rain, but it is not water-proof, so it obviously shouldn't be submerged.

I believe there is a net which dissipates humidity which gathers under the heavy vinyl covering ( I think that is the reason it is there ) but I keep my bbq under the house overhang and thus it is not subjected to downpours although the cover of does get wet in the rain. It has never given me a problem however with dirt and water inside the covering. It is dusty eventually under the cover as it is outside, but a wipe with a damp rag and windex takes care of that and of course the cover is closed on the grill itself so my cook surface is secure from rain and dirt in any case.

It is water repellant. As far as water proof, I'm not sure about that. I have not had it out in any big rainstorms yet.

It holds up to heat well. But do not leave it outside in the rain as is is not waterproof. I bring mine inside after every grill session and it works wonderfully every time.

Aloha Cheryl Thus far I have no problems, however I would think that IF you have moderte to high winds with the rain, that you might have a problem with 'crosswinds' carrying the rain onto your grill tables. I position my grill from north to south as the rain/wind mostly comes from the south.

I have had it on the grill since we bought it and it rains and snows in Indiana and it has held up very well. My husband loves it!

I've had mine three years. I have had to replace the top grill and the grate the charcoal is broken, but it still works like a charm. I live it the wet NW coast so it is always humid, but I have avoided leaving it out in the rain.

I would say it is water resistant for use in the rain, but I would not use it underwater. I don't recall anything mentioned in the packaging material saying it was for use underwater or being waterproof.

I leave mine outside, but it's under the cover for the grill. It sometimes gets a little damp, but not super wet. Seems pretty durable but I don't know.

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.

No, I don't think so. It is not watertight. Only 2 screws hold the back cover and when you unscrew them and remove the cover, you'll gonna see the motor and plastic gears inside. Definitely cannot be used in the rain. One plus though is it has good enough power.

It is made out of a plastic card board so you can keep it outside and not worry about it getting wet. Mine has been in several rainstorms without a problem except for the lack of sun to cook with.
