How waterproof is it? Has anyone had this in a hefty rainstorm?

This is my second one. Although I haven't installed this one yet, the one on my old jeep went through several rain storms with no issues at all

Is this water-proof? I mean, can I walk in the rain with it without fearing that my laptop and my books are going to get wet?

I've only used it in a light drizzle, and it worked fine. I wouldn't recommend it for a heavy rain because it is made of a cloth blend and probably wouldn't repel water very well. This will work fine in light rains, though.

I was only in heavy rain for about a minute but it seems water proof. The fabric didnt absorb the water and there was a lot of droplets on the surface

It's not waterproof. You could only use it outside if it was completely protected from the rain .

It is water proof but I have on occasion had parts of the bike wet after a heavy rainstorm.

I checked with my son, and he said it has kept his laptop protected and dry. He said he hasn't really had it in heavy rain though.

Actually, I don't know if it's waterproof. I haven't used it in the rain so far. I haven't assumed that it is though, although it could be water resistant.

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.

Not waterproof per say. I've run with it in the rain and haven't had any problems. Depends on if the water will get into the headphone jack opening at the top of the phone.

I havent had a chance to use it when it has been raining or tried soaking it in water :-). But it looks to be waterproof or water resistant though.... If it has some issues i will post it up here on that...

It is water proof . Though its not storm proof. Heavy rain will get in bottom-up.

It isn't 100% water proof, it Does good in heavy rain. Water doesn't get inside the case unless you directly pour a bunch of water above the plastic bar going across top of the screen.

I have ridden in the rain with no problem. If you leave your bike outside for long, I suggest you unsnap the computer unit and bring it inside. That feature works very easily.

I don't think it is waterproof. It is a heavier material though and it doesn't soak through easily. I've never had a problem with it being in the rain. the outside gets wet, but never the inside.

I haven't used it in the rain, but I've definitely used it after it rained. I actually have it permenantly bolted to a car trailer that sits outside. I've had no issues.
