Can it be used outdoors on a covered porch?

Your question is probable best posed to the manufacturer or someone who has used this out doors. I did not have much experience with the bed as none of my cats would stay in it and avoided it. I would think that as long as it did not get wet, it would be worth giving it a shot for outside kitties, though I'd keep my eye on it closely for a few weeks to make sure it is holding up ok and that it is being used.

I think this model is for indoor only use, but I do think the same company makes a heated bed designed to be used outdoors.....good luck in your search, this company is great...I have had other products of theirs in the past. My cats are thrilled with these beds....my only complaint is that they are sleeping more, so they spend a little less time with me....

Yes, as long as it sheltered from rain, I have been using it in the cat house under my covered carport.

I would think so, as long as it doesn't get wet (or at least is cleaned and dried immediately if it does). The fur-like fabric is machine washable and there are two thin foam-rubber pads inside that sandwich the heating pad.

It can be used outdoors as long as you protect it from direct exposure to rain, snow, etc. I have used one successfully outdoors mounted under the overhang on a house.

I would not use it exposed to the environment maybe under a porch out of the weather but not subjected to an high winds or percipiation.

I would think it could be used on an outside porch. It doesn't have a freezer section so the whole unit runs at fridge temps.

Not in the open, the panels are material. Might be ok on covered patio. It is very nice looking and quite sturdy.

Absolutely. Mine is on a concrete slab under a covered porch. Just remember there is no floor so anything touching the floor would get wet if you had a moisture issue.

Only if it is away from ANY rain or snow...I have an enclosed front porch and it is perfect! I do not recommend leaving it on when gone from the house or when sleeping...

It is cast iron and has walnut blades. I wouldn't even think of using it even on a covered porch though I imagine people do. it is definitely an inside fan I have had three of these fans, and the housing is not enclosed. In other words, the housing of the motor is the motor, it is not just for looks. These things weigh a lot! Hope this helps. No where does it say in the instructions that it can be used outside.

yes, we have it outside under our covered patio, just a roof over it, sides are open. Works great!

Not sure it's meant for outdoor use. I would think it would be fine as long as it doesn't get rwined on.

I don't believe it is weather resistant. Depends on how protected your porch is from wind and rain.

Greetings. Would this work if located on an outdoor covered deck? I t would be set against the outside wall of house.

I'm not sure that I would use it outdoors. The hinges and moving parts would probably rust over time. It would be fine in a garage or covered area. It's a great unit, very easy to assemble, very sturdy and attractive. Purchased 2 more!

We use it in our "outdoor living room" on the covered patio. But I see no reason why it couldn't be used inside.

Ours is on a covered porch and is holding up great. I wouldn't recommend leaving it uncovered outside in the weather year-round.

Sorry, but I would not purchase this for outdoor use unless it is protected by a covering of some sort. I left mine out in the open and it was damaged after it got wet from the rain.

I think you could, not sure how long it will last in elements, I have ours on the porch.
