I'm looking for something that I can lay scuba equipment on to dry off in the grass or beach - does this mesh allow for water drainage?

Water will drain, but sand will also come through as it's not a really tight weave. It would be great on the grass. Hope that helps.

It has a water drain near one corner, but I never use it. I deflate the pool after three a days use and get the water out that way.

The mesh bag is designed to catch large debris. The finer particles can be collected by your pond filter. I leave the small debris on my lawn, as it is good fertilizer.

Yes it is porous material so the water will seep through if you water slowly. It also blocks the sun from drying out the ground so you will have to water less.

Yes. It has a plug at the bottom-side to empty. I used it for a planter to plant veggies. I had to drill extra holes on bottom for drainage.

No not really. There are lots if vents for drainage. This is the best spinner we've ever had. I'd recommend one.

I used it to camp on the beach in Eureka and it was dry all around when I woke up. I rolled it up and put it in the sack and there was no moisture or wet spots. Never used it in the rain.

Yes, we use ours on the grass and just fill it with water like you would a kid pool to help keep you cool in the heat (the water heats up as well so it might help to refill it occasionally with cold water).

Hi, this is Steve from Aqua Products. This unit comes with both fine and mesh bags - at the beginning of the season any really dirty use the mesh and then go to fine. Thant should do it.

Granite Gear now makes a really cool compression bag that is also waterproof. It's called "Granite Gear AirVent DryBloc Solid".

Well, it will keep you covered, and it will definitely dry you, but it's not going to provide either insulation value or wind protection. It should shed sand ok, but it's not designed to be handling real dirt...softeners and bleaches will decrease it's ability to hold water according to what I've read.

Are you planning to place this on grass or a paved surface? I placed mine on my potion near my pool so I placed a cloth where there drain holes are. That way it can allow the water to pass through without allowing the dirt out. I am pretty happy with mine and am even thinking of buying more. Good luck with yours!

Just mesh on the sides. We used it for the beach only. It works out great for us. It's nice to have the sand pockets. Used it for about 20 trips to the beach so far.

Yes, on the bottom of the pool, won't drain that way. Let the air out of the tubes, its easier.

Square bag is permanent and may not be removed. I haven't tested it to submerge it in water but it will keep items dry if getting hit with waves or rain. I am reluctant to use the term 'waterproof'.

It does have a plug for emptying water. I would think it would work best on grass. You can put it on cement but I would put a tarp under it first before you fill it so the bottom doesn't rub and get a hole. We u se it indoors for a ball pit. It would be a good size for a toddler or young kids water pool though. It is much deeper then most blow up. Pools I have had which is nice and why I got it. Also it is very durable has held up very well for months of 5 kids age 6 and under jumping in and out and climbing all over it and the sides. No leaks.

There is a W541 optional disposable bag which is finer. I made my own bags from drain tubing socks to catch silt. Both fit inside the mesh bag.
