I would like to use this bag to store small containers of playdough. Would the weight be too much?

the top opening is the feature I like least about this purse, so I think taking containers out of it would be awkward. Just my opinion
222568
Don't know...the opening is small and it may be hard to get the containers in and out....But as a purse as I use it, I love it!!!

Probably not, it's a pretty sturdy bag, it should hold as much as will fit.

I don't think the weight would be too much. My only concern for it as a carrier for play dough is that the opening at the top might be a little small and inconvenient. The opening is 6" when closed, so 12" when it is open. I don't know how large the play dough containers are so I can't give a really good answer. I have learned to put my hand in the bag and feel for what I want. If it is all the same, might work well. It's the cutest thing. I love it as a purse. I get so many comments and the whimsy value is over the top. I am getting to be know as the Chicken Lady around town. (It's a small town.) I don't think the weight would be too much.

I think it would be fine for small or reg. sized play-dohs. If it sags too much on the bottom when you pick it up, you might just add some reinforcement inside (corrugated plastic maybe?). The perimeter of the bottom has a wire within the cording to keep the circular shape.

I have my craft supplies in the same containers. I wouldn't put real heavy items in them, but it works fine for me - has never been a problem at all. Good luck!

It can handle that kind of weight. However, thw wires may be an issue for paperbag products like flour and sugar: suggest you put a board on the bottom. It handles a lot of weight for me, but did not do well with 3 3 gal paint cans... too much weight and it warped the wires and the plastic arms.

Absolutely. I fit a 50lbs bag of King Arthur Sir Galahad (the wholesale name of the the All Purpose) flour in it without much issue. So I'd feel confidant in saying it will hold 20lbs of rice. You might want to actually purchase a 30lbs container instead if they make one of those since it would take up less space...I know I'm late to the party but in case someone else had a similar question. It will also hold more if you turn the container 1/4 turn to the left (so the spout comes out the top and not the side)

Not that heavy, if you have a big dog. Of course, you could put a gallon milk jug in the bottom filled with sand, or something like that. Then insert the garbage bag.

it would be tight, but if you put only one in the bottom diagonally it would work, as the bag is a liitle flexible

I would not recommend this as a (daily) diaper bag. You may want to look for something a little bit more structure/sturdiness. With all the items you listed, you will definitely feel the weight and it's contents while wearing it... hopes this helps....

Hi Debbie. If you didn't overload it, you might be okay, but it is on the narrow side and I think would tip over with too much in it. Hope that helps! :) Andie

I wouldn't, b/c most of the weight is on the rolling bag itself in the rolling position. Maybe initially, tilting back but my cheap Walmart travelers roll-on had no problems

As described online the bag is to be used to hold small items conveniently by the user. My mother has filled hers to the max but it does create a tumble issue if too much weight is added so I wouldn't depend on heavy loads in the bag.

I wouldn't recommend it for that. Containers are plastic and rack is smaller than it looks in photo.

I would have to say no. The basket is pretty short. I would go for a taller one for larger item storage.

No, the bag is large enough for two thin cookies. There is no gusset on the sides so the bag does not expand to hold more. It's basically a flat bag. I know King Arthur has what you are looking for but at a much higher price. Avery small thin sandwich might fit if you force it.

I doubt it because I don't think the bottom shelf is wide enough for something that round to balance on it. When I carry 2 50lb feed bags upright I use bungee cords. I would measure it but it's at Purdue with my daughter. Sorry but I called her and she said doubtful as well.

Weight should not be a problem-- check measurements for width of shelf to see if appliance are too large.

I purchased the backpack for school books, binders and supplies for my daughter. There is sufficient space in the backpack for these items. I'm not so sure weight would be an issue for the amount of groceries that would fit. If you are thinking of using this for small purchases at a corner market, or something along those lines, it may work. However, bulky items will obviously limit your space. You may be better off exploring a different option if you expect to purchase more than a handful of items. Additionally, this wheeled backpack would be a little difficult to clean if any of your groceries "leak" inside. I purchased the backpack for school books, binders and supplies for my daughter.

Yes, considering only the weight, it would definitely hold it. I use it to store small tools, flower pots, paint and a variety of gardening supplies.
