Is the shipping weight accurate? Is this really 9lbs?

Not even close to 9 lbs. I'm not really sure where that number came from but it's really off. The umbrella's are light weight and so are the adapters. Now I do need to caution that when tightening the adapters to a flash be a little gentle as I had one of them strip out the finger screw. I replaced that with a longer version though and it's back in service. Of course,, I have gorilla hands when tightening things because I don't want a flash hitting the ground because it wasn't tight. All in all the product does what it's suppose to and I can't complain. If you're looking for rough, heavy duty service though,, truly look somewhere else, because this is a little fragile. :)

I'm not sure it seems to be pretty light. The product information says the shipping weight is eleven pounds.

I just received mine all in one box. 2ft x 2ft x 5ft. The label said it was 97lbs

I did not weigh it, but the package is basically solid wood. I recommend using the same carrier who delivers it :). While I obviously don't know your situation, would you consider having it delivered to it directly to the final destination - It would surely be less expensive than shipping it twice.

Just re-weighed everything, with the product box -- the box with all the printed info on it, the one you'd see on the shelf in a retail store (not the shipping box; I don't have that anymore). Comes to 4 lb. 9.75 oz., which is 4.61 lb. (since there are 16 oz per pound). The product details section of the Amazon listing says that the shipping weight is 4.2 pounds. So, if anything, it looks like the seller is charging *less* than the actual weight...

The shipping wt is 29.2 pounds. So I believe it's safe to assume it weights less than 29.2 pounds.

Hi Zulay, the corrected shipping weight for this item is 8 pounds and the dimension of the box is 40 x 8 x 8" Best regard, Henry

I do not know the actual, accurate weight, but - it is lightweight. I would think even packaged for shipping it wouldn't be more than 5#.

It lists the shipping weight on the bottom as 10 lbs and that's about right. It's easy to lift and move.

no....it weighed maybe 5 or 6 pounds. i came shipped in its orginal narrow rectangular box; no additional packaging or outter box.

No it's not 10 pounds! It probably weighs 2 or 3 at most! You should be fine!

the shipping weight is 9# so the actual weight would be a little less than that........

It's 40lbs. Btw, having a 40lb bag shipped straight to your door without having to haul it around anywhere is well worth the extra few $s, IMHO.

When packaged it weighs 10-12 kg, so I guess the item itself, when assembled, weighs around 9 kg

The first one I ordered had 3lbs on the box but they state it as heavier so they can charge more on the shipping. Since then they have started removing the weight from the shipping labels so not to get caught out on their scam.

I would email Amazon and ask, just to make sure they don't charge you the 16 pound shipping weight which is obviously wrong. You are right though, I believe (if I remember correctly), the weight listed on the shipping label when I purchased it, was like 4 or 5 pounds.

You are correct, the weight in Amazon is inaccurate. It is actually 19.7 lbs. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
