I need a rack for drying clothes or hang shirts to dry. Will this rack hold up? Will it hold alot of wet clothes without falling over?

Yes, should not be a problem, I moved and no longer needed mine so I gave it to a friend that is using it for the same purpose.

I don't think it will hold a lot of heavy, wet clothes well - some, but not a huge load.

I use it in a closer under my stairs for heavy winter coats and it has been very stable. I don't have it extended the full height so I can't judge if that would make a difference.

I have no problems. I use hangers that I get when I purchase the clothes from the store. I only use shirt hangers on it. Not sure what type of hangers you use

I would definitely say "yes." Mine has been well overloaded with clothes for the past 3.5 years, and still holding up extremely well. And, yes, the rack is collapsible.

honestly have not weighed loads of clothes - it is just myself and my husband - the hamper is sturdy but flexes' when filled over capacity - works perfectly for us several loads of clothes and a few towels - hope this helps

In testing, I had more than 30# evenly distributed on the rod. The wall was painted drywall. The rod was installed according to instructions. So, if the "wet laundry" in total does not weigh more than 30# and it can be space evenly it should hold up without any problem.John R.

I haven't hung up 2 pairs of wet jeans, but I have hung 5 shirts/tops with multiple empty hangers on the arms at the same time, and a bag of wet clothes thrown on top. Also hung a pair of my husband's wet sweatpants (XXL-tall), heavy as jeans. No problems. Just ensure device mounted in studs or with heavy duty dry-wall hangers. I love this device because it's in my laundry room, doesn't take up much space when closed, and I don't have to go outside to hang the few items I need line dried. Planning on installing one at my mom's and probably at my grown child's house too.

You cannot hang long items on the rack. Shirt size is what it handles. It's very heavy and not easy to dissemble.

This supports full size shower towels that are wet, so it would easily support large shirts. If you put it in a corner, you'll cut the space you can open it in half. Otherwise you have 4 locations that can each support 1 large clothing item and 2 small ones.

Well lately I've been loading wet laundry in it and wheeling it out to dry and it's been holding up, so as long as your not throwing it around I think it should work.

The rack is about 67 inches tall. I don't know how much weight it can hold, but we have it full of clothes that are all on hangers and it shows no sign of failure. So far, this rack has served us very well. I hope that helps.

Shelves are sturdy enough to hold supplies for laundry. Towel bar is too close to the wall ( not deep enough) to hang a full size hanger as it would hang in a closet. I use a tension shower bar (white)in my laundry room to hang clothes on from the dryer.

can be filled with full sized towels or jeans with no problem. still put hangers on the end bars too. have been very satisfied with this - especially the shirt hanger on the top. also great for drying sweaters flat on the sides.

No, its not structurally strong enough or wide enough. Hanger rack is only about a foot in diameter.

My wife uses rather thick plastic hangers and is able to fit 10-15 shirts on the bar. If you use wire hangers, you could hang many more shirts on the device.

I use it as a drying rack so clothes are wet so they are heavier. I usually put between 8 to 10 garments on at one time. Its tall which is nice and collapsible

We've put four pairs if jeans on it as well as four of my blouses with no problem. We do hang them so the weight is evenly distributed though. We use the thin huggable hangers instead of wooden or plastic ones as they aren't as heavy and fit nicely in the slots. I also put my damp coat on there to dry and drape socks over the rails. No problems. Just remember to distribute the weight evenly! Hope this helps.

I've used this rack for coats at our clothing outreach and right now I have well over 25 heavy coats on it and it's has held up very well. Hope this helps.
