I want to use this to display a 30 lb statue that's heavier toward the back, will it tip over?

hi restin. not knowing the statue you have, i can't guarantee it won't tip over! however, the kind of base/table that your statue and swivel are going to be on is important -- needs to be sturdy and level. i would place the object on the swivel with the front pulled a little forward and the heavy back being somewhat more to the center, if this is possible with your statue. the swivel base itself has been very sturdy for our use (60lb bonsai that i can now rotate easily and smoothly). play with it. also, "museum gel," bought at art stores, is very helpful for peace of mind. i hope this is helpful -- lise

It's pretty sturdy, it's low profile, so completely flat as it spins. If it needs to be able to rotate, this is an excellent option.

The turntable is low and sturdy and will easily handle the weight, but I don't know your statue. Is it already tippy? If the statue base is flat and smaller than the turntable, just move the center of gravity toward the center of the turntable.

Yes, it will tip if not mounted and not stand up with the lid open. Mine isn't mounted, but is stored leaning on a wall.

We are quite elderly, but we have used this item now for a couple of months and have not had a tip over problem. However, it is not anchored to the floor, so I suppose one might be able to tip it under unusual circumstances, such as falling and grasping a handle for a sidewise support. We also added a seat riser to the commode, which helps us rise to a standing position easily. Hope this helps.

It will hold it but it tips over all the time. The legs cant support the weight. I bought this then took awhile to put it together. I didnt come with any of the hardware to put it together so i had to but it. Spend more for the heavier ones

Its very very heavy. It would not tip over. I have kids who play with it at times. Its not a problem. You would be happy with it.

I have this outside and there is a heavy ceramit pot on it. As long as it is on a solid flat surface I have not had any problem with the stand tipping over.

That's a good question. I'd say I think it wouldn't have a problem up to two pounds or so. It's relatively well built for the money. Maybe more. What is it you're wanting to display?

No. It will fall over. It's super heavy and very tippy even when folded. The more gold the better but don't have it around kids or babies because they will very easily knock it over.

It's a pretty sturdy stand, so i think weight wise it could probably handle it. It'd be a bit awkward though because this is only about as wide as a monitor stand, i'd be more worried about it tipping over

I highly recommend you use the wall anchor provided. It is taller than most cabinets and narrow, so there is a risk of tipping over.

Sure. I'm sure that as you put heavier things on, the limit is not the strength of the stand but that eventually it will tip over (in which case you want a boom where you can put a counterweight on the other end).

Yes to both questions. The goose neck is very strong/sturdy and the base is weighted so there is no risk of it tipping over.

Assuming you're talking about the larger stand, I would say it shouldn't be a problem. I had a 10gal tank for the smaller stand. Since the stand is heavy wrought iron, I was never concerned about it tipping over. I put plexiglass in the shelves, but that was more for aesthetics. It is quite sturdy. I you match the tank with the appropriate stand, you should have no worries.

If the sword is handle heavy it might not look right since the handle will have to be closer to the base. Its sturdy! I can definitely hold weight thats not a problem. but how it would look on the display might be the issue I think you might want something with a wider base.

I actually use it on my kitchen counter and it stands very well on it's own.I haven't had a problem with it tipping over.

No, it shouldn't tip unless one side is ridiculously overloaded with heavy items hanging on one side and nothing on the other. It is solid and moves very well when heavily loaded. I've seen some useless garment racks and this one is not one of those. It's worth the price.

The tripod legs keep this stand very stable. I don't think it would tip over unless someone bumped into it.
