How steady is this on low pile carpeting? I am renting and don't want to have to deal with attaching it to the wall.

If you plan to load it with books and other weighty things, you should not have a problem. I have mine on hardwood floors, but loaded with electronics and books and of course the decorative item or 2. Mine are stable. I do not have small children around climbing though.

I use this in my home with regular carpet and at trade shows with low pile carpet. I display ceramic warmers so it has to be sturdy. I've never had an issue at any location. Based on my experience, you should not have to attach it to the wall.

It would depend on the carpet I suppose. You could always secure it to the wall if you need to.

we have ours on carpet, no problem, we have it weighted down so it does not move easily.

I'm sure it's nailed before it's covered in the carpet. I haven't had a problem with it's stability at all, if that is your worry. I have 2 cats and they love it! I particularly loved that it came all in one piece - nothing to put together!! Yayyyy!

Moving the bed is not too easy on my carpet. Probably would depend on the surface.

It's great on carpet. My studio apt was carpeted throughout and I had absolutely no problems.

Mine is on tile floor. Depending on the thickness & pile of the rug, it may wobble somewhat.

Yes, it's very sturdy. It comes with special screws to attach to a wall to prevent it tipping over but I didn't need to use it - it stands up without any wavering. Please note, I have it on a floor not carpet but I don't suspect it will be a problem on carpet.

I use it on carpeted floors. It is heavy and not flimsy at all; has never fallen over. Because it is always in a "Z" shape it isn't wobbly or anything. That being said, the straighter you line up the 3 panels, the less stable it is.

So far i have found it to be extremely sturdy. I use it on carpet and still have not had a problem.

It's pretty solid. You'll need some more clamps. If you can pick the rug up won't much problem I'm sure it's ok. But if it's 100lbs it's prob a bit much.

As long as it isn't deep shag, it should be fine. I have one on standard medium pile wall to wall carpeting, and it rolls quite easily. It is a much steadier top than the ones with a single column support.

Pretty stable unless you have sculptured carpet. However, due to the height, it would be best to anchor to a wall, especially if you have children or pets around.

We have ours on a wooden floor and it holds great. Not sure about carpet though......

Yes, it doesn't take much strength at all to put this up and down. As far as the heavy rugs....haven't tried that yet, but, it does hold lots and lots of laundry with no problem whatsoever. I would contact the manufacturer regarding the rugs and the amount of weight.
