How much weight will each shelf hold?

I can't give you an exact weight, but my shelves are loaded with some pretty hefty books. The old Sauder shelves would definitely sag under a load like this. The new shelves, thanks to the front brace, don't sag at all. Take a good look at the picture I posted.

Yes they will. Once each shelf is assembled there is quite a bit of weight to it, though it doesn't seem that bulky. It is very sturdy.

I have three of these shelves -- two I have had for several years and one is new. I agree with that Rich and Andrea that 30 pounds or so would be a safe limit. I know they may not look it or sound it when you read about what they are made of and such, but I have found them to be very sturdy shelves that really can hold a lot and which I think look quite nice, especially when you consider the low price. I use them in my home office and at times have really loaded the some of the shelves down with books, papers and such, and mine have stayed strong and continue to look just as good as the day I bought them. Hope this helps Itzell...

They're really pretty sturdy, I don't think the weight would be an issue. You can check the dimensions of the shelves under product details to see if those will fit.

I'm not sure. An entire unit definitely holds 200 lbs. I'm not sure about individual shelves.

The shelves are supposed to support 350 lbs. of weight. The rack itself should support approx. 40 garments easily assuming they're not all winter coats. I hope this helps.

I used 2 of these brackets, screwed into studs, with a 36 inch long 1x8 for the shelf. As configured, the shelf supports a variety of laundry detergents and supplies which weigh, in all, about 10 pounds. I would not use it to support anything that weighed more than 20 pounds. The brackets are well worth the money I paid for them. I wish I could send you a photo, but I don't know how.

The specs say each shelf can hold up to 75 lbs. I have had canned goods on them...the shelves held, but they sagged a little in the middle under the weight of all those cans. For the shelves where the weight was far less than 50+ pounds, there was no sag at all. I use them in the pantry and for utility shelves, and I love them.

I would not suggest heavy items. Shelves are only anchored into one side plus they are not solid wood..they are hollow and light weighr

I don't think there's a single answer to this. It depends on how much wider the shelf is than the bracket. The brackets are quite strong. For an 8 - 10 inch wide shelf, I would guess that each bracket can support 50 pounds or possibly more.

I figure it was about 35-45 lbs. Remember it can hold up to 350lbs per shelf!! Its worth the effort.

I don't know, I use them for my son video game system and controllers. The shelves are metal and seems to be very strong and I feel the could hold at least 30 or more pounds easily

Don't know the exact weight but you should be alright in my opinion. They are very small shelfs so you biggest problem will be fitting them on there. Again I do NOT know the exact weight limit.

All the lower (very bottom) shelves can hold about 50 pounds. the very top shelves can hold about 25 pounds and the middle shelves (the more sturdier part of the shelves) can hold about 40 pounds..hope this helps!

Not sure of exact weight it can hold but these shelves are very sturdy & made of heavy wood so im sure it can hold quite a bit.

They are sturdy but I don't know how much weight you could put on them. I have pictures and knickknacks which aren't that heavy. It is a nice shelf. I like it a lot.

Will hold them fine. Shelf has spaces about 1.5 inches apart from one another. Will still hold at least 3 per shelf.
