Would it be sturdy if I stacked all 4 cubes into a tall narrow tower, or would it topple over?

Honestly, it depends on what you're putting in it. Using my leftover pieces, (I bought 3 sets), I've constructed a narrow tower of 3 cubes, propped it against a wall, put it on carpet, and it hasn't budged since. I don't think 4 cubes would really be an issue.

It's not sturdy no matter how you stack the cubes. Mine was stacked 2x2 and it couldn't hold bath towels... I strongly recommend you buy something else.

Right now, I've got two sets connected, 3 x 3 cubes. I just tugged on it, and it is quite solid and sturdy.the circular connectors also serve as a stable base at the bottom of the cube. I think that, as long as youstore the heavier items in the bottom cubes, and work your way up, you will have no problem. Mine is notanchored to the wall -- just pushed against it. You could anchor it to the wall for added safety (especiallyfor a child's room). I love this item. Good luck.

It would probably be fine as long as you either put heavy items on the bottom shelf or two or anchor it to the wall somehow.

I purchased two of these and, although they are very sturdy, I would anchor them to a wall if you stacked two on top of one another as they may become too top heavy.

Well, you probably could stack them (if you don't put on the wheels), but they're narrow and if filled with a lot of stuff they might topple over.

I've got smaller ones and they're wobbly and stacking one on top of the other sucks and I'm not doing it - they'll just slowly collapse. What I've done that has taken care of the problem is just put a board on top of the two bottom containers and then stack another on top of the board - we have three total so that has worked for us. The second row weight distributes via that board across the entire bottom two storage units instead of just the four points that then get squished over time and begin to collapse. The board has prevented any collapse - no worriess. I put the heavier content ones on the bottom and the lighter on top but there isn't that much difference really. So a board works. I'd stick another container on top and be comfortable with that. Now I would never stack over two rows with my board solution though. What I would do is still purchase these containers because they are pretty cool for what we need them to do, and I would purchase some concrete building blocks (pretty cheap although somewhat heavy). Then I would put one concrete block on top of another and once I got above the height of the first row storage then place a board on the concrete blocks. Then do the same on top of that second row I just made to get to a third row. That way all weight from any of the two upper rows of storage boxes is transferred to the board and the concrete blocks and the first row is on the ground so no problems. Hope that helps. =P

We only have one and haven't tried stacking another on top, but I don't think there would be a problem. The flat top is big enough to support the feet of the upper one. They would not be interlocked, and the upper would just be sitting on the lower, but as long as the floor is level, shouldn't be a problem. But they are big and hold a lot of stuff and get HEAVY fast. I probably wouldn't want to them more than two or three high; and three-high would take two people to lift the upper one.

Definitely not. They will collapse. I'd say no more than 3 lbs max on top of them.

I think it could be sturdy enough if they are not more than about 8" tall. Otherwise, they'd probably tip over.

I would suggest you confirm it can handle the weight of your stack. If it can, the feet of the bottom unit should be able to be secured in the holes in the corner bracket. Keep in mind, however, that this only has two wheels that swivel so it is going to turn on a dime. It will need some maneuvering room. Otherwise, it should work just fine in my opinion.

Hi Yenni,You can stack Storage Cubes as much as you can. We recommend securing them together with double sided adhesive and also anchoring to the wall to prevent any accidental tipping.Jimmy ChiangWay Basics, Founderjimmy@waybasics.com

Hi Elaine,I like the unit, but I don't think they are sturdy enough to stack. Hope that helps.Anita

It would be sturdy enough, but I am not sure it would be big enough. I guess it depends on how you arrange things on it.

Yup! I own 4 and they stack nicely together. I do not think you could stack much higher than 4 though. Hope that helps

Probably they can be stacked 3 to 4 high, but I don't know how stable they'll be. I have them stacked 2 high to bring a table up to adequate level and they remain very sturdy. I say give it a try !

They stack very securely but I'm sure at some point it would be unstable. I have two stacked and they are very secure.

It's pretty sturdy so you might be able to stack it but I would defer to the manufacturer as to weight restrictions.

Although it is pretty sturdy it might get top heavy but as long as there is weight on the bottom you should be fine.

This tower folds in so that it will fit very skinny towers as well as wide ones. It should be perfect for you, as long as the length of your tower matches it. It is also sturdy.
