Can you put this in a room and not anchor it - will it be stable.

We have ours outside on the patio and, after we arranged the legs so that they worked with our legs, it has been no problem at all. After my cousin saw mine she purchased one for her classroom and the kids haven't had any troubles with it tipping over.

Our "C" Stand is currently un-anchored on a tiled surface and we've not had any problems; we also have the stand turned sideways so that human feet are between the front and back stand-legs. Our hammock chair sits rather low and that adds to having a lower center-of-gravity as well.AND... we don't let kids get crazy as though it were a playground jungle-gym.So far, so good.

Yes it seems very stable to me even swinging back and forth will not tip at all

No while sitting in the chair on a winding day I was blown over and hurt. After anchoring it down it was fine. Before that it would blow over on a windy day. Better safe than sorry anchor it.

Yes it can. That is what I bought it for. I would still anchor it just in case.

The shelf in our garage sits flat on the concrete floor and is not anchored to anything. I wouldn't think you could anchor it to the wall above the floor and from what you describe only partly supported by a hard surface and expect it to hold anything of consequence without pulling out from the wall. The unit needs to sit on a surface with all four legs level with each other to perform as it should.

There is no need to attach to a wall. It stands very stable by itself. Goodluck!

Yes, so far ours is very stable, but it is in a low traffic area. But if it were in an area that it was easily bumped or you still have kids I would definitely anchor it to the wall.

I wouldn't plan on hanging a headboard off of this. If the headboard was mostly self supported, you could tie into it for basic stability. We hung out headboard on the wall which is an alternate option.

NO! It is not secure enough for that at all.....on a table or desk it will work but if wanting it good and stable I would not recommend this one....

I think it depends on your intentions. If you have any moving around to do after you assemble it, especially with any weight on it, I think the stability would be significantly altered. I have mine tucked in a closet and loaded down, so I can't really examine it. It is very stable and useful in its fully designed form.

yes. thats how i did mine. I have 2 as of now and its pretty stable. flimsy but i can work around it. follow the instructions and you'll be fine.

There are grooves that the shelf sit in so it cannot be moved. I am not sure if it would diminish the stability if you left the shelf out.

yes. But i would be careful when placing things on the hutch if it's not secure. I could move and potentially fall of the desk.

Probably if you want it to be stable. We didn't attach ours because it is in a very tight space and not going anywhere, but it is extremely wobbly!

Not at all. If it is going in a tight spot you can always build it in an open area and the move it then anchor it.

It is designed to be attached to a wall. I would not put any significant weight on it if it were unattached.

Yes, you can do that. You will need to brace it in any case so it doesn't collapse.

I wouldn't recommend it. This unit is top heavy & needs an anchor support in a wall. I was so disappointed after I had assembled it that I disassembled it & sent it back.

Bolting it to the wall would make it more secure but I do not believe secure enough to do what you want. Mine in a place where I do not bump into it and thus far it has been fine.
