how much weight can these hold? looking for something to hold my school bag (books, laptop, water bottle)

Probably an adequate amount of weight; however, they are too long to hold some bags in some cars!

The larger hooks can hold all of the above. My concern would how much strain can the headrest pole handle.

I do not know the weight limit on the hooks themselves. In our car(s) they have held backpacks full of books and school stuff, as well as my computer bag. I'm guessing easily can hold 20lbs. if using both "appendages" of the one hook. I can not imagine what one would hang from these hooks that would be too heavy.

I see no problem with that. I have two behind the driver's side. One holds all of my recyclable bags (not very heavy) and on the other I put a very heavy purse and lunch bag. They are very sturdy and strong. It would take more than I would care to suspend from my car's headrest to bend them.

It is made of a wire approx double the width of a coat hanger (like the ones from the cleaner). So it is not all that thick but I have not had a problem with it.

My laptop bag is the heaviest thing I've put on the hook, but it easily holds that and my purse.

Thanks for the inquiry. Yes, this will hold laptop as well as other devices. Best regards Richard

This is a computer backpack. It's sturdy although I had to repair one of the should straps in less than one year. I carry a laptop , and other electronics along with a lot of paperwork. If you put just books in it maybe four to five big books would fit. I have had about 35 pounds in it.

For rectangular things think of this as think of this as 10.5in wide x 13in tall x 5in deep. For kids carrying two tons of textbooks (like I did) this wouldn't be anywhere near big enough. If you need to carry some folders, a book, a one-inch binder, and a laptop in a padded sleeve, this will be fine.

I am not sure if they would hold books. I have one that is very snug on the shelf and the other isn't as snug and tends to wiggle too much. They are on the exact same shelf. I think the thickness is roughly 2". If you got 2 that fit a shelf snug, holding up books might be okay.

I was not pleased with them at all, yes it could hold your laptop, but they are very flimsy.

Hi,Actually, I bought the targus backack 17" and it holds all his high school books, 2 binders and supplies. It is big, sturdy and holds a lot. I am not sure about the weight but it seems to held very heavy stuff. We tries multiple bags and they would tear easily but targus has been the best one so far, it still looks and holds like we just got it.

Probably not, unless they are very thin books. There isn't much room (2-3 inches??) between the laptop portion and the front half of the backpack.

I have 17inch plus, Dell Laptop Computer loaded, not real heavy but I'd say heaver then a lot of laptops. It holds it great, but I wish it was 2 -3 inches wider.. They say 50 pounds, but if my computer weighed 30-40 pounds I don't think I would put it on it. We travel a LOT... 6 - 7 months out of the year and it is used everyday. It is a little shakey but acceptable. It stores ok..

It would hold a desk top computer if you could carry it. It is really large. I sent mine back as it was not what I was looking for. It was a very nice bag but not for carrying a laptop.

I've never wanted to find out how much exactly, cause I don't want it to break. But I've been able to put all of my college books on it along with my laptop and some food. I really don't think it would break unless you say on it or put something that would obviously be too much weight on it. It's also wide enough for me to do my work on.

Yes, they should be able to hold that easily. My students used them as pencil pouches this year and kept 8 pencils (along with other little treasures that were NOT supposed to be in there, ha!) Many did break (zippers, pencils punctured holes through plastic) at some point during the year, but many also lasted all year long. I will be ordering them for my class again next year!

I use mine for books. They are quite sturdy. Youwould be aable to put hundreds of DVD on them I would think

It can hold most textbooks and binders that I've used it with. In terms of how much, I never put too much but it can fit about 4 inches thick worth of books/binders/notepads. I don't advise doing so but that seems to be the spacial capacity. So while technically yes, very little. I advise using this bag for light loads, such as reading books + notebooks while avoiding binders and textbooks that are naturally just large/heavy.

This could function as a school backpack, but that depends on how much you intend to carry. A laptop will take up some space and the rest can be notebooks; that would work. But the books you intend to carry are pretty big, then this probably won't work. I carry my laptop, a binder, and two notepads and it's pretty full.

They are pretty sturdy, you can easily do 10-15 pounds per shelf. It is 3/4" composite board material so it's going to hold a full load of books if you needed.

I bought a Samsonite backpack. The laptop is heavier than most, so you'll need something sturdy.
