Will this stand support a glass 5 gallon water jug? or just plastic?

Hello, i either use a 3 gallon glas container or a 5 gallon plastic container. I think the stand will support the gallon glas container but I'm not sure. Lifting 5 gallon glas would be heavy for me.

5 gallon plastic jug works fine. I would keep it on the counter and throw the stand away if I had young children

Of course it will hold 5 gallons of water. It's wood and nicely crafted. Could probably hold 10 gallons.

We have been using ours for many months with 5 gallon plastic bottles. No problems whatever. It seems quite strong.

it feels pretty ok to me when it comes to strength of the arms / poles, yes it might crack if you are shakky and sloppy while putting it on top. Why it even shakes with plastic, nevermind glass :). but i think at this price its best we can get. i would have rather got wood from home depot and made one real stong for myself.anyways all said and done, it was ok for what its worth.

I actually don't use the stand. I put a plant on mine. I keep my dispenser on a microwave stand. I have a friend who uses her stand for 5 gallon plastic. My opinion is that glass would be pretty top heavy. The stand could probably hold it weight-wise but it would tip easier. I hope that helps.

We use plastic 5 gallon jugs ,so I really couldnt say.It seems sturdy enough.

I would say yes. Each 5 gallon water bottle weighs 40 pounds, so that's 160 pounds per tier. The glass couldn't add that much more weight!

You would have to measure the size of the water bottle...the shelf size is 22inches X 13 inches, and in the specs it says it is rated for 250 pounds. Five gallons of water weighs 30 pounds so that is ok. It looks sturdy enough but I have never tested it with heavy items.

yes it does hold 5 gallons bottle of water and so far has been a great stand for usno problems at all.

It will hold both 5 gal and 3.5 gal,which I prefer. It accommodates the new "plug" spill free bottles which is nice .Much better than the older bottle types. I'm very happy with this unit and this is the third different brand of water cooler that I have owned ,the cheapest and best!

I'm not sure. I use 5 gallon jugs. But I would think that 3 would work if it has same opening but just a smaller size.

It is a nice stand, but I do not believe it will hold a fish tank of that size. Although, it is sturdy, it is not very wide. Hope this helps.

Have not seen a terra cotta stand for the 65 gallon. There is a wooden model that looks very interesting. The front is not obstructed so you could easily put your watering can under the spigot. ?? Below is link Hamptons Rain Barrel Stand

It should, I have used it on a couple different brands of jugs. I would say no smaller than 5 gal though

I use it for 5 gallon...it's strong! The plastic dispensor is ok and does take a few ttys to get it seated right so it doesn't drip.

I have a 55 gallon tank also, this stand is amazingly strong, it's sturdy, you will be very pleased, I sure am. Hope this helps you.

Yes. I have a five gallon metal water container on it now. It does need to be a metal one.

I use 5 gallon jugs and that works fine....probably it would work for 10 too...

Yes, it would fit at least two gallon jugs. I use it for office paper recycling but it would be a decent size for a kitchen recycle bin.

It will only use the plastic 3 gallon and 5 gallon water containers. As far as i know the glass water bottles have a diffrent opening.

I use a regular "Culligan" jug. I think it's a 5 gallon. I love my machine.

This item is well made but did not meet my expectations and therefore has been returned. As it is no longer in my possession I cannot be certain in my reply to your question. Previous customers mention this jar "snaps into the base". I do not recall this at all? It is possible a larger jug may fit in this base but I don't recommend this. The waterer would be out of proportion and may tip over. I, therefore, agree it is not possible to use a larger jug in this base! BTW, the jug it comes with is a generous, practical and sufficient size.
