How many loads is the 5lb box good for?
289434
I have been using this for about 5months. I use this just for my cloth diapers which I was 2-3 times per week and so far I have only used 1/4 of the box, if that. I only use about 1 teaspoon or so per load.

80 loads for a front loader, 40 loads for a top loader. (5 lbs = 80 oz. You use 1 oz. for a front loader and 2 oz. for a top loader.)

I use mine specifically for washing cloth diapers. I use pocket diapers and prefolds. I usually use about half a scoop or a little over half a scoop. I have a he front loader. I still would say probably so far I have gotten 50 loads and still have about one third of the box left. I hope that helps.

I don't think it was more than five pounds. It was very light, made the world of difference in my TXMSN temp when I installed it.

I agree. 6 boxes each carton plus freight. Since we use it regularly. I would buy two cartonsand it would qualify for free freight. Quite a savings.

The 5 pound container will carry you for quite a while if you use a blasting cabinet, or make a blasting cabinet out of rubber maid tubs you can reuse the compound. You'll want to filter it first of course

Unless you have a lot of veggies to pack into it I'd start off with the 5L size. The bigger the crock the heavier it is empty and when loaded its really, really a back breaker! So don't try to heft it from the floor without help (unless you lift weights). If you want to produce more you can always get a second 5L, that way you can have several different recipes going at the same time. Hope this helps a bit...

I pull a double axle pleasure boat that weights about 6,000 pounds boat and trailer. I purchased the tenkonsha primus IQ box and have nothing bad to say about it. It gets the job done great for me

I have owned this model several times and currently have one. I use it to carry catch all finishing items for my general contracting business. The lower bins are used for fastener storage (mostly screws). That said I am using it as a tool box not a tackle box. It weighs over 30 pounds. The result is that with usage it starts to break. First the upper black front handle (that secures the tan upper bin to the lower chassis) pops off/breaks and eventually the bins start to crack. If you baby it by lifting it with two hands instead of the main top handle it will last longer. I can't find a box other than this so I keep on buying them. They last about a year or two. For $30 bucks it is worth it. Buy it.

I am not sure that I ever saw an official weight capacity listed but I have 5 L-Boxes stacked on top of my dolly without a problem. I don't think that 200 pounds would be a problem at all.

6 boxes of 25 tablets, lasts us about 5 months doing about 1 load per day (150 loads)

I typically have 2 medium size loads with room to spare. I'd say it carries 3 medium loads or 2 large loads without over stuffing.

When I clicked on this item to get the description, I see the shipping weight listed at 1 pound. So I am not sure I understand your 5-8lb concern. I am not going to weigh the one I have, but heavy never entered my mind. In many cases, heavy adds stability. I have to say it does appear to be well made, but I suspect there are other that are lighter weight.

I use it daily and haul as many as 60 to 80 pounds per trip with no adverse wear to the basket , as I see it . But that is a heavy load for the bike rider . I have two bikes for this purpose with the same basket on each bike . No measurable wear that I know of .

I've used if for normal loads so far. It seems quite solid so I would expect a wheelbarrow load of dirt for example to be no problem.

i have about 2 lbs on it. max i'd do is 5 lbs. at 10 lbs, i'm confident it would fail.i installed mine through dry wall

I believe each hook is capable of holding 5 pounds. I would use two for stability to hold the box, even though it most likely does not weigh 10 pounds.

You get 5. Do yourself a favor, go down to Home Depot and buy them there instead. They sell X-large boxes for about 2 bucks a piece, plus those are stronger. They're about 8 bucks a piece on here. Obviously, I didn't figure this out myself till after I purchased mine and still needed more.
