Standers BedCane: Can the screws joining plate and base resist the torque from a 300-lb person pushing on them?

They are sturdy and well built, but have not tested them. I suspect that with enough force they could be bent or broken, but I cannot seen how someone asleep could exert 300 lbs pressure on them.

It would probably keep someone from rolling out of bed when sleeping. But when my 120-pound father used them to help him get up, he said they were too wobbly. He went back to the shorter, more sturdy rail even though it didn't extend. I don't know whether a heavier person would actually bend the rails, but I think it wouldn't provide the best support for standing if that's your question.

The Stander BedCane is designed to withstand up to 350 LBS. Given that the BedCane has been installed properly it can withstand that amount of pressure.

I have those and they look ok strong. But I did not put close to 300 lbs on it... maybe 100-150 max so far, and it handled ok. So, good luck.

I just tried to use a power screwdriver to put the legs on my sectional as per the type of screws that came with the set. Impossible! I just left them off. Not much difference.

There are some bolts near the surface at the back of the head and spine so they tell you not to strike the back. It won't break it, it is a safety issue

I'm 150 lbs. and I have stood on it without a problem. It seems to be pretty well built...just not sure if it could stand continuous 'stepage'. I think the side walls might have an issue...you could certainly do a little internal bracing and it would work fine, so long as it is not being pounced on. Good luck!

I would not feel comfortable with putting 300 lbs on it. I am using it as a kitchen prep table, with the bottom shelf for light items such as a crock pot, stainless bowls, and frying pans. The table is quite solid and does not wobble, however, in my opinion it is a great work surface rather than a storage table.

Hi: I'm not a contractor. However, it would appear to me that if there was a way to separate the round platform from the rotating rectangular surface, then maybe. Otherwise, I don't see any way to bolt it down without interfering with its' rotation.

The screw is tightened very firmly. I am produced from the top not to break a ditch of + if I am used to control it and turn it.

Personally I would correct the installation. It may not move and appear solid but do you want to risk it with 300lbs on your back? I wouldn't. This is a safety issue and should definitely be corrected.

Absolutely. It is not difficult. Concur with other answers re weight. My recollection is that it did not include all necessary hardware to fasten TV to the stand. I think I had to purchase some additional nuts and bolts.

Same problem here. I just connected the TV to the base without the screw and it seems pretty secure to me on the TV stand. Hopefully it not tumble over randomly one day while I am at work...

Nothing. I have the same condition, but about 15 deg. I think it has to do with the thickness of the screw heads and which predrilled holes are used to attach the brackets to the wall. Attachment points may be limited to the very top and bottom points, which causes concerns with holding capacity. Mine are into wood, and I have elected to live with it. Good Luck.

Just leaning on it (force straight down) would be almost unlimited, just as much as the tub side wall could with stand. Side to side force, in other words, trying to pull its mount off the tub wall is very high as well. I'm 250 and I feel like I could swing on this thing. Really a strong connection to the tub. You won't be dissapointed.

The rails are sturdy but they may not support a large person pulling herself up on them. They are not secured the bed frame.

I believe this stand is rated for 300 lbs. You should have no problem. I have a 150 lb. drill press on mine.

Not really, it works great as a drill. It doesn't have anything to limit Torque, so using it with screws is not ideal

The joints can be tightened with supplied hex wrench, but in an RV I would still probably attach a small cable from the TV mounting plate to the wall to limit its range of motion.
