How much weight will this thing hold??? I have a 20 gallon cast iron stew pot.

We cooked a full clambake for 25 people-clams, potatoes, corn, chicken,and broth in a 4 tier steamer. It held up well.

This is a very sturdy well built table, I think it will hold just about anything that would fit on the shelf. I have my cast iron cookware on it. Not sure there is any way to determine the exact weight capacity tho.

The short answer is, yes, the stand would hold another pot or pan, and probably reasonably well. The pots (pot and lid) that come with the stove are grooved on the bottom to fit the base (the fire-producing portion) so that they're extra steady. But ... as long as the stove was set on a flat, stable platform (even ground, table, flat rock, etc.) you should be okay. I wouldn't use anything much larger than about a one quart pot, though. The stove is pretty solidly built, but it is only sheet aluminum.

It's best for 'lighter' items like cups and plates. I wouldn't recommend it for heavier pots and pans. It's looks smaller in person than in the pictures. If you have a lighter set of pots/pans it may work...but nothing like stew pots or cast iron. Other than that it's a nice little rack. We use it mostly for cups and plastics/Rubbermaid.

Not sure how much weight, but I have a crock pot and a frying pan sitting on it right now and it seems to be holding just fine. It could probably hold more, but I wouldn't use it as a book shelf.

I haven't actually put a 15 gallon pot on the unit. But assuming a diameter of approximately 15 inches, yes it should take the weight just fine. If the bottom is the thin gauge them at high setting it should be used only for boiling water because it will scorch anything else it's on the bottom. It's that powerful.

My 10Lb cast iron pot will hold 8 Fl. Oz. safely, Absolutely No More than 9 Fl. Oz.

Not sure of the weight it can hold. Used it 2 weeks ago for a festival. It is very sturdy and did everything we needed it to do including holding all the dirty pots and dishes including a large pot filled with water. We used it for cooking on and some other odds and ends.

It holds a 23 qt pot full of water for me.. No problems.. It just takes a long time for it to boil if it is loaded up that much..

For what it's worth, I homebrew with a bayou classic 1046 142 quart pot as a brew kettle (it's significantly heavy when empty). Although I had bricks in place, apparently much of my weight was on the burner. It flexed on me after running high heat for quite some time and roughly 25 gallons of wort in it. The bricks picked up and supported the weight. I now use cinder blocks positioned around it to support the pot and make sure it is up off the burner. Just be careful. If you're worried, get some extra support and set your mind at ease.

The dolly will hold pots up to 12" in diameter so size would not be a problem. According to the description, it wil hold up to 200 lbs, so you are at or near the limit of what the dolly can carry.

I think a 10lb pot should be fine. I use this rack on my terrace, it looks pretty and is very functional. I store many garden supplies, including pots, there.

We built four of them into our island and use them to hold appliances that we only occasionally use, like the mixer, the crock pot, the juicer, etc. so it holds quite a bit of weight. It would definitely hold a set of pots and pans or ceramic mixing bowls or serve as a shelf in a pantry. It's pretty sturdy.

The only restriction in the manual is that the unit uses a 14" 10 1/2 Qt pot. I would say from what I use it for to melt lead it can hold quite a load, But 10 1/2 qts is about 20 3/4 lbs. So its up to you. I try not to add too much material and limit it to about 25 to 30 lbs. Remember that a gallon of water weighs 8.3 lbs. You go from there. Remember also its a cooker not a fryer and if you deep fry anthing you will need a thermometer to regulate the temp. Have fun.

No problem with weight, had two cast iron skillets, but could easily handle much more. Estimate 20lbs plus.

The stand is very attractive in the corner of my kitchen. I have very heavy pots displayed on the shelves for easy access to them. I have the heavier pots on the bottom with the ligher pots on top. The weight distribution helps the unit to stay stable. All my pots are Staubs and LeCreuset which are made of cast iron. therefore, I would answer YES to your question. I hope this information helps you.

The rack that came with mine is black, 15 7/8" x 10". Yes, it is large enough to hold a pot of stew.
