Does it stand up on its own? I ordered something similar, and without the hard bottom, it just fell over.

It balances pretty well, but you'll need to be careful not to load it top-heavy.

No, it doesn't stand up by itself really. The hard bottom does help and it depends on the balance of the items inside but it's not meant to stay upright.

Yes, it stands on it's own provided you've not overstuffed the bag. Whenever I pack the appropriate amount for the bag (which is a lot of clothes) the bag stands fine. Otherwise you have to balance it or it will tip forward on the soft side of the bag.

when you stand it up, the "bottom" is partly the hard plastic shell and partly a canvass, zippered small compartment. it really depends on the weight distribution, but having something in the small compartment seems to work... (a sweatshirt, pair of shoes, etc.). i don't use it often, but when i do, it's packed to the brim and stands up just fine.just read k. miller's reply and i think we agree it's all about weight distribution. but as i mention, put something in that small compartment and it props it up.

It does stand up when it's full but it may fall over if not full or filled unevenly.

No, this product will not stand on it's own. It is designed to hang. The balloon is the heavy portion with the basket being light and hanging from the balloon.

No. Mine is free standing and loaded pretty heavy. Haven't had any problem with leaning or tipping over.

It doesn't! Can't stand on it's own in the vertical position. Still worth the money!!

No....dont know why you're worried about the bottom - it doesn't show. It is very heavy though and not good for people with limited strength.

As long as you stand it as show in the photo (in a W shape, not straight) it stands fine on its own. I haven't had any issues with mine.

It would will stand on it's own, but it would not be very sturdy, I would suggest putting a base under it, like a piece of plywood to hold is apart and also more steady, you may still have some problems if someone bumps into it.

No the bag does not stand on its own; however it does support heavy items. I am very happy with the quality of the ones I purchased.

Mine doesn't go up all the way either but I think it's designed that way. It has not caused any problems for me as the bottom stays on without being hooked on at that point.

No, it stands on it's own!! It's quite heavy so we have it on a planter caddy, so we can move it. Had it a long time and only blown over once in a heavy storm! Love it, hope you do too!!

Absolutely! It was the last thing I put on when I put it together but it stands up fine without it. I have the wheels on but find I just remove the bags and do not roll it around. Hope this helps!

No. it does not stand this way. I will fall over because there is no way to secure it in that position.

Yes, mine stands alone. There are stakes to put in the ground, but we reinforced ours with wood blocks under the surface of the ground.

I bought mine in January 2014, so if you have an older or newer model this may not apply. The front surface of this is flat, but slightly angled, so setting mine on the front was not stable. It stands up, but the slightest bump would knock it over onto its top. The sides however are flat and at a 90 degree angle to the top/bottom. It can stand that way and is more stable than standing on its front, but I still wouldn't leave it that way unless there were some support to keep it from falling over if I accidentally bumped it.

Hi. No it will not stand alone. Mine wouldn't even stay put in any sink using the suction cups.

It's very unstable. It certainly will stand upright and stay that way if you don't do anything to it, but compared to a standard upright with a wider base it falls over very easily.

I have to use 2 hands to fold it, but it folds up very easily. Yes, it stands up on its own. I think the basket is very sturdy.
