I have one piece of equipment that is 38 lbs that I plan to hang in the center. Will this hold the one piece in the center without tipping forward?

38lbs is pretty heavy. I think for that kind of weight you may want to have a weight attached to the bottom to help stabalize. A sand bag would be good. I have hung about 25lbs with no stability issues, though I adjusted the base to be very wide.

It will hold if the weight center is projecting inside of the tripod area, however sand bags should be used to stabilize.

My center is 30lbs and it holds pretty well with rubber tacks underneath it. I don't know the specific weight load but the stand is very sturdy.

Yes, but it will be loose. Not designed very well for folks who are lean. I leave it unsnapped with my leaner clients.

Kristen- I keep two large dance lights, two large strobe lights and two decent size lasers mounted on mine. Since I have two of everything it makes it easy for me to balance everything easily. If you are only putting one 38lb piece of equipment up there I am certain that as long as you keep it mounted near the center you will be just fine. The tripod legs are adjustable and allow you to get a good size separation of all three feet so your stability should remain fine.

I use an Olympic set. It is a bit shaky but I've never been worried that it would tip over or anything.

Yes it will work. It is not as strong as I had hoped but I did brace it to help. Will sway from side to said a little.

In my opinion it is quite stable. If you hang a several heavy jackets on one side and not the other it will tip, but otherwise it does not.

It is a very stable product! Lots of heavy jackets and such have been hung in the one I've purchased. With anything I wouldn't suggest hanging everything to one side, but it does well with uneven weights.

If you sit it balanced between each pair of supports, you should be fine. My machine has never moved; but I take time to center it.

It can, however you need to hang it between 2 bars instead of one. (Hard to describe, but easy to do) Therefor you have less bars available for hanging stuff. You also will need to put some clothes on the other side wing to balance it out. It works best if you hang the heavy stuff close to the center of the rack. I am a bit disappointed because some of my lower bars have started to break. The only thing I hang on the lower bars are socks and bras and they are not heavy so I don't know why they are breaking. I would like to get a better quality product, but they don't sell better quality racks in the US. Next time I go to Europe, I'm bringing a good quality one home with me.

We use it more for decorative purposes rather than functional. We hang a couple of cowboy hats and a holster on it. But moving the hats and holster around, it's never come close to tipping over.

I hang jeans, sweatpants, shirts...everything right out of the washer. I have never had a problem with it tipping when I hang jeans on one bar.

No. The rod just rests in the holder. It depends on gravity to hold it in place.

If you have one side "wall" and one side railing the tension should keep it from tipping over. We have two railings and it is very tight and stable.

Yes. Bulky items may tip it since sides are not high... but I love it. Has held up well, doesn't "bend".

If you have enough weight on the bottom shelves it might hold it without tipping backwards. It is a sturdy stand, the top shelf isn't going to break, I would want to make sure it doesn't fall. The wheels will lock so if you put it against a wall it wouldn't flip.

I'm sure it would hold the weight, might not look good because of the difference in height of the two side units compared to the center unit. Your base has to fit on the center unit which is 36.5 inches.
