I need a crate to hold 5lb dumbells (10 sets)- 50 lbs- is it sturdy enough?

Fifty pounds would be no problem. A load of four gallons of milk weighs about 32 pounds.Myself, I found over two dozen of these 4-gallon size milk crates on the streets over the years.The crates can carry lots of heavy objects. About six crates are used to store some thin bricks that I will keep adding to the outer wall of my house--after they are cemented onto two inches of polystyrene insulation. I saw regular bricks into six or seven thin-brick slices, BTW.

I think so. I put 30 lb. propane bottles in mine and the crates hold them fine.

Yes, sturdy enough for sure. Check other Q&As for measurements to be sure you can at least slide your items in from the side to fit.

I think that if you use the side pieces along with the racks it should be sturdy enough. The side pieces help to keep it steady. I only had room for two without the side parts, where I was putting it, but I did see this with multiple sets before I bought mine.

I wouldn't call it flimsy. Adequate, not industrial strength like you might see for cages in an animal shelter. This is a lighter weight cage built for transporting, so it's not heavy gauge steel. If the dog in the cage isn't actively, desperately seeking escape, I'd think this would be fine. My shelter rescue basset reacted so much when I pulled this out of the box that I have never actually closed the cage door. Subsequent visit to the vet revealed bad teeth suspected to have been the result of chewing on the crate she was kept in while being used as a puppy mill. While my Basset was happy to have her own den, then my predatory pussy cat decided to take it over as her den! Makes a great cat crate - as long as I don't shut the door. Makes a wonderful dog crate, as long as the door is open, the Pupperonis are inside, and the cat is up on her cat-tree!

I think it's pretty sturdy. My 50 lb dog sat in one for like it was her bed.. .but I wouldn't stand on it or anything. I just have sheets in mine right now.

No. For $4 each you should get a better product (sturdier). These crates are "flimsy", barely strong enough to hold papers or lightweight objects.

very sturdy, heavy plastic like milk crate. I don't have space to stack, but would do so if I could - at least two, maybe three high.

Yes, the dumbbell bar would hold. It would probably consist of 4 ten pound plates on each side with the remaining plates and bar and collars adding up to 100 pounds.

I purchased the Precision Pet Snoozzy crate @ Petco Hawaii and paid $100, I returned it and purchased the exact same and saved $$$. I use this for my malti-poo she is 5 1/2 lbs, 4mos, the heaviest she will be is 10lbs and this crate will be able to handle this weight. This crate is built sturdy, it can probably hold a small dog up to 15lbs, worth the price/purchase. I am not familiar with a provalue crate.

It is pretty sturdy. We use it for our microwave, but it would hold considerably more than that. I would guess that you should be ok with about 50 pounds or so on it.

This is mostly a containment type crate. There is a handle across the top that will carry the crate but it seems that it would not be as steady as say the hard shell crates.

If you can lift and handle a large object weighing approximately 50 lbs with confidence, yes. I set it up myself in maybe 10 minutes.

No, it's not big or sturdy enough for that. Possibly it would hold one 50lbs bag of salt.

It's fairly sturdy, I think 40lbs will be fine. 40lbs isn't very much weight.

I wouldn't stand on them but I would say it could support 50lbs without a problem. This is a guess since I would never sit on or stand on these. I have it filled (top) and all bins full as well and it holds up good.

it would fit and probably be fine for weight, but have you thought about a wooden crate?

It seems very stable and will depend on how much weight you put on each shelf....each one hold 50 lbs. I dont yhink it would be eady to topple. But t hen of course how old and how wild are your kids?
