how durable are they? Can you put the weight of ladders on them or they just for show?

My 22' ladder has had no problem riding on them and I have a cargo basket with extender installed on mine that weigh 60 lbs. that is on there daily and cross bars show no sign of giving in after 7 months. Hope this helps you.

They are very sturdy. Just don't tighten the screw too tight as the plastic ends will crack. That is only for cosmetics, but it's still cracked. It doesn't affect the sturdiness. I would recommend them.

Hi Dave.They are very durable. I use them for hauling two full size touring kayaks to the lake. Each kayak is @ 70 lbs plus the rack alone is another 20lbs -no flexing at all. good product.

They work very well. We bought them for my boyfriends son for Christmas last year. He has had no complaints about them and travels up and down the east coast. He absolutely loves them, and he also said that they were extremely easy to put on as well.

I don't believe I would recommend that. It is more for situations when there is something supporting the ladder from behind, such as a house elevation, etc. I probably would not do well with nothing supporting it from behind.

I don't climb. But I doubt it. Consider them decorative. I'm happy with them for the purpose I and price I bought them for.

They are really sturdy and can stand up to a lot of weight. My only advice would be that they are really hard to decorate on. I was super excited to get them and then gave them away because they stood empty the whole time I had them. I couldn't send them back because it says once u open box u can not return them. Hope this helps!

They seem sturdy from what I can tell. I'd still recommend not stepping on them or putting pressure on them, as it is somewhat flat and "disc" shaped, so it could potentially break pretty easy in that regard.

They have been fine at my house. We put them up Sept 2014 and they still look great and light is the same. They are pretty heavy duty.

Yes! I and my husband (who weighs over 200 lbs) use these in obstacle courses with our son and his friends. We've stood, jumped, and leaped on them with no damage whatsoever. They're virtually indestructible, from what I've seen of them. Very well engineered, with gripper rubber edges around the bottom, and textured surface (to minimize slippage) on the tops.

I use the ladder on a deck boat, I just hang th ladder over the edge and have not installed the mounting cups, I am 200 pounds and the ladder is very sturdy even for me.

I have had mine (4 of them) around our fire pit for more than a year now. They are out all year long, and get lots of use. They are very heavy so I think even wigggly children would not be able to knock them over.

They should hold okay provided they will line up mechanically. I would suggest a then piece of rubber between the truck bed and the ladder rack. If this is going on the bed of the truck it would make it very easy for someone to steal it and if you go this route good luck

I'm only using it for display, lined up on a high shelf in my bookcase. So, durability hasn't been an issue. However, the pots are clay, so I wouldn't expect them to hold up outside in a breeze, if they were to hit something.

They are extremely drop durable I have dropped mine at least 4 times off of the roof of a cabin.

Sorry I was on vacation. I wouldn't trust these to something that heavy. They seem to be made well enough but not as heavy as I would want to deal with a golf cart. We used them for ladders for our dogs to get out of the water and onto our boat. Not a lot of demand for strength there! Hope this helps.

Not sure how the would hold up in the long run. They seem to be more for indoor use, but they are not super expensive, so you could try. They do look great and are super easy to put up.

Absolutely. I put them up when I bought them and they have not moved since . :)

They hold up pretty good I have had no problem with these dumbbells when dropping them on the rubber flooring but I wouldn't make it a habit of dropping them because I'm sure if dropped at a wrong angle you might bend it.but the dumbbells in my opinion are good dumbbells.

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.
