How much weight will these steps support?

These steps are rock solid. My son loves them and they have given him great confidence when at countertops around the house. As to weight they will support - I've used them as a step stool occasionally and I weigh 225#. I know that isn't recommended by the manufacturer, but they didn't give an inch and I never felt unsteady on them.

It's super sturdy. I have stood on it without a problem and weigh 190lbs. Of course, it's for kids ;)

This step is not flimsy. I guess it would hold someone weighing 200 or more - especially if they were just climbing into bed as they stepped on it. It is sturdy like a step stool.

I would estimate 250 easily, maybe 300 lbs. My husband weighs 235 and there is no question about them supporting him. These are sturdy chairs. I'm going to buy two more.

I don't have the box because I sent mine back so I don't know if they can support the weight. They are some kind of sturdy plastic so they would hold up to any dampness well. Keep in mind that the units would be heavier when full and the washer can vibrate occasionally. If the feet of the lower unit fit in the recessed portion of these they should not skoot off but if they don't drop into the recessed area the skooting is something to think about.

These steps are made of a rugged plastic compound, much like Rubbermaid. No, I do not believe an extra 5 lbs. would make a big difference.

Not very much. Maybe about 15 at most. But the shelves tend to wobble a tiny bit, so you can't have too much on each. The bigger shelves at the bottom can hold heavier weight than the top ones.

150 is a bit much. My niece, about 95 lb sat on it and the step bowed inward a little. Would recommend stairs made of something other than plastic for big dogs.

They're really pretty sturdy, I don't think the weight would be an issue. You can check the dimensions of the shelves under product details to see if those will fit.

I agree with Bruce. They are fairly sturdy, if you lay them flat they are more rigid...I would say if the weight is distributed evenly and no sharp indentations are made, they could probably support 20-30 lbs each without being damaged.

I weigh about 170 lbs and have stood on mine a few times climbing up to the drop down bed in my toy hauler. I have them mounted on a table that I made that's attached to the wall with a removable hinge and the table is supported with 4 of these. SO... I'd feel good about saying that they will support at a minimum of 50 lbs each. Just MY opinion and NOT an official recommendation by any means.

Not sure how much weight they can withstand but they are pretty sturdy. They are all metal.

Don't know the exact weight but you should be alright in my opinion. They are very small shelfs so you biggest problem will be fitting them on there. Again I do NOT know the exact weight limit.

Hi, I weigh about 120 and I can walk up and down them, so it holds my weight. I also want to add and I left this out of my previous post, that the steps are not very wide and although I got them for my cat, neither my cat or dog want to go down them. You are probably better off with a heavy board and use it as a ramp. Much cheaper too. Mary C

My dogs are Chihuahuas...so I cannot guess the weight limit on these steps...best to contact the manufacturer!

I have built 2 8' drop leaf tables with these, using 4 per leaf. I don't know a weight rating, but I would be very worried about these to support the weight of a person. They just aren't that heavy. They also frequently need a little push on the middle of the diagonal; support to collapse them, so they might not be suitable for something as low as a step.

While I am not able to verify exact tolerance weights as to the specifications you query, I am currently using the shelves upstairs to support big pots full of rocks and dirt and plants. I figure each pot weighs close to 30-35 pounds, and there are four on each shelf, plus littler plants in smaller pots, also filled with rocks and dirt. Heavy! Yet to date the entire shelf structure is still holding steady. In fact it seems like it would exceed expectations if put to the test. I can't imagine any of the components collapsing under even 350 pounds, it is a genius design. Highly recommend.

Yes they will support the heavy stuff. I use one in the base of a shower and it is perfect in that application. It is a little rough on the bare feet but it works.
