I'm wondering how rigid the sides are. Is the metal easily bent?

It's very sturdy. I use mine for silverware. It doesnt collapse at all. Well built.

I use it as a hair dryer and brush holder in my bathroom. So it goes through a beating on a daily basis. I have had this for quite a while and it as not bent and the paint has not chipped.

It is rigid enough for durability. I've not been gentle with them, and I have no dents or deformations.

It's sturdy but pliable. It bends a bit but doesn't feel like the plastic would break.

I've had one for about 8months now and the sides have never caved it. It is very sturdy and I love it!!!

They're very sturdy. Not easily bent at all, but I'm sure with enough force, could be.

they are solid but they are easily bendable to conform to the door area of installation. very easy to install!

Hi, I bought this couple of months ago and I liked it... coming to the question of metal, it is not solid. it is hallow but good enough to hold the weight. Not like that would bend or get dented... hope this clarifies

The bottom is pure metal while the sides, back and facing are of a hard durable plastic. Unless you plan on dropping it or throwing it around alot you then should have nothing to worry about. It's very durable.

The metal holding it on is easily bendable! Mine actually bent off and I forced it back on!! So yes!!

It does bend. Not sure it would work for you but it might. Sorry, I can't be more help.

I ensure you it is not. I could bend it easily with my hands. Had been carbon steel it would never have moved. It could be a composite, but more than likely it's a medium gauge steel/aluminum or some mixture of aluminum. It'll with stand air soft shots, but that's about it.

The back is a hard plastic but the sides are a softer plastic that is pretty bendable

It does bend in the middle a little bit, though it would take a lot to break it I don't really recommend this product. When j imagine titanium I imagine something sturdy, which this is not. It's not excessively flimsy but it isn't what I expected.

If you have a good bender it should do just fine I've had no problem with bending it and keep it bent. Added a bit of heat to the bend to keep it bent.

It's not really rigid on the sides, but there is a hard insert on the bottom. If it was completely full it would stand up like the picture, but the sides have no hard support.

No bending as the metal is pretty thick. I wouldn't consider the forks sharp, but they do everything they need to do. Have been using this set for a year now and it's very durable and well made. Best set I have ever owned.

It's hard plastic than doesn't bend. We're very happy with this -- no problems at all.
