I need something like this that can handle a 20 lb weight at the front end of it - a bucket of dog food. Will this handle that much weight?

Not sure about the exact weight. Holds my big Kitchen Aid stand mixer no problem. Guessing that's close 20 lbs.

I don't know for sure but I would think it would. I have glass bowls in mine and it does find with the weight. Also the construction is first rate and heavy duty.

I seriously doubt that it will handle that much weight at the end of full extension. That would put a lot of stress on the rear bracket and possibly distort the frame.These are well made sliders but to push the envelope wouldn't benefit anyone.

I think it should be able to hold a 20 pound cat . It held my 11 pound Chihuahua and another dog that weighed about 12 pounds.

Yes it will handle that weight with no problem. I have a large bird feeder that holds 5 lbs of bird seed plus two seed balls hanging from it.

I wouldn't put more than 15 to 20 lbs on it they are not real sturdy if you plan on rolling it around much. It works great for what I purchased it for

I wouldn't recommend bying this if your dog weight 20 pound.My doggy is 13 pounds and it seams that the sit is not strong enough to hold it.This is the perfect but for dogs up to 10pounds.That's my opinion Helena

It should. There is still room at the top when I put a 30 pound bag of food in it. I cut the top of the bag open and fold the top down and it fits fine. Three more pounds shouldn't be a problem. It works well to store my corgis food.

I don't think so. My dog is 10 lbs. I think the size could handle 5 more pounds, but the strap is fairly short to keep the pooch safely in the basket. We do love the basket.

I don't think it would hold a 20 lb cat. I bought it for a 9 lb dog and it's great. I also have a 23 lb cat and I wouldn't use it for him. Hope this helps!

It's pretty strong. Although our dog is only 75 lbs, I think it would hold a much heavier animal.

It can definitely carry that much weight. Loading it properly to distribute the weight could be important. I love mine!

I bought it for my cat and he weighs 17 lbs, I think 20 pound dog would be ok.

Yes, I think so. I was able to put two 20 lbs dogs in the cart. The cart is pretty high quality. I really like it.

I would get a different jacket for that weight. If you're not looking to lift the dog up using the handles then this will work just fine.

The packaging states that it is rated for 20 lbs. We haven't loaded it up that high so I can't say for sure. It looks like it will handle at least 10 lbs and more. Part of this rack is metal and part is plastic. I'm thinking that it will handle close to 20 lbs new, but as that plastic ages, the rating should decrease to a lower number.

My dog is 18 pounds, and I take it with me grocery shopping. It holds her and maybe 10-15 pounds of food, but I can tell that I've been using it to the max. The buttons come undone(they button back) and the wheels are not that durable.

It carries my daughters 15 lb rabbit just fine but not 100% certain about a 20 lb dog. However, I'd guess it would work just fine :)

From my experience with Wald's rear baskets, as far as weight goes, I'd say sure, if it were 16 lbs of groceries. But with all respect to everyone who has replied, because it's your dog, I would ask the manufacturer. For liability's sake, they might tell you no in any case, but maybe they have better recommendation. Or you might ask your vet if he's seen mishaps or special carriers.
