I'm looking at this rack for apartment living. Compared to a similar model, this seems small. Can this hold a load of jeans and shirts well?

This is actually quite spacious. It will not only hold up a few pairs of jeans, shirts and sweaters, it is robust enough to carry the weight without collapsing.

Yes, we have used it for drying both jeans and shirts at the same time, plus it still has space for shoes, etc.

It is HUGE! I use it for sweaters, bras, dresses - basically anything I don't want in the dryer. Totally expanded it is over 5' long and is sturdy enough for wet jeans.

Not knowing what you mean by a "load of jeans" or if you're a guy or gal, let me just say it easily holds two pair of women's jeans and one shirt flat. It's pretty small.

I don't know how much weight it will hold in terms of pounds. But I can tell you that I have loaded it up all the way across the front (AND SIDES) with shirts and jeans with absolutely no problem. It's sturdier than it looks. I hope this helps.

Check the specifications. The kit comes with heavy duty anchors that screw into the Sheetrock, so the shelves are supported well. We have all of our clothes and several shelves filled with no problem.

The rack is very sturdy and well-made. As long as you balance the load, you should be OK. I recommend the rack and would buy again if I had the need.

I'm not sure exactly as I don't usually weigh my clothes... I do have both racks full to overflowing with dresses, skirts and jackets and it seems to be very sturdy still. However, I don't move it around at all. Hope this helps :-)

that's a great idea, but I haven't seen it offered. I hang clothes on my unit and bought a hanging rod, however there isn't quite enough room to hand two rows of clothes and I really don't use it :( Love the unit though, I purchased two of them. I use pretty wicker baskets for the top shelf, it's very sturdy.

The dimensions would indicate good size; however, the configuration of the bars is such that the rack does not hold as much as you would think. Many of the bars are directly below others so larger items such as jeans overlap. On the other hand, it is sturdy and folds up easily.

Yes it would work but I would ask, why wouldn't you then just buy a good garment rack? This measures only 14" deep, average hangars are about 16" wide so now you will have to pull it away from the wall in order for your clothes to NOT be hitting the wall. Also, even without the bags in place, the frame holding the bars are 36 1/2" below the pole so, comfortably, your clothes would have to NOT be longer than that or they will sit inside of the bag frame. That said, I love this unit, it's quite sturdy and compact and has everything I was looking for in a "Laundry unit, not a "full time closet" but then it is definitely a matter of taste.

I think it could hold clothes, especially if hung on both sides to balance weight. It's very lightweight, but strong.

I bought 2 of these and absolutely love them. I have not tried to move mine, but you would definitely have to take everything out to move. Would not be good for heavy items, I use mine for shirts, blouses, and pants, no heavy sweaters or coats. It is a little flimsy, but it works for what I need it to do.

I hang small items on the low rack if you are creative and a good planner. A whole load of laundry will fit on this rack.

I think it could. If you look at the photo of the object, I think you could drape each pair of jeans over the top rack... there are two large wings that come up which would give you room to put three pairs of jeans side by side. I often hang shirts on hangers from each of the different sections. Then you have some space underneath. You could also hang one pair of jeans over just a couple of the smaller dividing bars and get even more space that way. It's a little hard to describe, but the laundry rack is sturdy and I think you'll find ways to arrange things as you go.

It holds about 10 pieces of clothing. I usually do my washing 3-4 times a week. And i use this rack for clothes that are delicate and those clothes that if you hang dry the hanger will form a shape on the shoulder or sleeves of the clothes. As i said before i have used wooden rack before and found this one more covenient. Hope this helps.

It should hold lightweight items like shirts. If you're thinking of jeans, maybe one pair.

Check out the dimensions listed and measure your tub...I'm not sure how small an apt. tub would be. But it is pretty compact and light for the capacity of clothes it holds....especially if you put shirts and tank tops on hangers and hang them on the upper rails. Hope that helps a bit....

It will hold about 1 1/2 bags of groceries (the large paper kind). Yes it would hold a load of laundry, maybe more if you stuff it tight.

Yes,It very much would. I used the smaller size in a closet with very small square foot. It is great. It is very difficult to find smaller racks. I was very pleased to find it and how it worked out.
