I can't put screws in our balcony walls so can't hang something - would this work if I set it on the floor of the balcony? Is it stable?

Yes its stable when full to set on ground, otherwise when empty its light weight & could blow over/away.

It would stand by itself but it isn't very big. Not sure the birds would notice it if it was just sitting on the floor. You can buy hooks that go over you balcony railing that doesn't require screws to hang stuff off it.

Hanging is sufficient, however it tends to slide from side to side. Attaching screws will help

you'll have to drill and use cement anchors - but yes, it can work. YouTube cement anchor or Masonry Molly and you'll see what you need to do.

Pretty stable unless you have sculptured carpet. However, due to the height, it would be best to anchor to a wall, especially if you have children or pets around.

Nope won't work it's too rounded to work on it's side you would have to be secured with screws some how to make steady so it won't move other than that it won't work

No it cannot. The screws are located on the top therefore had to 'hang' from it's location.

i have the same set up as the picture.. if you have a thinner rod to place the mount, you will need to put something thicker to ensure that the mount will hold on your balcony rod.

Yes. There is a small hole on the bottom that you can use to hang it on a screw. We mounted ours on the wall this way. The ceiling would probably also work, but I would be hesitant to hang it directly over baby just in case it came loose. The wall would be more secure.

That is what I originally bought mine for but I ended up using them on the floor. I think you can buy hangers to put them on the wall. They are sturdy enough if you're not going to put anything real heavy on them.

Mine went on a deck , so I used some screws to secure it, but I also used some large potted plants on the four corner shelves and that really helped too. I am sure if you did this and then put something on the bottom of the four corner areas that you could put some heavy potted plants on.... you would be all set. Hope this helps

Screw it into the ceiling that is what I did and it works perfectly! If you stick it with adhesive it can fall & break I think :)

If you have one side "wall" and one side railing the tension should keep it from tipping over. We have two railings and it is very tight and stable.

I live in an apartment and have a wood fence walling off one side of my balcony. I hung it up on the fence using zip ties tied around the slats. You could also use screw in hooks like the ones that you hang hanging planters from. The tabs at the top are loops.

Absolutely not. Still wobbles a little bit even with screws in it. Used L brackets to secure it to the wall.

I think that is right on the line of plausible. I wouldn't chance it. The back is open, so the space you have to put screws is very small. They would have to be close to the edge, which means if it is going to tear, the thing will fall. You could get a very small floating shelf and set it on top of that.

I am certain that you could attach this to a wall but I have had no problems with instability and it is set up on carpet. You may want to anchor it if you are concerned about a child climbing on it. The unit does not come with the means to attach to the wall. I love mine sure holds a great deal.

How about heavy-duty twist ties? Glue wouldn't work, I don't believe. Or masonry nails? Does the high rise allow ribbons like that from a balcony?
