How can I make it sturdy? Or do you recommend another?

We have used this for a couple years now. It's held up fine. We actually have two different types and they both are about the same quality. I guess you could put another pole in the ground next to it then tie them together. Maybe use heavy zip ties.

Honestly, not without modifying it from the original that it comes with. It's a bit un-sturdy, and i'd recommend probably getting a higher quality one at some point.

I would agree with the other posters. Send it back and get another, that has to be a fluke. Mine is solid as a rock. I have been very happy with it.

Im going to second what this lady said. Its already not very sturdy with the L portion on. It would probably fall over on you if you didn't install the L.

No, I don't think it's sturdy enough. It's really very light, and must remain perfectly balanced in order to be truly stable.

I think you could with a jig saw or heavy duty knife. Just would want to support it if it is large

It seems sturdy to me. I think if you anchor it to a solid wall it would be fine. In fact, if I had the right type of table by my easy chair, I would buy a second one.

No problem. I have mine on it and it could hold more. It's very sturdy and can be adjusted height and width.

Interesting idea but I would say no. It is not a strong/sturdy piece. Maybe if it was heavily reinforced. I'd look for a different piece if you want a horizontal piece.

Wouldn't be hard to do at all. Just get some extra screws so it's just as sturdy when you put it back together. It is large though so I recommend 2 people.

You could. It is very sturdy. I personally wouldn't. But get some rubber pads or something of that nature.

Yes! I would actually recommend doing just that. It looks nicer, is sturdier, and comfier. I did the same thing.

It's pretty sturdy as is. I recommend building it without glue first. Then, if it is not stiff enough, try the glue solution. But with this design it's always going to have some give in various directions, so don't expect the table to be rock solid, even with bonded joints. It holds considerable weight as is.

The unit is very substantial. You could do this safely as long as you glue or fasten everything together. I would use a thin coat of some sort of glue that is transparent when dry ("Gorilla glue" comes to mind.). This would add assembly time, but would provide a sturdy wine rack.

Would need some extra support of some kind depending on what was growing on it. Mine is pretty sturdy, but I have it tethered to a fence for support of heavy grapevines

It was a bit wobby when I finished so I don't know if that was just my lack of assembly skills or the item. Technically it's sturdy enough in regards to materials and its base. Sorry that probably wasn't much help!

I couldn't recommend it. Maybe something with a handle. If bending isn't too much of an issue, then, Yes this would be good.
