How durable is this closet rod? I am looking for a "heavy duty" rod that can hold a lot of clothes.

It DOES hold the clothes. It sways a bit but is quite strong. I like that it is adjustable as well. I'd buy it again.

I used this to double my closet space and had the rod full. It has held up perfectly and holds more than I expected. I did however try to put lighter items on it to be safe. I might not recommend placing an entire rack of winter coats on it.

This is hanging in my elderly mom's closet. ...she hangs lots on it and its holding up well.

In my opinion, it is excellent. I have all women's tops on it and it is loaded. Never have any problems with it. Fixing to buy one for my daughters closet.

I have had 2 of these units up in my attic for about 4 months. They are filled with clothes, shoes and other boxes. So far. I am impressed and feel positive they will be suitable. We have had other, less sturdy racks like this that could not bear the weight of the clothes that we have in them... And they are moderately packed now. I feel I could add more, safely. I only access these clothes occassionally. These items are truly for storage so I only open and close the zippers five or six times per year. I am concerned that if opened and closed daily, the fabric and zippers for the closures may not hold up. I am extremely pleased with these units for my purposes.

mine did not do so well over a short time. The right side has completely collapsed and at this time I have it leaning against the back wall to hold it up. There was no weight placed on the bottom of the closet and it needs to be thrown out but I have to find a more substancial unit to replace it before I can get rid of it. Mine has no coats or sweaters, just dresses. Also, the plastic on just the front has ripped. Not suggested for consistent use. I do not wear the dresses often so I do not use it on a daily or weekly basis.

I think it's more than sturdy enough to hang clothes from while also holding the curtains. It isn't sturdy enough that I'd grab and hang on it as a person though--so it has limits.

In pounds? I'm not sure. What I DO know is that I had the full length of the rod used, probably 45 to 50 garments on plastic and velvet hangers, the garments are all ladies blouses and dressses, no suits, no jackets, co coats... and the dang casters all fell apart, one by one mind you.I had to go buy a new set of hard rubber casters. Not a huge deal, it's just a bummer that it comes with such crappy casters, they should be heavy duty enough to hold up as much weight as the hanging bar and shelves can accomodate. I wasn't even using the shelves.Hope that helps.

The rod and hangers are very well made and strong. If anchored well and I mean very well, they should hold just about any curtain you choose. Just make sure that when you go beyond 60 or so inches that you use the center support. I bought very nice blackout curtains through amazon and am very pleased. Remember, anchoring the supports securely is the key. Good luck !

It will not work with a second rod very well. It can be done and it does stick out but its better with one high rod. Out of 4 closets I have with these, one has that problem and I still use it because it helps me organize and my child wanted what his siblings had. It doesnt bother me much anymore but it doesnt look very nice.

They are just a tad heavier but not enough to make a big difference. You will be able to get more cloths on the rod since they are thinner so that might make it heavier. I redid my whole closet and absolutely love mine!

I am pleased how sturdy this rack is. I am a big guy and holds a lot of my clothes and is in no danger of tipping. Much better than the cheaper racks i had before. I don't know the rated capacity but works well for me.

This thing is a workhorse! I hang at least 5 pairs of wet jeans and 8 or 9 wet t-shirts at one time. I haven't had any problems with it drooping under all the weight. Just make sure you use a stud finder before hanging it.

I think so, I have it loaded with clothes and holding up well! Hope this helps!

I store off season clothes in them. I bought 3 of them and spread the heaviest items out (like coats) between them. Not as sturdy as wood, but they work well for us.

I would definitely say "yes." Mine has been well overloaded with clothes for the past 3.5 years, and still holding up extremely well. And, yes, the rack is collapsible.

The rack that I purchased is very well built and will hold lots of seasonal clothes. It rolls very well and is very sturdy, no tipping, as I roll it in and out of a closet. It is well worth the money. The hanging bar is not adjustable (can not shorten).

I have no idea the weight limit. I like the rod and I hang plenty of clothes on it so it'e sturdy enough.

Funny, I was thinking "overkill" before I read the one other reply. The one thing that impressed me about the hangers and the matching metal track they ride in is just how heavy duty they are. For your application(shower) maybe look at something intended to roll a closet door.

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.
