I weigh about 265 pounds. Will the locking mechanism hold my weight? Dan

I would expect that you would have no problem as long as the seat is mounted fully on the toilet and the screw in locking mechanism is fully tightened. I have a round bowl toilet and it fit tightly into the toilet prior to even tightening the locking mechanism.

I think it will my wife weighs about 200 and had no prob. The way it sits on the toilet is very stable. The locking part is just a screw type device that holds with compression

The locking mechanism is designed to give it a secure-fit, it was not designed for bearing weight or any kind of direct-related stress. This product will stay in place as long as the weight distribution is equally placed on it's surface. I would not lean all your weight on just one handle or side. I weight 275 lbs, and had no problem. I do hope this answers your question

My husband weighs 250 and it holds him fine. You may have to tighten the screws around every 6 months but I love them!

This is an excellent product that I'm really happy to have. It might support a heavier person. I'm a little over 200, I'll bet it will work. You might want to call the company or just try it.

No it will not hold anything over 1 lbs, anything heavier will cause the plastic leg locks to break. Already tried it.

Yes. I am 6ft2 230 lbs. I swung on it first to make sure it wouldn't slip. It held with no problems or any give what so ever.

I am 180lb and its holding ok.. I doubt if its good for 250, legs looks not that much solid..

Sure. Go to your local hardware store and get some lag bolts and flat washers to fit the holes. Drill you a 1/8 inch pilot hole then screw in the lag bolts. I am 6'5" and weigh 225 pounds. It will hold you!

When I first got my machine I weighed around 270. The machine handled that weight without any hesitation. I feel very confident in telling you that 300+ pounds won't shake this machine at all.

Well... it holds me with no problem and unfortunately I am at about 260 lbs.

I think it will hold. It might be a little cramped inside. I am about 180 and my kid is about 60 and it felt like it could have held more weight.

I'm 170 pounds, and it held my weight. Not well, mind you, but it did. The seat's connection to those metal legs is tenuous. Other people used my seat, and while I don't know their exact weights, I'd say they were each about 200.

My husband is around 265 and we do ok. He mainly pushes it and uses it as a chair when he stops. I can also push him in it without any problem.

It seems very sturdy. I weigh 210 and it doesn't now or flex. I think it could easily hold a person who weighs 350

I have been on it and weigh more than 200 lbs. no issues. I will say that if it has been assembled and used for a while the screws will need tightening, which may be why another reviewer had issues with wobble.

I don't think weight would be an issue. It is based on your height. I weigh 190 and I've cruised around on it just to test it out, and it holds up fine.
