How much weight can you can it hold? can you stack a 12lbs notebook on top of it? or take pressure of heavy handed hands?

I dunno about 12 lbs. But I put my laptop and a bunch of other stuff on top all the time. Not to mention its has withstood the test of a curious 2 year old which is no small thing. Heavy hands? Yeah. Extremely durable.

Definitely not! It cannot hold very much weight at all. Mine collapsed under the weight of about 12 books.

No. The unit is not sturdy enough to hold anything with some weight to it. A laptop and your notes are pretty much the only thing you want on there.

It can hold most textbooks and binders that I've used it with. In terms of how much, I never put too much but it can fit about 4 inches thick worth of books/binders/notepads. I don't advise doing so but that seems to be the spacial capacity.So while technically yes, very little. I advise using this bag for light loads, such as reading books + notebooks while avoiding binders and textbooks that are naturally just large/heavy.

You could get two hefty textbooks, maybe three if you are ok with a bulging middle part of the bag. It's only about 3" 'deep' with three sections(laptop, tablet, and aux.) It's a great laptop around the town bag, but not sure how durable it'd be with 20lbs. of books and school stuff in it... :-l

Yes... just like a notebook. 3/4's of an inch at the thickest point when closed. Total weight.... 2lbs 12oz.

Maybe 50lbs. The metal legs with composite desktop are pretty solid. I keep mine against a wall so it's braced and it doesn't move and it seems sturdy. I keep a computer, mug, clock and stack of papers on it and it's fine. The legs are held in place by two metal catches underneath which can come unhooked if you lift the desk up. I did it once and learned quickly.

I can't recall the weight on it but it's pretty sturdy. I'm sure it can hold your laptop plus have some room left on the side. Just make sure the legs are positioned well on the surface.

You can write on it....but it has a small wiggle to it. I use it to lecture and read from, having several large books on it, so weight is no problem. The feet have adjustable rubber pads to help balance it on uneven floors.

The side that raises is 13.5 inches; the side that doesn't raise is 8". You could certainly hold your laptop on the raised side, as far as size goes. We use it for an I pad, so I don't know if the weight of the laptop would be a problem.

I bought it to use it with my laptop, 17" monitor. Holds it with no problem, can't really say how much weight. Sorry.

I would not put over 200 pounds on top of it. I would not pack it with books or things that heavy. My best guess is that it was designed for blankets and such. There should be no problem being stuffed with that.

I think it would hold about 10lbs. Maybe a little more but I would not put much more on it. It also depends on how you have the legs arranged. I use the fans all the time with my laptop though. It will keep it from running hot and they can get awful hot sometimes. I use mine while in my recliner so it is pretty much stationary. The picture at the side is not one I would recommend using for much weight at all. It can tip over if you are not careful and do not have an item centered correctly. Hope this helps you.. It is a very nice item for what I use it for. That I can say in complete honesty. :) I think it would hold about 10lbs. Maybe a little more but I would not put much more on it.

I have been using it for a laptop computer but put a medium sized dictionary on it. If you put something fairly big and heavy I would say you need it postioned perfectly first. If left in place it should hold a fair amount but if the heavt book is on it and you move it, that may cause it to come apart.

It is substantial, but I would not trust it to hold loaded with books. The way it is designed small L brackets could be added on the edges under the top as well as under the base to reinforce for books.

it can handle that no problem. I put stuff on mine, and then lean on it sometimes, when I am talking, and I am no light weight. It is quite sturdy.

It can definitely hold a book that tall as long as it's not super duper thick. I have a big heavy calculus back that fits in this book stand fine. It's very sturdy.
