Shelves are pretty sturdy and can hold quite a bit, however as a whole the structure isn't. Almost broke it carrying out of the apartment when moving out as it's it's susceptible to being twisted/arc when held from both ends.

Not sure but mine support at least a full load of books. Seem just as sturdy as any bookshelves, though they're definitely better looking than most!

The shelves are sturdy, with support at all 4 corners. Distributed evenly I would guess they could hold 10+ pounds. Mine store a dozen baseballs in holders, on each shelf, with no problem.

Each shelf holds 30 lbs. We had a big dishnet receiver on one shelf, xbox on another, and dvd on the third. We love it.

Hmmm... 50lbs of weight on one shelf... that may be pushing it? I'd say about 25-30lbs max on each shelf.... Sorry!

I don't know the exact weight allowance for each shelf. I have stacks of folded fabric in rows on each shelf, and shelves seem to be sturdy. It would depend upon what you are putting on the shelves.

It's pretty sturdy, but I think each shelf's weight limit is 10 pounds. I wouldn't try a TV on it.

I really can't answer that. These shelves are in my utility room and I use the top for folding clothes and the shelves underneath for storing laundry detergent and cleaning supplies, so there isn't much weight on them.

I think a weight of 30/40 lbs. per shelf would be OK, providing it was not in the center of a shelf on a small area.

The weight limit for each shelf is about 2lbs. I use this shelf vinyl sweater organizer not only for sweaters but alsofor my art/craft supplies. If you go over the 2lbs placing heavy items then more than 2 1/2 lbs. will buckle.

Can't say for certain. I have light things on them. I would guess that the shelves, despite the light weight, could support smaller items that would add up to 50 pounds, I would not place one heavy item of that girth on any one shelf. The balance type design, that is the shelf stands on the flat ends of the four folding panels this discourages me more from adding too much weight more so than the potential of the shelves buckling. It works for me b/c I never intended to place heavier objects and it serves more as a divider that storage or display for large items. Hope this helps I know it is inconclusive but I don't want to go outside my experience range. Can't say for certain. I have light things on them.

The description says each shelf has a 350 pound capacity. It should handle it. I am getting one to use as a makeshift bookcase in a closet.

You will need to go somewhat light with this because it is plastic. That being said, it's very strong. I'd say you could probably put up to 30 pounds per shelf, if evenly distributed. Maybe more. --DT

The specs say each shelf can hold up to 75 lbs. I have had canned goods on them...the shelves held, but they sagged a little in the middle under the weight of all those cans. For the shelves where the weight was far less than 50+ pounds, there was no sag at all. I use them in the pantry and for utility shelves, and I love them.

I have 2 sets of China and curios in it. Not exactly sure how much weight each shelf can hold.

I used 2 of these brackets, screwed into studs, with a 36 inch long 1x8 for the shelf. As configured, the shelf supports a variety of laundry detergents and supplies which weigh, in all, about 10 pounds. I would not use it to support anything that weighed more than 20 pounds. The brackets are well worth the money I paid for them. I wish I could send you a photo, but I don't know how.

I wouldn't be able to completely answer that question. The maximum weight i have exerted on one shelf is about 15 pounds which is books. I wouldn't try to put anything too heavy on it. My weight is distributed on the shelves.The shelves are wider as it gets to the bottom.

These shelves are holding a combination of books and miscellaneous papers/files, spread out pretty evenly. I would guess that if you distribute the weight evenly you'll be okay.
