I bought this for my husband who has much larger hands than I do. I find I can not use the high quality knives that he uses because of my arthritis and the smaller size of my hands makes his knives off balance for me. Having said that - I do not know how heavy it is because I just tip it up and rock it. I find that the weight of this is it's asset for me because I do not have to grip it hard or push down on it. I simply rock it and before I know it the job is done. Hope this helps.

I believe the handles are solid and it is very sturdy. I don't know the exact weight but it feels like the same weight as a good quality knife if that helps you? That said, the nice part about the mezaluna is that you don't have to lift it, rather you rock it back and forth to cut, so I would think it would be ideal for someone with arthritis. Good luck!

If I had arthritis, I wouldn't buy this item. Although it seems easy to use, I believe the cutting, in comparison to a knife, would be a little trickier and the both wrists would definitely be is use. The item itself is not that heavy but heavy enough not to be maneuvered easily. Good luck.

It weighs a tad over a pound. But if you have trouble gripping knives this would be ideal. You don't have to keep lifting it, just rock it over what you are chopping. Sharp and effective.

The articls is not heavy at all. The 36" was maybe 5 pounds. While standing I was able to pick the whole article up from one side using nothing but my arms, and I am not a strong person.

I purchased it for my grandson who is 12. He has no problem lifting it...I hope that helps...I don't think its heavy at all.

It says 7.7 lbs and I believe that it weighs about that. It is wonderful and so easy to use. I have RA and should not lift more than 5 lbs and I use it nearly every day with no problem.

My husband said it was about 50lbs.. He's a pretty good judge of these things as he lifts things all the time with his work. I just sold it as I'm too ill to use it. I did love it and it worked great for me while I had it.

It isn't very heavy at all. When it is unfolded, I can move it around easily and I have a bad back. I use it for doing back exercises. Good quality for the price, I think.

It weighs less than my regular walker but is very sturdy. It folds up by pressing down on a spring loaded lever. The lever is fairly large so it is great if you have trouble with arthritis. There are 2 of these levers, one on each side just below the top cross bar. My therapist specifically recommended this one for many good reasons. I love it. Regards, Ron P.

Not very heavy! I haven't weighed it but I'm not a very big woman and I can easily move it around and set it up.

Don't buy this one. I don't have arthritis and it is kind of tough for me....

It is not overly heavy. I can pick it up and move it by myself, when empty. I am a 63 year old not super strong female.

Not very heavy. I am old and weak and I can use it. (sort of a joke, but I am old)

I don't know exactly, but it is very heavy. I am not the strongest woman in the world, but I really struggle to lift it.

I haven't weighed it, but I am 5' 1" and 108, and I can lift it no problem. It is very light.

I am 70 yrs old. I have been ill.. so maybe I am just weak. However, its still pretty heavy.

Not heavy at all, maybe 5-7 lbs. You slip it on like a back pack. B advised though, the arm frames are of very light tubular metal. Mine collapsed when I used the arms to assist in pushing me up. Just felt like I should mention that. It's a super neat concept though.
