How much weight will one bar support ? Can you hang a dripping wet pair of jeans on one bar? Would that make it tip over or need to be balanced?

I am not sure about the weight since I don't weigh the cloth. You can hang the dripping water jeans on one bar. The legs and the bars are sturdy. No need to worry about balancing.

Very strong ... dripping wet means no problem ... legs are designed so it is very hard to turn over ...

I have not ever tried that. If placed right this rack holds an entire load of wash. I do blankets but lay it across the top bars. I dry everything except bed linen & dry on these 2 racks. I have 2 & use them all the time !!! Deb

The bars can hold quite a bit. I hang several pairs of wet jeans on them, right out of the spin cycle. I can't speak to dripping wet jeans. You could hang one pair on a center rod for balance, or pairs on each side to balance it. It's a sturdy drying rack.

I hang jeans, sweatpants, shirts...everything right out of the washer. I have never had a problem with it tipping when I hang jeans on one bar.

mine has never tipped over and I don't think it would as it's well balanced -whether I put one pair of wet jeans on it or several. I'm glad that I finally bought it as I used to have to find spots to hang my things.

I've put a wet blanket on it - evenly distributed though. It's lightweight but sturdy. I have filled every bar with wet clothes although no jeans yet and it held up fine.

I have only put a minimal amount of weight on these hooks and just for hanging some thing on a closet rod but think that they will hold much more than I have been hanging. But in answer to your question I would say that you could hang 30 lbs with out them bending.

yes you should be able to hang a normal length shirt on the metal bar and it not touch the floor. however, if it's an extra long shirt it may touch the floor. be careful though. although the bar is sturdy, too much weight on the front could cause it to fall over.

The bar does not support the weight. I had a special wood plague made on which the bar is anchored to. The towels do touch but they drape nicely .

I would agree with the other comments. This is not the purpose I bought it for. My concern would be wet hands. Bar to me is slick.

Probably would be fine....you would have a gap under the bar extension but wouldn't see an issue with that. 4 on each side would be a bit cramped but you could pull it off....as long as it wasn't for 4 fat people :) Good luck. I've had the bar a while now and for the price it is hard to beat.

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 have this hanging just over the top molding of my laundry room door and I mostly just use the bar rather than the pull out rails. I hang wet jeans on it all the time but i usually attach them to a hanger either folded over or clipped at the ankle. I can hang several pairs of pants to dry on it this way. I do think you could drape two pairs of jeans over the bar. Hope this helps.

Personally I wouldn't throw the bar around too much. It is three pieces held together with pins. The pins may come loose.

I think ti depends on how it's installed ............ you can put more weight on it if you drill the screws into wall studs vs just the wall. Having said that, I have mine installed/screwed into the wall stud and I hang heavy wet clothes on it to drip dry; I load it up and I've had no problems.

While it might be possible with the inversion boots (I don't think it's possible, much less feasible without them), I would not recommend it, unless the bar is permanently fixed in place. While the bar will support your weight, taking off the boots without the bar falling down would be a difficult challenge. TL;DR Possible with the boots, still not recommended unless bar is glued in place.

The wooden bars are very sturdy; we have hung (weight/volume-wise) what we would hang on metal bars and there has been no problem whatsoever! I hope this helps?!

We've put four pairs if jeans on it as well as four of my blouses with no problem. We do hang them so the weight is evenly distributed though. We use the thin huggable hangers instead of wooden or plastic ones as they aren't as heavy and fit nicely in the slots. I also put my damp coat on there to dry and drape socks over the rails. No problems. Just remember to distribute the weight evenly! Hope this helps.

That depends upon how it's attached to the wall. The bar itself will hold up to more than 350lbs. Plenty sufficient to for very obese especially if their feet are on the floor.

We have a mat under the bar on top of the bottom support bars that provides weight. We have never had it fall or tip over.

Tighten it until you cant tighten anymore. Use a good screwdriver which fits so that you dont strip the screws, but I have a double bar on one of mines and have 30 pairs of jeans on each bar and it does not slide down at all on me. I love these racks. Not to be funny but make sure whoever tightens it has good strength in their wrists. It should tighten for you and not slide. I have 44inch waist jeans also which outweigh the smaller sizes and yes 30 on each bar.

This is rigid plastic and has shelves which you can install or not. I don't know how you would put in a hanging bar. If you puncture the plastic it would be weakened and depending on how heavy the clothes are the weight could damage or destroy the cabinet. There are less costly solutions for hanging even more clothing than this could.
