Can it handle the weight of a few lobsters?

I don't believe it will. Maximum OD is 10.5" the center 6" is solid the outer 4" hinges out to fit different size pots. The pop up handle should hold the weight although we found that pop up handle doesn't stay down after regular use.

If you mean could it handle the weight, then absolutely. I use mine as a kitchen island, and it is very sturdy.

The box is tough, but I doubt it could manage more than 25 pounds of weight. The Handle is OK for basic tools and supplies. Mine has held up well for over a year. Very handy and useful. I suspect that more than 25 pounds would bend the handle. I don't know how much more exactly, but the handle is thin, tubular steel. I use mine to carry craft supplies and materials for political demonstrations. Paper, markers, zip ties, t-shirts and similar materials.

I have used mine to pull lobster hoops which weigh as much as 30 lbs with no problem and since I do not know the weight of a crab pot I am not sure.

It will handle that weight easily. From my own experience, I found it quite difficult to learn to use. I'm still working at it.

I have never used it for lobster, but assuming that the local fishing laws allow for this type of trap for lobstering, I think it's possible that it might work. The doors on the trap are wide enough for a lobster to fit through, but I would make sure that you have them weighted so they stay closed once the lobster is inside.

It has some weight to it but not heavy per se. The handle is a nice size so gripping would not be an issue. Unless extremely frail I thi this is a fine product. Good luck.

Yes works excellent, i have done mud crabs several times and lobster, little bit of seawater and veggies and bring it to a steam ad lobster and done in a couple of minutes.

You could definitely cook lobsters. Maybe overkill on the size unless you are cooking several lobsters.

My crab traps weigh about 60lbs but they are in the water until I grab them. All I could say is try, I do not believe its made for that use.

No it won't be able to bear the weight, the plastic on the leg extension locks will break under the weight. Already tried that and that is what happened to me.

I would say so. It will hold weight but up to a point, so a plate of food but don't sit on it.

It can definitely carry that much weight. Loading it properly to distribute the weight could be important. I love mine!

Yes the handles will hold weight unless you are planning on poaching a whale.It is a very good poacher for the price.

It can handle the weight, but barely fits my salt water rods. Gotta stagger the reels but its not a big deal.

Yes, it would likely break. It is only a half tang with thin wooden handle and fiberglass wrap.

It seems like it could handle some heavy weight but it is tall and thin in stature so it seems to me it could tip. That's just a thought for you to consider.
