What is the weight limit for the shelves?

I dont know exactly but I am using them as supports for a table top and sewing supplies. not fully loaded yet but I am guessing they could hold easily 100 lbs each and probably 150 each. they are particle board so I don't expect them to be exceptionally sturdy. they are nice for the price

I am not sure if the top shelf would handle the weight of it? I know the bottom shelf would be ok but I am not sure on the weight limit on the top shelf.

Not sure of exact weight, but my shelves are already curving under the weight. Look for another bookcase if you want sturdy.

As I recall, the official weight limit for the top shelf is around 35 pounds, butthese things are built like a fortress.

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

Each shelf holds a certain number of pounds. 75lbs weight is the absolutely maximum it will allow. I cant be sure about each shelf because I sold the thing. I was really unhappy with it on how cheap it was for the price

I would not suggest heavy items. Shelves are only anchored into one side plus they are not solid wood..they are hollow and light weighr

I am not sure what you are considering placing on these shelves so it is difficult to assess your exact needs...if i knew your weight requirements then I could make a better assessment. I have only used them for shoes...but they are well constructed and sturdy. They feel like they could hold considerable weight without bowing or bending.

I'm not sure about how much weight but I have these in my garage and in my basement and I have all kinds of things on the shelves - seems like it holds a lot if you ask me. Very sturdy. Sorry if I couldn't be too specific.

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

Not sure what their exact limit is but I would not put more than a couple of pounds on each shelf. As I stated in my review the side rail broke while we we assembling it. I am still waiting to hear back from the company...guess its a good thing I didn't hold my breath!

No sure on weight but my shelves are loaded with childrens books and toys. They are really sturdy.

I would guess about 15-20 lbs. I use mine for dvd's and VHS tapes and each shelf is loaded. My only issue was because I used it for that it didn't hold as many as I hoped.

The shelves would definitely not hold 25 lbs. I have light items like cosmetics on mine (I have it in a bathroom). I love the shelf unit, but it isn't sturdy in that way.

We bought these about 6 months ago and couldn't be happier with them. They look great and are extremely sturdy. We did brace the back so they could not fall forward. I'm not sure the weight limit is but we have not had any problems with anything we have loaded on the shelves.

I figure it was about 35-45 lbs. Remember it can hold up to 350lbs per shelf!! Its worth the effort.

I don't know, I use them for my son video game system and controllers. The shelves are metal and seems to be very strong and I feel the could hold at least 30 or more pounds easily
