What is the weight capacity or limit for sitting on the closed lid? Will the plastic lid hold up?

I bought this because I believe the weight capacity to be greater with this model. It's very sturdy and comfortable. It also has four legs molded into it with rubber grips.The LED is nice too.

I don't know the weight limit, but my husband and I can sit comfortably on it, and he weighs >200 pounds.

Given that the seat is plastic, I would not load it above 175 pounds. The user in our household weighs about 120 pounds.

I would say it can hold up to 250 lbs. My Husband is 200 lbs and sits on it all the time with no issues.

My grandchildren sit on it. That's one reason I bought it. It would probably hold 150 lbs on occasion, but it wouldn't hold up to that for long.

It's not durable enough for sitting... It can hold some weight but I wouldn't recommend it. It is great for storing winter/summer bedding which is what I use mine for.

I don't know how much it can hold but I am a 200 pound man and have no worries sitting on it.

I'm not sure how much weight it will hold, although it is very sturdy. It is made for children, so large people would be unable to sit.We have 8 grandchildren, 5 years and younger so we bought two table, then a third for our lake house. We are extremely pleased! (Lunchroom quality tables.)

It holds reasonable weight. My four year old can sit on it and read. The storage is sort of wimpy. We just put barbie stuff in it, so it works, but if you want reasonable toy storage, it does not hold that much.

I seems to be able to support a good amount of weight. It is used as a guest chair for men and women of all shapes and sizes and it has held up well so far. Don't know the exact weight, but could be as much as 200 lbs.

Although it is well made, I wouldn't try to put your entire body weight on the lid. I have sat down on it though without mishap. Hope this helps.

I try to push it down with my hand, and it was a little pushed down. Although it seems to be strong, and I felt it may not be as much as it can stand a heavy person's weight, and certainly I wouldn't sit on the lid. Though, we are very satisfied with this seat.

I'm about 180 lbs and can sit on this easily. It seems very sturdy, and I wouldn't have thought twice about having 2 or even 3 people sitting on it. Though now that you ask about weight limits I suppose I might be a little more cautious when that 3rd person sat down, depending on how much everyone weighed.

It's OK for a child or lightweight person. I'm not sure I'd want to use it as a chair, though. It's not made for that and my guess is that it would weaken the lid over time.

They don't recommend sitting on it unless all 3 sections are folded up. It is very sturdy though, and I have out several objects on it in the closed (unfolded) position that weighed 25-50 pounds, and it hasn't really flexed. I am extremely happy with this product.

Yes the lid is durable enough for an adult to sit on top. Our weights are between 55-80 kg. hope it helps.
