How much weight can these hold? I usually purchase one or two gallons of milk during my shopping trips. Would these hold up?

Absolutely, they are strong. I have fit 24packs of cans in each and they topped them up with other groceries. They're brilliant.

I've put sort of heavy things in mine, but I wouldn't trust it with 2 gallons of milk. Especially if you do it on a regular basis.

I have had 6 bottles of wine and a six pack, another time my wife filled both sides with picture frames and glass, heavey load. It foldes up nicely, it has held up to any load I put in, it is easy to put on and get off. I sometimes use it as my shopping bag. the weak point is going to be the rack you use. I did crash once with the basket open. it bent the frame a little, but it was fairly easy to bend back, "it has a stout frame", the fabric held up fine. The only thing it doesn't have is a cover for rain. I am going to get another one for my wifes bike. I really like the quaility and the function of this product. Make sure your rack is sout.

These will definitely take one gallon on each side. They could probably do two in each bag, but I would advise against it unless it is a pretty smooth route. The shock could cause a support to bend or the bag to tear. If bumps are avoided, they should hold up just fine. There is a fairly rigid plastic bottom-plate to the pannier.

yes; each bag will hold 2 gallons of milk and then some; still room for other items; very durable and sturdy;

I use these for my grocery shopping twice a week. Two gallons of milk, one on each side, including other items are no problem.

They held approximately 45 to 50 lbs. Don't purchase the ones that I commented on though. The bags would have been ok except they were folded and the fold created a "stretched" place in the mylar. Make sure the bags you purchase are rolled for shipping.

I've loaded mine down with toiletries and they seem to handle it fine. I would say that if you plan on high usage, they may not stand up over time with too much wieght loaded into them.

No, these would not hold you. My 16 yr. old son, weighing about 140 soaking wet bent a pair while hiking. He did have 30 - 40 lbs. on his back, but I would want something sturdier to hold me up.

The shelves are screwed in and I have a gallon of water stored on the two bottom shelves. They weigh about 8.3 lbs ea. One gallon per shelf is all that will fit. If the cans aren't too heavy they should hold up quite well depending on how many cans and their weight.

I can't say for sure what the weight capacity is. I can tell you that I have had 2gallons of milk plus 6 - 8 plastic grocery bags of assorted items without any problems and would be able to add more easily. I did have some issues trying to move gardening items around in the grass pushing the cart. Pulling was no problem at all because of the bigger wheels in back.

I've never tried Milkies, but these are great for collecting milk. I use them in the morning when I'm super full and leaky. They hold about an ounce.

I have been able to hold 21lbs before. That seemed to be near the limit. I put 15lb watermelon in them often.

The handles are sturdy. I think they'd probably safely carry 10-15 pounds. I don't think the plastic would hold up well in the freezer if you were planning to store them there, but lifting frozen items OUT of the freezer would be fine, I believe.

My experience was that they were only leak proof if they remain total upright. I had so many things leak out of them including yogurt if they fell over!

0votesYes - but just barely. Assuming the handles point straight back as most do. And, re a previous comment, the bag is plenty big enough to hold two gallon jugs of milk plus a quart of '1/2 and 1/2' (plus a few small extras. The top has a velcro fastener which allows you to overfill the bag slightly. We love it!

Hello, They can hold up to 220 lbs (evenly distributed). I hope this helps!OEMKiaSuperStore

Sorry to respond so late. I have not tried them yet. I have every confidence that it would do fine. Whole milk works great.

I could put fluid in one and check. However, not really sure I would trust them to hold liquid or even food for that matter. I bought them for documents since they are label by inches and not by quarts or gallons.

They are very sturdy. They should be able to hold quite a bit just don't overload the bag.

I think they would hold a cup of water. They work very well. They are a little on the thin side but they do hold up overnight.
