Weight on Amazon says "8 pounds", is it possible this is a typo and it's really 8 ounces? If yes, does this explain the high shipping estimate?

This is a solidly built unit, that will hold and keep upright (when unfolded) large beveragebottles and other heavy grocery containers. A figure of 8 lbs shipping weight seems aboutright. Buy one, you will not regret it - its a quality item.

I doubt it's 8 lbs. More like 2 or 3. Definitely not 8 ounces. Could be a shipping category.We use ours all the time to put groceries in. You could actually fit 2 in the back of your Outback and I've often wished we had more than 1.

8 lbs sounds high but it is definitely more than 8 ounces. This thing is pretty durable and rugged feeling. With packaging 8 lbs is probably close.

its it a little heavy... but that's good because it's durable. I don't have a scale, but i would estimate between 3-5 lbs. It is a really useful thing to have, and its weight gives it good structure.

I would say that this organizer weighs in the neighborhood of 5 to 8 pounds. It's surprisingly heavy and very sturdy and is made of quality materials unlike the superficially similar ones you will find at discount stores. It's also worth noting that it's made in the U.S.A.; this may also explain the weight difference between it and cheaper, Chinese-made products.

I can tell you it's not 8 ounces, I am not sure of its weight but 8lbs sounds correct. I love it is limited if you use it for bags from the store but it keeps things from sliding all around.. I am thinking about getting a 2nd one...

Mine is no more than a pound or two. I wonder if the "8 pounds" refers to the capacity? Not sure about the shipping cost.

Amazon calculates the shipping based on the estimated combined weight of multiple items. So, yes you will. However, Amazon controls the calculations. FYI We are the only distributor for our products, please check the vendor name when you purchase to be sure the product is coming from the supplier you intend to order from as quality can vary considerably. ~ Emerald Goddess Gardens

When I clicked on this item to get the description, I see the shipping weight listed at 1 pound. So I am not sure I understand your 5-8lb concern. I am not going to weigh the one I have, but heavy never entered my mind. In many cases, heavy adds stability. I have to say it does appear to be well made, but I suspect there are other that are lighter weight.

No, the actual item weighs 6.3 ounces. The shipping weight may be trying to account for dunnage and shipping box weight.

I do not know the answer to that as I have no way to weigh it. It is very lightweight though and I'd guess that the actual weight is half of the shipping weight of 1 pound. So, probably about 8 oz.

Because Amazon's shipping calculator is off. To get the shipping right on this, I use the shipping wheight to adjust shipping price. The actual product weight is 15lbs. I hope this helps. Please let me know if you need anything else. Matt

Betty,Thank you for your question. The shipping weight was just the default setting for that item by probably Amazon.We are going to pulling up some more pictures for that item, so you will see the original UPC number and some more details so you can check our item by Apple store to make sure it is original.Regards

I'd say the 4 oz was more accurate. Maybe it's 2lbs shipping weight with packaging?

Unbelievable! I want to buy four of these and the shipping is going to be $19.96! What's the total weight, a couple of ounces? What's up with that Amazon???

It's heavy duty and a nice, useful organizer. But it is not 8 pounds. That's probably the total packaged shipping weight.

Ah, yeah I see that, the item weight is 8 oz. They put pounds instead of ounces in the item weight. There are 12 packages in the box, each package is 8 ounces.

That has to be a misprint. It is 8lbs. with the blower attachment. It is very easy to maneuver.

Ummm. Check the "more information" tab. It's all on there. And it AIN'T 8 lbs, 6 oz! Yikes!Try .9 lbs and it'll fit in my closed fist. :)

It's a mis-print. I just tried to update it. Shipping should be around $8 once up updates, give it a few minutes (2:21pm EST). Thanks!

Hi Lisa, $8 sounds like a pretty good deal, I think you should buy it there. I can't sell it that cheap mostly because the shipping for that item is expensive being that it weighs more than 13 ounces. I don't charge shipping and therefore to make it equitable to sell, I have to charge what I do. Thanks for the question and happy shopping! Greg Keevy's Korner

This question of weight is coming up because under the Product Description: Amazon has the Shipping Weight as only 3.4 pounds. That is just incorrect and they need to fix that. Everything else says it's a 5 lb package. "Product Dimensions: 7.2 x 3.5 x 11.5 inches ; 5.2 poundsShipping Weight: 3.4 pounds"

I've ordered these a bunch of times and there's no way the box weighs 8 lbs! Not even close. I use amazon prime ship8ping-- so I have a flat rate no matter what. These are soo good, but def not a shipping weight of 8lbs.
