Are these heavy enough to be used as balloon weights?

If the buckets/balloons are on a flat surface, you could put sand in the buckets.

They are not heavy. I thought you can Crazy Glue a fishing line to them with a weight reaching bottom of lake to them. That might work.

We use them for a leaf that we have for our Kitchen Island. They seem to be pretty strong..I would think about a 100 pounds or more.

I didn't use them in balloons. I put them on hooks like used for Christmas ornaments & hung them in bushes & a tree to decorate for a party. They worked great for that.

I really don't think these will hold that much weight, but I could be wrong. The only way to know for sure is to try it, but if they break you're out the cost of the units. Good luck!

They are really light. I would guess they weigh less than 3lbs un-inflated.

You can lift about 10 pounds with one balloon. Just don't over fill them or they will become too easily broken.Bon voyage, Grandma!!

i wouldn't say they're weighted, they're more like resistant with a somewhat heavy feel.

There are no weighted inserts; but, the bottom is considered weighted, because it is thicker. I've had no problem with "ballooning."

they are really big. i used them as a hot air balloon for my daughter's wizard of oz birthday. you could definitely see the person through them. i tied the net to a basket and my 4 year old could stand in the basket and was still under the balloon. i thought they were great.

They're not really "weighted" but we haven't had any problems with them. They are good quality and solid.

They are not weighted at all. The end cap can come off and you can add some weight if you would like.

well, I think one balloon can lift a 10lbs. payload. So divide the weight of the person by that much and that's how many balloons you'll need.

Yes, these are plain balloons that you can probably get in the dollar store. I bought them thinking they would stay up once they were inflated with helium, which they did not

We are using them in a public setting to protect rare and valuable wall hangings; weight has not been an issue. Sorry I can be more helpful.

I'm not sure how much they weigh, but I would have a hard time believing one of these weighs a pound. They're solid, though, so it's possible. They are great quality - look great and great value. Can't complain.

It has been my experience with these bags that if you fill them completely, you shouldn't have any problems. I live in a fairly windy area and have never had a problem. My city park accepted them with no problem. I think they might weigh closer to 30 pounds when completely full. I hope this helps.
