Are they a heavy bench so when a 90 year old sits down or pushes up/off from it it isn't going to move?

They are made of cast aluminum so they are fairly heavy and ours seems to be pretty stable.

It is a very nice bench, very well built. Heavy , not really. I went and set on mine and pressed down on the arm as I was getting up and it seems pretty sturdy. The finish is great and seems to be holding up. Hope this helps.

Does it really matter how heavy they are if they are so poorly miss alined in order to assemble them that it will never matter?? This is a LEMON get rid of it! Maybe 90 yr olds will not sue Amazon for ending up flat on their backs and ending their glorious lives! LM

it is very sturdy, I am not sure what surface you would have it on but on bricks you can push off quite easily. It is comfortable for sitting. and looks lovely on my front porch.

It's a heavy bench--you need two hands to pick it up. I don't know if it will move when a 90 year old person pushes up/off from it.

It works great for me pushing my 85 year old 125 lb mother. She pushes it when she wants to walk and it is VERY light for me to pick up and put in the car. Hope that helps.

I function on a senior level. I have not noted problems with the chair wanting to tip. I think it would require a significant effort to do that. The legs are fairly wide and seem stable. I guess if you were extra heavy it could happen. As with any chair one could slide off, but I don't see that is very likely here either.

While I cannot tell you the lbs, I bought it for my 85 year old mom and it is HEAVY. She can drag it but if you are buying this for an elderly relative, you may want to consider a different model. I bought it bc it is very sturdy but that means heavy. If you can leave it in the kitchen, they can drag it around.

The bench is solid and heavy enough for normal sitting. I would not suggest using it if you expect kids to play/jump etc. on it.

I don't think so. The legs seem pretty stable. This bench is a great buy! I'm very satisfied!

for a 91 year old, it should be. my grandma uses it to brace her self when we are transporting her. she also uses it to slide push herself up when she is trying to escape.

I am 240 and it can hold me pressing on it. My wife is 130 and she puts her legs on it and has zero problems.

They r at 90 but when you put some weight on it they do give a little. I use them as a work bench and have folding legs when I want to put heavy tools on it. Put weight on it and shim the side attached to the wall.

Yes, very study, the paperwork says it safe up to 250lbs and it seems to be true. Very well constructed and very balanced. My mother who is 89 and 145 lbs loves it.

We bought this for my 90 yr old mother-in-law who is about that height and it works fine for her. She tires easily and uses the seat for resting and also carrying items.

My dad is 160 and he feels secure and safe with walking. He does not have to use it to stand or sit.

I live in a second floor condo, so I actually pushed it up the stairs like a sled. I'm 61, and it wasn't that difficult to maneuver. If you feel that it's too heavy, open it when it gets delivered and bring it in a few pieces at a time. Hope this answer helps. :-)

Yes. I often set them myself or release them as needed. I reach behind my back on either side and can manipulate the brakes, which are below the handles. It isn't the easiest thing to do, but I am a senior citizen (76) and find that it is not too difficult to do. It isn't heavy, I can say that.

I had no problem putting it together and I am 50 something...it does have quite a bit of resistance.

So glad you asked! I bought this for my 85 year old mother. She loves to garden. She weighs 125 pounds. She did not flop down on it when she would use it. The top cracked and is so badly my husband had to get her stuck bottom out of it! She does repeat herself and she says constantly that they don't.make things like they used to when she looks at this cart. Her cart she had at home was over 25 years old. I keep telling her that I will buy her another one and she asks, "Why, it will just break again". I will try to find her a different one. To answer your question, it is 13 inches high.

I personally have had well over 400 lbs on mine and had no problems. The only issue I have with the bench is that it sits higher than most, in other words I 72 inches tall ( 6ft 2inches) and when I lay flat to bench I have a hard time putting my feet flat on the floor.
