Is it sturdy enough to hold a cast iron Dutch oven without collapsing?

Although I have never used it for that, it is very sturdy. It all locks together and you can hang a lantern from it. I would assume they do not any lawsuits from burning fuel every where, so I would say it is pretty secure.

Yes, but be sure it is level. By this I mean, all three legs equally distributed weight-wise.

I've never put something that heavy on it, but have put large pots that were quite heavy with no issues. I cook with a Dutch oven, but have always put it next to the fire with coals on the lid. Works great every time!!

I never tried it but i would guess that it would if everything is set up right.

I haven't weighed the pots & pans I have hanging on this, but for about 6 months now it has successfully supported 2 cast iron skillets, 3 stainless steel skillets, 4 handled pots of varying sizes and 4 glass lids. I would just recommend making sure it's well anchored in the wall.

It holds a lot of weight with no problem. I had no problems with a toaster oven, crockpot and nuwave induction cooktop sitting on the table at the same time along with adding food items and 12-packs of beverages. It's quite strong, but could probably be knocked over easily because of the skinny legs. We had it sitting against a wall and not in the line of traffic. and it worked great.

It is very sturdy if you hang it on studs as the manufacturer suggests. But I believe the limit is 100lbs. I think cast iron skillets are way too much for this rack or pretty much any for that matter.

Yes. The shape is perfect to serve as a Dutch oven and it is pretty heavy as well.

Yes. Although it's lightweight it's sturdy enough that it won't fall over. I have a ton of utensils in it and have no problems. I'm very happy with mine

I have carried a pie i left in a springform pan and the lid stayed collapsed. It really depends on how heavy it is but its pretty darn sturdy. I love that you can transport decorated goods without worrying theyll de crushed!

Hi Justine! I'd say it could hold a small Dutch Oven and small pots and pans, yes. The weight won't be as much of an issue, though, as the width. The one I got was about 14" wide, which may not hold your larger items completely. Looks good in the kitchen, though, and not too obtrusive!

The burner is very sturdy. It is strong enough to handle an iron skillet but it could get a little top heavy if the skillet is too large.

Im using mine for towels and washcloth. I don't think it would hold cast iron cookware.

Yes it would be sturdy enough, however you would need to be very careful about spills as it does not have a sealed finish and would probably stain fairly easily.

Yes! I am pretty sure that this can hold very large, or very heavy pots. It is VERY sturdy. I am confident that cookware size wouldn't be an issue with this awesome stove :)

Absolutely, it's very sturdy. I just piled 3 lbs of cookware on it and it didn't bend at all. Happy baking.

I don't know the exact weight but it will hold a dutch oven full of food with no problems.

You could, but as long as you realize it's going to bend from the heat and weight. I'm not sure what 'sturdy' item other people are using, but I had a cast iron skillet on mine for one weekend and by the end it was bowed in the middle and all the paint had chipped off.

I doubt it. The flame tamer is in two layers about an inch apart and none of it is really heavy-duty metal. I don't think I'd trust a heavy cast-iron dutch oven on it.

Yes! It's remarkably sturdy! If you're stacking several cast iron skillets, I'd recommend screwing it down to ensure it doesn't slide or tip.
