Is it sturdy enough to sit on?

I weigh about 160 lbs and just sat on it, and it felt very sturdy...much more sturdy than I thought. It didn't feel like it would collapse or warp, but I still wouldn't want to sit on it often or put tons of weight on it for fear of warping it. It is a great chest. Hope that helps! :)

No. I wouldn't sit on it. There is no support in the lid. Continuous weight would eventually push in the lid. It looks great at the foot of my bed for storage.

I love it - it's great for storing toys/blankets, but I wouldn't sit on it. Also, after I bought this on Amazon, I saw it for $60 at Home Goods, and then for $40 at TJ Maxx. :)

definitely NOT. While it is sturdy, the reeds just aren't strong enough to sit on.

Should be ok for someone less than 150 lb. I sat on it to try it out and was ok for me. It is not a heavy duty piece of furniture however.

It is very sturdy. My husband and I have sat on it together (400 lbs total) with no problem.

Yes, its plenty sturdy. We use it for extra seating at parties. Works well.

Yes, we've had for a year and a half and it's quite sturdy-I sit on it all the time :) could probably support two adults with no problem.

It's certainly is strong enough to support a person. I weigh 250 pounds and I sat on it without fear that it would break. Actually due to the depth of the box the curved top makes it more comfortable to sit on.

It is pretty sturdy, I have just used it for food and wine, glasses etc, I wouldn't sit on it tho, lol

Fairly sturdy, depending upon what you compare it to and how heavy the person is sitting on it. We have about 12 of these that get used all day, every day. No problems yet. I'm sure there are better ones out there, but not for $100.

No I don't think so its pretty sturdy. How ever I will try it out and get back to you about that question.

It seems pretty sturdy. Anything under 200 lbs would barely make an impression my daughter and I sometimes sit on it at the same time (220 or so) and it doesn't seem any worse for wear.

Yes, it is very sturdy. I sit on mine 7 or so hours per day at work, bouncing to the music. A good work out for legs, abs and glutes.

My 53 lb. 7 year old son sits on it sometimes, it holds him up pretty well, lol. We tend to pile a lot of stuff on it sometimes, so I think it is pretty sturdy.

I would say yes. It is metal and very sturdy so sitting on it shouldn't be a problem.

I believe the description says it shouldn't be used for sitting, but yes you can sit on it if needed. It's quite stable.

It's pretty sturdy and I think it could handle it. 2 full-grown adults have sat on mine without any worries

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.

To be honest I don't know I had a guest a little over two hundred pounds sit on it with no issues. The material that it's made with is very sturdy so I would imagine that it could hold a decent amount of weight.
