how stable is this? It looks like it might tip over when full of files.

The product is very stable. We have it overflowing and it is still upright...

No issues with tipping here. This is probably one of the best organizational purchases that i have ever made.

The design prevents it from tipping. Mine is full and I've never had an issue. Would be difficult to tip it over, actually.

It is very stable. I have loaded it up with heavy duty (heavyweight) manila folders and have had no problem - it doesn't budge. When you carry it, carry it by the handles. I am beginning to use it for Pendaflex files, also. It's wonderful for both manila and pendaflex.

I use this drive as a storage site for my workstation, I haven't carried it anywhere other than my office. From what it looks like, it seems pretty robust, so I would assume it could withstand shocks, but that's just my opinion.

I haven't had problems, but bear in mind that I don't use it real often. I know it should not collapse. Hope it helps.

There is no support on top or below. My paperwork has not fallen out the sides. Included with the file are two cross rods (moveable) to give stability to top and bottom. This meets my filing needs. Its portability is another feature I really appreciate. Hope that answers your question.

I haven't noticed stability problems but I do have to move the table further from the wall than I would like. So you have to consider your space requirements.

It moves slightly, more so when empty, but after filling it up I've had no issues. Tons of space and very secure.

It's stable. We load it up with heavy winter costs, and it doesn't tip, but the poles themselves are not solid- they're lightweight.

Yes it is stable, however I would use a small fan to ensure longer life of the device.

I have no problems with it being stable. It doesn't tip(unless all your weight is on one edge). Or bounce/shift under you. And I have balance and depth perception issues! So I think you'll be safe.

It has feet on every panel, and that makes it stable. It's also more stable if you don't keep it completely open/flat, but sort of zigzag it, the way it's shown in the seller's photograph.

I have not had that problem when I use it a table. In my lap, it is stable as anything else.

Won't fall over. Mine are full so very secure. Combined two different sizes to fill up the holder. Expensive but very convenient.

It's extremely stable. It just sits on the desk and your Macbook Air or standard macbook just sits in it. It's heavy enough to not tip at all. No issues whatsoever with that. The silver color matches my Macbook Air perfectly too.

Just tested this--it holds folders fine, but if there are loose papers inside, they won't be supported, and they'll fall inward. If you have a lot of loose papers, I'd recommend something that gives support all along the bottom (like a clear acrylic version).

The unit is very stable. I've never had it tip over. If your previous unit lasted for 8 or 9 years you got your moneys worth. $2.00 a year!

Yes its stable when full to set on ground, otherwise when empty its light weight & could blow over/away.

I've got every shelf (except for the top, most shallow one) filled with a mix of books. It's held up fine, with very little wobble/no tipping at all. This is without the wall attachment, meaning I've just got it just leaning at an angle against my wall.
