Are the steel beams solid? I currently have steel beams and they are hollow and bent at the 3 support legs?

The steel beams are solid. I have my frame under a King bed and have had no problems. Frank

They are angle iron, but I don't see these bending. They are held upright by the center section and can't twist. When angle iron bends it's usually because the piece is twisted and takes the load in the wrong direction. They are also stiff enough not to bend. I'm very happy with mine.

Solid and heavy. It practically took two of us to carry the box of the supports to the room where the bed is. Read the directions as they are a bit tricky. The supports hold up the foundation ( 2 pieces), mattress and pillows, plus guests who use the bed.

I would buy these rails again for the price. Someone mentioned that they would bend. I notice an eighth of an inch of give, but that's truck frame flex, not bracket bend on my Ram. Chassiss rails aren't as heavy as they once were.

Well, they are little stick birdy legs. I imagine with enough pressure they would bend, but I've never had a problem with indoor use. For the money, I think it's decently made.

They are solid, they feel like they could be solid wood. It is almost an inch thick and does not have any give or flex. :) I hope this answer was helpful.

No, they are pretty solid, they are probably about as easy to bend as exhaust pipe is.

If by "solid" you mean that it is heavy, it is not. The base is hollow, but has not been a problem for my mother, for whom I bought it.

It is hollow, there is no "bottom" either, so you could stack them. But I wouldn't recommend them bc last night one of them broke! We're not large people and our frame broke through the plastic. We have had them a couple of years but only used them for about a year.

They are hollow. I think if they were solid they would be to heavy for a small child to play with they are pretty big.

Yes they are solid and heavy, but have a carry handle built in. u need 4 for 1 umbrella base.

yes, these are bent. I like them very much! so much better than plastic types!

Yes. The bar is hollow based on the weight but very sturdy. Welds are solid.

I do not think that would work.They are not hollow that I can tell but the size would also not work because the length of the legs they are not very expensive so if you want to give it a try I would go for it. They are sturdy but the hard plastic would probably split

Mine are solid. Make sure you have them tight. I use the Tiki stakes in the ground and they have a thumb screw to keep the poles from being wobbly. Hope that helps.

It's hollow, they're pretty much always hollow. It is a thick-gauge steel though, so no worries, it should handle a reasonable weight...

They are solid. They are one-piece handles, flatter and much heavier than the two-piece hollow handles. (Unfortunately, because of their extra weight, I find them easier to drop. I prefer the hollow handles on my original set, vintage 1986. Oh well...)

They are hollow but very strong. I like that they are all one piece of metal...nothing to break off.
