are these sturdy enough to hold a heavy full bird feeder with a much lighter item without bending over?

I don't know. We purchased ours when the ground was already frozen, so we'll see very soon!

As I live in Pittsburgh, I've not yet been able to use this; however, it seems very sturdy. It looks like it will only stick into the ground around 8" though, so I would worry more about the whole thing leaning forward or backward before I would worry about the metal actually bending. Hope that helps.

I'm not sure. I have two equally weighted finch feeders on mine. It does stake into the ground nicely.

I have a 5 pound feeder on one hook & a 4 pound feeder on the other hook. I has not bent over. I am not sure if I would use heaver feeders.Enjoy!George

Yes, at least in my experience. I hang a full feeder on one side and a much lighter thistle sock on the other with no problem at all.

Ummmm, a 15 lb. wet hanging basket may be too much for this hanger --- My bird feeder with seed is only 5 or so pounds --- This hanger is a 2 piece and the pieces are hollow (as reflected in the price). Heavy winds or other inclement weather could cause a structural failure with too much weight on the hook.

No they are pretty sturdy. You can always lay a bag or weight on the base of the stand.

These plant trays are fairly flexible and not meant to carry much weight. I would say that they definitely are NOT sturdy enough for the purpose you describe. Good Luck!!

I think so, provided they are balanced fairly well (either mostly upright or not all leaning in one direction.) It's fairly sturdy as others have indicated. Not exactly related, but I find I can balance a pillow with a couple lbs. over the top of it with no sagging or leaning.

No not really... They are metal so they can come down a bit if need be but it is not designed to bend.

I would say yes, they are sturdy enough. I use them as bins for our shoes in our mud room and they've taken quite a beating and have held up nicely.

I have these set up with about 50 lbs on each. I use them for a sewing room so no microwave but I have a lot of stuff in them and they do not bend at all.

I can put a full two cup glass hummingbird feeder on it, but I haven't tried anything heavier.

I use it for a hummingbird feeder. I do not think it would hold much heavier because it is held to the wood with 3 screws (there are 4 holes, but I only got 3 screws)

Rebecca, They are heavy metal. I was afraid they would be flimsy, but they are not. I intend to use them to hand a plant on one side and and hummingbird feeder on the other. I don't anticipate any problems whatsoever. I believe you could hang two plants with no problems. Hope this has helped. Karen

They seem fairly strong enough to hold lighter toys and they really are not flimsy.

There is a weight limit of just a few pounds. If the hanging basket is fake flowers, it would probably be fine. If it is real flowers with dirt and all, it may be too heavy. I have a humming bird feeder, but had to use the smaller version. The large would be heavier than the recommended weight.

I use mine with a very full bird feeder. I estimate it will hold up to 10 pounds.

I find them very sturdy. I think they would probably hold the baking dishes with no problem. I have used them to extend the shelving space on the top shelf of my older kitchen cabinets.

They are pretty sturdy, I've been having mine for a few months now and love it. A tight fit. Now, it's not real thick, and real think, either. but as long as you don't eat with them you will be fine.

They are pretty sturdy. The whole thing weighs about 5.78 oz. I would call them heavy-duty.
