How many pounds per shelf can this hold?

I'm not sure how many pounds per shelf, but my bookcase is loaded with books, some of them very heavy and the shelves are not wavering. Good luck. Faun

Mine has been full of hardback books with no issues yet. Of course, bigger books have been placed on the more stable bottom and third shelves, but no other allowances for weight issues.

Each shelf holds a certain number of pounds. 75lbs weight is the absolutely maximum it will allow. I cant be sure about each shelf because I sold the thing. I was really unhappy with it on how cheap it was for the price

I'm not sure on how much weight this shelf can hold,but I have 4 2lt.bottles of pepsi and 6 lrg.cans of dog food and a lrg.box of dog biscuits on the lower shelf.The top shelf is holding a vase and some other nicknacks ,all breakable,but I'm not worried this is a sturdy shelf.Sorry I can't be of more help,but I think at least 50 lbs. maybe more.

I use mine for kitchen appliance storage and have had no issues, I'd say they are good for 100 or so pounds per shelf. Hope this helps, it really is a very good and strong shelving unit for the $$$.

The unit is well built. The description would lead you to believe it can handle 200 lbs for 2 of the shelves and 65 lbs for the third. I don't think I would trust the wheels and structure to support 465 lbs total. I would be leery exceeding 250 lbs total. If nothing else, it may become top-heavy and be unstable.

I am unsure of the exact limit, but it's not the bracket that has a limit! It can likely hold about 70-80 pounds, the wall construction and the anchoring are more likely to limit your weight. The clamps will keep your shelf secure with a 10" deep unit, but I would likley use three brackets to avoid sagging a 36" shelf.

The shelves are very sturdy , I feel they would hold a set of encyclopedias...I do not know the weight limit on them

I would guess about 15-20 lbs. I use mine for dvd's and VHS tapes and each shelf is loaded. My only issue was because I used it for that it didn't hold as many as I hoped.

The lower two shelves could hold that. I wouldn't put more than 50lbs or so on these though, unless you anchor it to the wall somehow.

Hi Zach, The single shelf has a 17lbs max, double has like 25lbs, and triple has like 40lbs. I have a few singles and 1 triple. I personally would only put about 15-20lbs on the single (if you screw into a wall stud).

I think you could easily get away with 10lbs. on each shelf. The construction is quite solid.

I'm not sure. An entire unit definitely holds 200 lbs. I'm not sure about individual shelves.

I have shoes on these shelves. I guess it would depend on how you have the unit attached, to walls or free standing units . Im sure they could hold more than 50 lbs easily.

All the lower (very bottom) shelves can hold about 50 pounds. the very top shelves can hold about 25 pounds and the middle shelves (the more sturdier part of the shelves) can hold about 40 pounds..hope this helps!

They're pretty sturdy shelves, as is the entire unit. The weight limit per shelf, from top shelf to bottom is: 25 lbs, 25 lbs, 35 lbs, 25 lbs, and 40 lbs.

800 lbs per shelf is the spec, although I definitely have more than that on a few shelves, and it's not been a problem. Some of the other products from Alera are spec'ed to 1000+ lbs.

Hmmm... 50lbs of weight on one shelf... that may be pushing it? I'd say about 25-30lbs max on each shelf.... Sorry!
