I cannot give you a finite number, but I am approximately 200 lbs and no problem. I am a retired engineer and I would say this is a very strong cane and well made. I believe it would be nearly impossible to damage it if you could put your entire weight on it (unless that person weighs 300+).

The manufacturer's website shows up to 250 lbs for the small and 300 lbs for the larger version. Hope this helps.

The product specs say the cane weighs 2 lbs. It actually feels a bit lighter. The hand grip is well padded with a soft material that makes it more comfortable than the usual hard plastic. I have two of this model and one, much heavier, large base model.

Not to be used like a crutch to bear the full weight of a person. The cane offers some support to take some load off one side of the body when walking. You use a cane to take some of your weight but you never bear down fully on it.

Well, my dad weighs a solid 250lbs and it supports him just fine. The chair is really very sturdy. I hope this helps.

The cane itself weighs less than 2.0 pounds. The distance between the four feet measures 8.5 inches X 6.5 inches. I hope this helps answer your question.Scott, Dream Products

We got the cane for my mother in-law, I am not sure of the exact weight, but it was not heavy to carry around.

In answer to your question - when I put the cane on my digital bathroom scale the weight did not register. So, I weighed myself with and without the cane a couple of times and subtracted the difference. The cane seems to weigh between 2.2 to 2.4 pounds - a little over two pounds. I hope that helps.

Certainly less than 5 lbs. I'd say even less than 2 lbs as it is aluminum with a plastic seat. It's almost no heavier than a regular cane.

The cane weighs about a pound. I must tell you that recently my husband was leaning up against it and the light part broke off.He was putting his whole body weigh on it. Guess I will be buying another one soon. He really likes it and uses it every day.

I've seen maximum weight recommendation for this model (in various prints) as being 250 lbs, but I'm aware of a lady whose weight is around 300 lbs and who uses this cane without any problems. The cane easily adjusts for height in the same way one adjusts the legs of a walker. Instructions for determining the proper height and adjusting the cane accordingly are included.

I'm sorry I can't answer the question. My husband was unable to use the cane. He has right side paralysis and opening the cane was too difficult with one hand.

I just weighed my Hugo cane, the one with the compact quad foot that I recently purchased, and found that it weighed 21 1/2 ozs. That is twenty one and a half onces. This seems not very heavy to me. I am of normal build for an 80 year old female.My other regular cane, without quad foot, weighs 11 ozs., but I like the convenience of being able to stand my new cane almost anywhere, except, of course on uneven carpet.Another of my canes, with the spread out metal feet, weighs 38 onces. This seem a little heavy to me when compared to my regular cane, and it's a little awkard to use. I tend to trip over the extended feet when I have them facing inwards.

the width of the tubing (first section by the handle ) is 3/4" tapering down to 5/8" at the bottom tip.i would not know the weight limit but would assume 250 to 300lbs.i am at 180 lbs.and the cane feels very sturdy in spite of being a folding cane.very happy with it.

I didn't try to break it so I don't know for sure. It's made of polyurethane, same as they use for tool handles, so it's pretty sturdy. However, I could see where a larger person might feel queasy about leaning heavily on it while using it as a cane. Too thin for that! It's perfect for a person my size, but a big guy might have problems---too short for him anyhow.

about 1-1/2 lbs. I use the wider head when I am doing a lot of walking on sidewalks and paths, where it isn't too crowded, but if I go to themall, I take the wider part off and use just the part that is attached to the bottom of the cane. Worthwhile product.

I don't know what the weight limit is, but although I have since lost, I was at my high of 295 pounds when I was using it. I have 2 canes and both are adjustable and very sturdy & supportive. Hope this helps.

Yes, and I'm certain it says that in the little 'blurb' given by Amazon. This has been a great cane for the price. While I only needed it for a short while, I passed it on to a friend who has a more longterm issue. She is happy. Also, the weight bearing on this cane is 300 lbs. Not all canes can claim that fact.
