Is the handle sturdy enough to lift the weight of the water? it seems to be weakly attached.

The handle has never given us any problems and handles the weight just fine. We have owned two of them for years.

I have used this bucket full of water without any issue, so this handle is sturdy enough to support even more the weght of the bucket full of water.

We filled it with warm water over halfway full & it was quite sturdy. Maybe yours is defective & should be exchanged.

It seems pretty lightweight to me, almost more like a pool toy. It probably wouldn't sink but might get you wet.

It had a firm snap holding the head in place but lifting from the handle has never been a problem for me. I have had heads that were so loose the would fall.

Yes the handles will hold weight unless you are planning on poaching a whale.It is a very good poacher for the price.

Yes, by it's front handle, it's plenty strong enough. I use mine to hang painless dent repair tools which are much heavier.

I didn't have any issues with the handle. Mine was the foot petal on the bucket that broke 2 times. Not well made.

No, this is really not at all flimsy. I do find the way it's constructed to be a bit difficult. If you have a couple of feet of cord stuck out so can plug it in, that couple of feet tends to get tangled when you're reeling in the rest. I don't know how else you'd construct one, however. I often tend to just wind it hand over hand rather than use the crank.

It should work but...it is a little flimsy for something heavy like water. You would want to wrap the handle, which is very thin, to make it easier to carry.

I have double on each side and am able to lift mine with no problem. But I am not sure about having one handle.

the handle on the bow is pretty strong. As for 500 pounds in the water it might work, my husband and I drag it arround with about 100 pounds and it has not broken yet. Hope this helps!

Yes. I own 2 and bought 1 for myself dauhgter. Never had a problem with the handles. But I would support the bottom when carrying the container. Full it weighs about 35 pounds

Not so far. It has a firm yet flexible handle. I am very pleased with it. I keep it connected to my laptop and so far no issues with it.

Recently bought one and the paddles now have some black foam wrapped around the handle just below where the two pieces join. I haven't actually tested it but I would think that it floats fine now. As an added bonus it's a nice soft grip on the paddle too.

It is very sturdy, I have a foward assist handle on mine and it works great.

Yes, it will float but I suggest you get some bright water proof tape to wrap around the handle because when it is the water it will be partially submerged and hard to see. I highly recommend this sup. I have enjoyed it so much this past summer have not been disappointed, a great board.....

No, it doesn't, which is good. The handle is the part of the unit that takes the most pressure in operation and therefore needs to be very securely attached. It may be possible to disassemble it from the body, but it'd be an effort I don't think would be worth doing either way.
