We ordered and received 3 of these from Amazon without a problem. They were packed on Styrofoam and perhaps bubble wrap. They are stoneware, so breakable. Pack well inside and out and place in strong carton and they should ship okay. Hope this helps...

These covered bakers are not very fragile but I would definitely use bubble wrapping to ship and I would also wrap each piece separately.

I am not sure if you can pack them for freight but they seem to me pretty sturdy. I've used in the oven and the sink and handled them not always so carefully, but they did not break or chip...

I don't think they're heavy at all. But brand new, they can be a little rigid. Stuff socks in the bottom and then the top portion will lay flat. I'd say super easy to pack and I travel a lot.

Well... they are pretty sturdy but..... also a little fragile. I bought them for my 3 yo girl who played appropriately with them and my 2 year old son slowly crushed and broke off pieces over time.

I wouldn't call them fragile, but I wouldn't be tossing them around. I recently broke my phone so I'm probably overly cautious about breaking something else. I got a protective case for mine for about $10 on Amazon.

I'm using them as a support for a shelf over my fire place and not putting anything more than knick knacks on it. I wouldn't put anything heavier than that and a few books. Call it 20 pound load at most.

If the box just looks like it was crushed it's probably ok because they should be in plastic, if that's torn I'd send back. We put ours in a ziplock bag. Hope this helps.

I wouldn't ship them if you aren't with them to make sure it doesn't collapse on them. Very easy to collapse or fall over. This is only to be worn so you can fix or adjust

I am not sure but they are so strong that it is a problem putting too much weight in them and then you can't pick them up. I have packed several boxes with about 150 pounds or more and they are secure. I have learned my lesson though and will pack lighter things in them in the future so I can move them. If someone else is moving them I think they are really strong and can hold up well. Hope that helps!

We always ship these by freight strapped to a pallet which is much safer than shipping them by ground.Thanks

I can see them being fragile if you just drop them after a set, but if you use proper form and place them down somewhat gently, they are fine. There is also a one-year (I think) warranty. I can't comment on the injuries. I haven't experienced any but I am not an expert in that area.

Yes they would definitely handle the trip. They are pretty heavy duty. But for long term use, I have found that they do not last for more than one to two years usage for seasonal storage.

They weigh approximately 4 lbs but are very flexible. I just folded one of them into thirds. However, I feel you could pack items hard items or items that need to be protected from breakage (ie shampoo,make-up,hair brush) into the foot part of the boot as the sole is relatively solid or fill the entire boot with miscellaneous clothing items. The boot is not rigid which would make it easy to shove into tight luggage space. Have a great trip. I would recommend wearing light weight boot socks...you're feet may sweat with long periods of wear.

Yes, they are, but the lighter weight (I think they are 3-ply) are actually better, more pliable. Both are great though. You end up using them for so many things.

Sure it could break... I would wrap it/them in bubble wrap & they should be fine.

Hi Mary: I would not recommend shipping fragile items in this bag. What you can do is reuse a box and place the fragile items in the box and then put the box in the bag, other than that I would highly caution against.... Or at minimum purchase insurance. HTH

Yes, if they are lightly packed with clothing. They are some type of covered cardboard so heavy loads might eventually squish down. These are very nice looking and seem to work well for their intended use.

Durable enough? Probably. I would put them in some kind of sack to keep them a bit safe. what you see in the pic is how they fold up.
