Do you think this Coaster chair side table will support a 10 gal fish tank, approx . 80 lbs?

Not advisable as the center of gravity will imperil stability and danger of tipping with only a minor bump or jostle.

After talking with my Husband, he agrees with the other responses. No is probably a better response for the reasons the others have listed. Sorry to have misinformed you initially.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd give the overall unit an 8 for sturdiness. HOWEVER, having grown up with a father who has a fondness for fish, I'd worry more about the height/depth of the unit. I don't have a fish tank handy, but in my mind, a 12G tank is deeper than the unit is. Also, the total height with the fish tank might be too much without bolting the unit to the wall. Lastly, the support for the top of the unit is all on the right and left edges. There is a middle plank, but that acts more like a partition for the top two shelves rather than a central support beam. If you have a tank with a evenly dispersed base, it might work...but I think it's still a 50/50 endeavor either way. Hope this helps.

This is a very good quality piece. We have a TV on it, but I think I could sit on it easily, without bending the wood, & I'm about 130lbs. I'm not 36" wide, so I think your terrarium would be ok. Just my opinion.........

I personally think it would be just fine. The top is flat, not solid, but quite sturdy. It would only be 2 1/2 inches on either side to hang off. I think you will enjoy the stand! We love it.. It's perfect for our aquarium! Hope this helps! Happy shopping!Jenn

Yes it will- It holds our 30 gallon fish tank with about a foot of space to spare. I will note that we have the coffee table as well- our coffee table, since we move it a lot for vacuuming and for more space, does wiggle a bit- however, if we used gorilla glue in the screw holes when we put it together, it would not wiggle so much. The sofa console table has never been moved, and is very sturdy under the weight of the large tank, let alone the other items on the lower shelves. I hope that helps!

I'm sure the desk itself can hold a 40 pound fish tank but you cannot put too much stuff in the drawers as they tend to sag and then break.

It is very sturdy, but what size fish tank are you talking about? Will you stack 2 shelves or use just one? I guess it could hold about 100# or so. Hope it works out.

yes, its very sturdy. I have a 29 gallon aquarium which is about three times the weight of your two 5 gallon aquariums. The top is 2" thick hardwood lumber. It should be more than sturdy enough for your use.

I think the basket would hold the weight if it is a smaller tank. basket is very sturdy. One of my best purchases to help my mother.

I think this supports quite a lot of weight. I believe that it tells you that in the description. It does come with a shelf at the bottom, too. The bottom shelf would not hold as much as the top. However, as the other reviewers have stated, it is a solid stainless steel table and would hold quite a lot of weight!

I have a good sized table lamp on mine. It's just an educated guess, but I'd say you're safe with 5-10 lbs. it could probably support more, but I wouldn't push the limits of the glass.

I bought it for my 10 year old granddaughter so I didn't worry about weight, but I would guess it would support someone up to 150 lbs.

My tank is acrylic making it much lighter than glass but having said I have 60 lbs sand , 50 lbs live rock and loads of fake corals and it seems as if it could support even more. It is steel and pretty well put together so I think it will be fine for 65 gal tank.

This will hold the 20 gal on top. But the lower shelf will only hold critter keeper size enclosures. I was disappointed as I have several 20 and 10 gal tanks. Fortunately , I have critter keepers too , so the shelf came of use. I am still looking for units that will hold my other tanks w/ lighting fixtures above. I have reptiles and amphibians , not fish .

Assuming you're talking about the larger stand, I would say it shouldn't be a problem. I had a 10gal tank for the smaller stand. Since the stand is heavy wrought iron, I was never concerned about it tipping over. I put plexiglass in the shelves, but that was more for aesthetics. It is quite sturdy. I you match the tank with the appropriate stand, you should have no worries.

I don't think so, unless the 10 gallon tank is not very tall. I had a 10.5" tall 3 gallon tank in the middle and it was a tight squeeze . Either way the shelf probably won't hold that much weight ( I moved mine else where because the stand kept making really strange creaking noises all the time )

Not sure what the official limit is, but I'd bet it would support the tank just fine. It's quite sturdy.
