Does anyone know how much weight this can hold? I would like a window dressing solution like this, but I am concerned about the weight of the drapes.

I wouldn't hazard a guess to the max weight, but if you adjust this for maximum tension it pushes very hard against the walls and the rubber end pieces are quite sticky. I'd feel confident even with heavy drapes.

It won't hold much weight at all in fact I had a hard time getting the rod to stay up even without the curtains. I would have returned it but I had already gotten rid of the box. Don't waste your money.

John R. Carney, InventorDo not worry about the weight of your drapes. This rod will hold up.

Wish I could help, but so far I've only used these strips...2 at a time...to hang some relatively light-weight, 8x10 framed water colors on my office walls. And that worked wonderfully, but clueless re whether it would hold 8 lbs. Sorry.

That's exactly what it was designed to do. If your curtains have a hanging loop sewn into one end, just slide the horizontal bar through the loop, and set it onto the upright poles. If not, then a package of inexpensive clamps will hold any fabric in place. This is what I use: Cheaplights 6 PCS 3.75" Spring Clamps

Actually YES it can, if the curtain and rod are light enough. I have 3 of these exact hooks holding up a curtain for my patio door. The curtain itself is a very lightweight curtain from IKEA and the rod is a very thin cafe rod. Have had them up for over a year now and they haven't fallen down once.I would not go with anything heavier, though. I tried the same thing with room darkening curtains in the bedroom and they fell down within a day.

We've put four pairs if jeans on it as well as four of my blouses with no problem. We do hang them so the weight is evenly distributed though. We use the thin huggable hangers instead of wooden or plastic ones as they aren't as heavy and fit nicely in the slots. I also put my damp coat on there to dry and drape socks over the rails. No problems. Just remember to distribute the weight evenly! Hope this helps.

They say on the hang it, dang it website that the rod will hold up to 40 lbs. I have a heavy flannel quilt with lots of wool appliqu hanging over my fireplace on a hang it dang it rod. It works great. Love this method of hanging a quilt more than any other, it is easy and the only thing you see is the beautiful quilt.

I don't feel that the tension rod is heavy enough to hold much weight. It is great for valences or sheer curtains. I would definitely go with a more substantial rod for handing coats.

I have a laminated poster that weighs about 2 pounds. The hanger holds it easily. There could be potential for bending the poster where you clip it when you're closing the hanger or putting the poster on the wall, especially if it's a big heavy poster. I'd get another person to help just to be sure.

I am not sure this would work very well. I have had it fall off the window a couple of times, due to the suction cups getting loose. It's not so heavy that it would injure someone I don't think, but it would likely break if it fell from that height, Heather.

I don't know the exact weight... but I was able to lift it with no problem into the window. Sorry I couldn't be more exact.

Not sure. I hung light weight blackout curtains on it. I think a tapestry would look good on it, but I would weight the tapestry and make sure it is not too too heavy.

I am not sure, but I don't believe it can hold too much weight. I think it is more appropriate for clothes... It doesn't seem that resistant.

I don't know weight, but very close to a normal home decor item that is this size. It hangs well and looks very nice.

Kimberly, the cloth comes 9 inches wide folded and unfolds to 36". If you don't mind unfolding to make long 36" wide strips with 3 creases along the length, it might work. Also, it depends on the width of space and what you want to cover (you can definitely see through it so you might wand to gather it on a line/rod like one does with sheer curtains) --- how will you tie each strip together if it's windy? I'm just a guy with no decoration experience. Good luck. Basically, it's sounds like a good idea -- could be pretty -- good luck.

I canno attest to how much weight the item will hold. I use it mostly for hanging clothes I have ironed , as well as hanging clothes out of the dryer. It rolls easing with or without clothes and folds for ease of storage.

I'm not sure how much weigh it can hold but .. I have lots of clothes on it and hasn't bent .. I'm actually thinking about buying another one.

I don't think it's heavy enough. I use it to hang scarves on. Perfect for that.
