How much weight will it hold if used as seating around a diningroom table and is it tall enough for that purpose?

I used it to sit on sometimes. I don't think it is high enough to use around a table though.

I would say around 250lbs. It is an ottoman and sits lower than most table chairs.

Hi Beverly,I use my bench in the entrance hallway. It is very sturdy, and there is plenty of storage room inside. I do think it's a bit too low to be used as seating at a table. You could make it work by adding a pillow(s).Hope this helps.Sharon

I'm not sure I'd risk something that heavy, unless you're talking a small goldfish bowl. The table is built solid enough it could probably hold the weight, but since it's tall and skinny, it's not real stable and tends to tip, especially on carpet.

This is not a heavy piece of furniture. I'm using it in a spare bedroom and have a small lamp on it, and it works fine for that. If it was in a bedroom that I used frequently, or in a heavy-traffic area of the room, I would want something more substantial. On the positive side, it is a nice looking table and is sufficient to hold items that are not too heavy, and the price is right.

Hi Lei, Honestly, I think even the larger trunk would be a little too small and low to work well as a coffee table (it would be cute, though, if you didn't mind that), and stacked up they'd definitely be too tall. But as far as weight-bearing, I don't think that would be a problem - my small one is full of stuff and sits on top of the large one which is fine, no buckling or bowing. Good luck!

It probably wouldn't work particularly well as a dining table, because there are hinges on each side and the table might buckle somewhat under pressure. You really can't sit on it, for instance. Still, it could work if you were careful. You could put a piece of plywood underneath to give more support.

Hey Patricia. I use these ottomans precisely for that: giving someone a place to sit while they put their shoes on. To that end, they're certainly capable of supporting those up to 200 lbs (I can't speak to anything beyond that), but they're probably not tall enough for most dining room tables. Hope that helps.

Yes. This table is sturdy and can definitely hold 60 - 80 lbs. As noted in the reviews mine too came with a few small dings in it ... I am using it as a shop table so I was not as concerned.

The chair sits flat and doesn't wobble while sitting on it, but the fabric might not be supportive by itself to be acting as a table. If you put a small tray on it, it would work perfectly.

I would not trust it for weight. I have a table you can get at staples, or BJs or Costco that's longer and much sturdier. This table looks great and has nice surface but it wiggles on a bare floor which is disappointing. Fine on rugs. Good for doing puzzles and games, and does look nice but I would not put a lot of weight on it.

It's sturdy enough. I also use it when I'm putting my shoes on. It's about 1/2 - 1 inch lower than a regular dining chair. Hope that helps.

Yes, I think you could use it for dining as long (as the arms are lower than height of table). We use it for lounging around our fire pit. It's very basic, light weight. Kinda on the smaller side.

I am not sure of the weight the table will hold. I use this as a prop for my drama students. It is fairly light however - including the frame.

I got this as a gift for my son. He weighs 320 and uses this as his dining table with no problem

I would not advise you to put that much weight on this table. It is very wobbly and could easily tip with the slightest bump. It is really just a pretty little table for maybe a nicknack. I was disappointed on the quality. Tried to use it as a nightstand and found it too wobbly.

It has a 1/2" wooden core (plywood) - so that will rot over time. You can probably use it for up to about 35 lbs but much over that and I'm afraid it may not hold the weight. It is a lovely piece and very functional.

I use this table for displaying at craft fairs. It is easy to carry and set up. I guess you can put anything on it keeping in mind it is plastic....I'm not sure how to answer your question. I would imagine it would be fine for brief periods of time. It's a portable table not living room furniture.

I don't know what kind of use you intend for the table. I am not currently using my for medical and have it piled high with magazines and stuff and it is carrying the weight just fine.
