Someone asked about it standing inside. The answer was "Yes" it can freestand. How sturdy is it when it is standing inside?

Audrey,I've used mine inside without any problems. It does free-stand. If I were to use it outside, I would probably add a small brace from the foot to the vertical part of the stand on each end, but if used properly it is just fine right out of the box. ThanksRon N

It is very sturdy. I actually used it freestanding outside a couple of times. Inside you should have no problems.

It will be fairly sturdy just note that it will not sit up against a wall because the feet are at least 9 inches on either side probably more.

Don't believe it is designed to be free standing. Have always had mine mounted to the wall for stability.

It's very sturdy. So I assume that it could. I have slightly heavy items on mine, and it hs held up very well so far!

Yes, very sturdy (make sure to build right). Agree it can handle the weight as long as you keep the heavier items closer to the drawers. Have had it for about 5 months and very happy with it.

It could definitely be free-standing. There are long stakes to drive into the ground (or concrete)

It can. Just don't put that shelf on when putting together the unit. Shouldn't hurt the stability of the unit.

yes, it is very sturdy. I use it as an extra pantry, and each shelf can hold several cans.

yes , seems very sturdy. and you could use it inside . i would apply more non slip pads on bottom if you have slick [slippery ] floors inside.

yes, it is pretty sturdy. You may have to balance it a bit on the other side, but I have had no problems. This is a great item. I love it.

It would be sturdy enough, but I am not sure it would be big enough. I guess it depends on how you arrange things on it.

Hmm...it seems pretty sturdy. I put a good deal of pressure on mine taking the legs off a couple of times. I don't know if you could do that without damaging whatever is inside, though.

Nope - this is pretty sturdy. I use it as a platform for paperwork next to the standup desk i bought that holds 2 mojitos & a keyboard.

I wouldn't call it free standing. I have it leaned up against my backsplash in a corner and it kept from falling over by my big kitchen-aid mixer.

It is not sturdy enough to stand on. It is plastic and very flexible. The warmer the weather the more flexible it gets. It is good fo storage and stacking maybe two more on top.

Yes it is sturdy enough. I have used it several times. I am very pleased with it.

Mine is pretty sturdy but I haven't tried using it while standing up. It does work well if you sit on a chair (something with grip for your bum) and use it for the extra height and 'bicycle-like' posture

I would say 'yes', definitely sturdy enough. It's really a nice addition to any location. I'm using mine for a tv stand in my bedroom. The open shelf holds my DVD player while the drawer holds the manuals & remotes. I could easily use it in any other location. It's sleek & attractive as well as functional.
