Is the lift up top strong enough to have dinner on for 1 or 2 people with proper weight distribution? 1 plate & glass per person

It can support up to 50 lbs. I believe. I've had books, laptops, a cat, and food on it at one time and it was fine.

Yes. I haven't had any issues with it in that respect other than it will go back down if you do not raise it all the way up as far as it will lift.

Yes, we use it in our motorhome in from of the sofa, very nice for the money.

I have had laptop and textbooks on it at the same time. I would imagine that a couple plates and glasses would work quite well.

It's truly not big enough for two people; however, it will accommodate your needs. My husband weighs 220 and it's plenty of room for him, plus you're sitting down, so it shouldn't be an issue.

Not at all...it's very stable! I've had 2 and 3 medium children ( 7-9 year olds) at a time paying on it counterbalancing at various distances from the center along the bar, teens and children, adults...It has never so much as lifted in the center. No tipping whatsoever. And, while it is drilled so you could bolt it down if you choose,I do no thave it bolted...this thing is sturdy.

Also concur with the others; 2 - 3 200- 250lb persons. Have used it at our dining table with 2 men on it weighing about 200 and 250 lbs for 450lbs and never a problem.

No this is a very sturdy table. It is balanced well, it is easy to move and it lifts well. I have clients that are over 300lbs and it has no problem.

I agree. It is very sturdy and I was thinking the same thing 2 or 3 200-250 people should be fine. Doesn't seem to give when my husband and I sit on it to put on shoes etc.

Yes, these plates are very heavy. I hosted Thanksgiving for about 40 people . Most of the adults use chinet platters. The Heavy 10 3/4 are great for people Who wish to have smaller amounts or deserts. They work well foods that need to be cut or even gravies. Hope this is helpful!e

The 300lbs is for the total gym itself so nothing fails during use to avoid injury. Bar doesn't have a ton of room on each side for plates. You can fit a decent amount though.

I'm too lazy to get up and get actual dimensions for you, but we are able to put a dozen or so large dinner plates and an equal amount of smaller plates on the bottom rack. The top rack fits all the cups and glasses. As a family of 4 we run one load a day. ( I wash large pots and pans by hand).

yes, because presumably you are only lifting for a short period of time. also not sure you can get 12 dinner plates in one???

I'm not sure on the weight of the glass but 2 adults can easily lift it, my husband and I lifted it and placed it on the pedestal. It is not too brittle for use, we us it as our breakfast room table.

I don't know the weight but two people can easily lift. The glass looks heavy, is beautifully beveled. Have had mine for at least six months and am very happy with it. It would be difficult to break it, I think.

You can fit 3 dinner size plates on it. It's actually quite nice for the price and very solid.

I have used this table for serving dinners to 12 people. I have also used it for buffet dinners which would mean heavy serving dishes with food as well as plates and silver. It has been used as a display table at shows. It is a very strong table, but I don't know the weight capacity.

It's thick, but flat enough so glasses can be on. But if you want to put a dinner plate and 2 glasses, maybe not enough room. http://ameblo.jp/coco-gin/image-11670098177-12741258762.html

I think it would be OK. I have a stack of large corelle dinner plates, small dessert plates, and two stacks of small dessert bowls and it has held up for years. I was nervous about this much weight as the legs didn't seem perfectly level but there has been no moving or shifting - I think the weight helps it not move much though. Hope that helps. Enjoy the holiday season!

It will hold a lot! We put in 16 pounds plus maybe a bucket and that was designed to go up and around the 2 one gallon glass containers about 2 inches. Then provide a nice bed for the platters to rest on. The party was 3 hours long and we set up 30 mins ahead and we didn't have a lot of melting either. (Inside party)
