If my round pot measures 10 inches across what size plant dolly do I need? My pot weighs almost 200 lbs, will this dolly work for me?

The dolly will hold pots up to 12" in diameter so size would not be a problem. According to the description, it wil hold up to 200 lbs, so you are at or near the limit of what the dolly can carry.

I've only got approx. 100 lbs on mine. Works fine at that. Not sure, but the manufacturer does rate at 200. If it doesn't work, send it back for a refund.

Yes, it can handle a 10" pot with ease. Even larger sizes I found aren't a problem. In my yard these easily support standard 12-16" pots - some are plastic, some are heavier terra cotta, but I don't think they weigh 200 lbs.

It will fit but 200 pounds is too much for this one. You need a heavier duty dolly.

I'm sorry I can't answer you truthfully. I have use the pot for canning and soups. I needed a good heavy pot and this one ended up back at Amazon and I got a better one at Bed Bath and Beyond. Same kind of pot different mfg. and heavier. The one I received from \Amazon was out of round so the two pieces did not fit good.

Hi Melanie,I am not sure, but I have a very heavy planter on it. The diameter of the top of the planter would be about 20 inches, and the pot is about 20 inches high. It is filled with dirt and in addition regularly takes water. And then there is the plant itself, which is known as a snake plant, with thick pulpy shoots. I have no idea how heavy this planter is but let's just say I used my son's skateboard to move it across the house. I'm guessing about 50 lbs. So far, the pedestal has not complained.

That is a mistake. My pot measures about 8 inches high, 8.5 inches at the opening, and 28 inches at the widest circumference. Including the rope it comes with it hangs about 50 inches.

10" is for the big one. The smaller one is ~6" which I tried my smaller pot but it won't work for the burner. Anything between won't work either. I think it's my pots/pans size. It have to be 10" diameter. Mine weren't and I don't have reason to buy more pot/pan that size because I have too many sizes but 10". Luckily, the product come with 10" pot. That works for me !!

I don't know, We have a ceramic pot 21" tall, 18"x18" at the top that tapers to a 10" circle at the bottom filled with soil and a seeding tree on the caddy. The caddy supports the weight and it rolls around on concrete, but the caddy is obviously overloaded and sags noticibly. I'm not sure how long it will last, and we may have to replace it with a sturdier one.

this will accommodate a 10" diameter 2 Handled pot... from lip to lip it is 10" ... nothing is really to small... just a bit awkward to hold the big strainer over a tiny pan... The drain holes are 1/2 cm apart & just 1/4 cm from the edge of the rim as well as being 1/4cm in diameter... so unless you are straining something very tiny it should work well... ... I am unconditionally pleased with it.

i buy hanging baskets and remove the hooks. Should fit a round pot thats about 8-9" diameter and about 7" in height.

Hi Lori... If you're planning to be moving your 200 lb plant around a lot, I would consider changing out the casters for those meant for hard floors... namely, rubber clad or felt clad casters. Google "hard floor casters" for choices, and match the caster stem size (width/length). Occasional rolling should not be a problem. Hope this is helpful...

I use a 10 gallon pot, usually filled with about 7.5 gallons and its solid. I don't see any reason why it won't support cup to 100 lbs.

Hello Christine, I apologize for your inconvenience. the pot should be a standard clay pot with a lip as shown in the image with the hand. Other flower pots can be used , but it's important to have a lip that will slide into the Pot Klip. I'll go to your original amazon order and send a photo of the types of pots that are ideal. I hope this helps. Have a great weekend.

Hello! I have not placed a tripod on it, but I do have a heavy ceramic planter filled with various succulent plants. It's very cold here in winter so I had to find something on which to place the pot inside the house. The trolley is great - I can easily move it around to capture the sun for the plants. It moves easily from kitchen flooring to short pile rug in another room. I'm sure it would move even better with less weight. Hope this helps you!

i think 2" pots will be perfect. you may need to add a bit more soil in some of them.

You need to measure the diameter of the bottom of the pot. From one side to the other, not the circumference

I think you want the diameter of the pots (both large and small). The lid is larger as it locks onto the flanges around the outside of the pots. That said, the INTERIOR diameter of the pot is 9 3/4 inches. For comparison, the steamer basket that comes with the set is 8 3/4 inches in diameter. That leaves a 1/2 inch gap around between the pot and the steamer. When it sits on the wire tripod, also included, the top of the steamer sits about an inch blow the rim of the pot. I would guess that those are the minimum space allowances designed by the manufacturer. When you mention plates, I hope you are talking about material which is suitable to be put under pressure. I wouldn't attempt to use even Pyrex in this thing without checking first. You can do a lot of damage with this tool if it's misused. Be careful.

I've used mine with all sizes of pots. I love it! I've just about given up using my other strainers. I wouldn't say there is really a minimum. I think it would work just fine with an 8 or 9 inch pot. It is definitely designed for two handled pots but can be used with standard saucepans as well as long as you pour slowly (since in that case you can only hold it down with one hand). It measures about 10 inches between handle grips so I would assume the picture is using a 10 inch pot.

I think it will work. I had a heavy ceramic flower pot on mine and it worked fine.
