How much weight can the large shelf hold?

I have a couple of bags of unopened cat food on mine (16 pounds total) and the shelf isn't even flinching at the weight.

I am not sure what you are considering placing on these shelves so it is difficult to assess your exact needs...if i knew your weight requirements then I could make a better assessment. I have only used them for shoes...but they are well constructed and sturdy. They feel like they could hold considerable weight without bowing or bending.

They are sturdy but I don't know how much weight you could put on them. I have pictures and knickknacks which aren't that heavy. It is a nice shelf. I like it a lot.

Not much, Maybe 5 lbs. I have only put clothes on the top shelf. You probably want to reinforce the connections with zip ties like other reviewers have mentioned.

There is no way these shelves would support that much weight. It's a clothing system and as such likely designed for about 1/10 those numbers.

This large book shelf holds 20lb max. load and is 10 inches deep. I have hardcover heavy cookbooks and a couple of paperbacks on mine and it works just fine. Make sure you install it properly so it remains sturdy.

Not very much. Maybe about 15 at most. But the shelves tend to wobble a tiny bit, so you can't have too much on each. The bigger shelves at the bottom can hold heavier weight than the top ones.

If you remove the straps the shelf goes beyond 90 degrees and stops. It will hold a load but I am not sure how much weight it will support.

I'm not sure. An entire unit definitely holds 200 lbs. I'm not sure about individual shelves.

I have this cabinet set and I don't think the shelves really have much of a weight limit. I'd say so go for it!

Yes, I have a shelf on my brackets. They will support about 8 pounds or so.

Not sure but the unit weights about I would say no more than 75 lbs per shelf. If you put too much weight on any shelf they will start to bow. I would go with what the paper that came with the unit. The 250 would be total weight . Put the heavier things on the bottom of the rack. I hope this will help you.

I am not sure if the top shelf would handle the weight of it? I know the bottom shelf would be ok but I am not sure on the weight limit on the top shelf.

Mine holds a large assortment of dishes in the spare closet. I'm sure one of the shelves is holding around 50lbs with no issues. It's screwed directly into the studs, where it can be and the others are toggle bolts, I've had no issues. I would not attempt 100 lbs on this shelving unless every single support was screwed into a stud. (and then I'd still be leery)

I think the manufacturer recommends no more than 20 or 25 pounds per shelf. I've had it for a year as a bookshelf with around 30 pounds per shelf and haven't seen any problems.

This is not a problem. I have several hundred pounds per shelf. The sleeve system, used to install the racks locks the shelf in place. The more pressure put on it, the tighter it holds.

I am unsure of the exact limit, but it's not the bracket that has a limit! It can likely hold about 70-80 pounds, the wall construction and the anchoring are more likely to limit your weight. The clamps will keep your shelf secure with a 10" deep unit, but I would likley use three brackets to avoid sagging a 36" shelf.

Manufacturer recommends no more than 25 lbs. per shelf. You will notice bowing if you exceed the recommendation. I have heavy books and kept them to each side on selves and placed decorative items on shelf in middle. Very attractive unit (although a real chore to assemble).
