How much weight can each shelf hold?

The bottom shelf holds up to 44 lbs, the middle 33 lbs and the top 22 lbs. Put the heaviest pots on the bottom for stability.

Can it stay outside in the rain?

Yes. The steel is powder-coated to resist rust, and it is built for balconies, gardens and backyards. Wiping it down now and then helps it last longer.

Will tall plants fit between the shelves?

There are 11 inches between shelves, so compact pots and trailing plants fit well. Tall or bushy plants need the top shelf or a different stand.

Does it need to be mounted to a wall?

No. It stands on its own with adjustable footpads for leveling. Keep the heaviest weight low and it stays steady.

What comes in the box?

One metal plant stand and an instruction sheet. Tools for assembly are not listed, so have a screwdriver handy.

Can it be used for things other than plants?

Yes. The flat shelves work for books, shoes and decorations, which makes it useful as a small entryway or corner organizer.
