What are the weight capacities of rattan outdoor trash cans?
Rattan outdoor trash cans typically support weights between 15-30 kilograms (33-66 pounds), depending on their construction quality and design specifications. Higher-end models with reinforced steel frames and double-layer weaving can withstand up to 50kg, while standard units average 20kg capacity. The weight tolerance is influenced by factors including rattan thickness, base material (plastic/metal), and structural design. Most manufacturers recommend not exceeding 80% of stated capacity to ensure longevity. Weather conditions also affect performance - wet conditions may reduce load capacity by approximately 15%. For optimal use, distribute weight evenly and avoid sharp pressure points. Regular maintenance including cleaning and UV protection helps maintain original weight-bearing capabilities over time.
