@Functionalweeb_66466 Hi, we've had two in normal day-to-day use for a few months and they are best described as light-weight but sturdy. That doesn't answer your question I know - I weigh 85kg and have sat on one no trouble. BUT they are not stools and I am sure that an eccentric weight will cause the bottom leg joint to fail. I would not use them as stools or stand on one.
They are fine for normal table use - jugs of water piles of magazines and so forth are no problem and do not wobble at all. The joints have no play, but glue is necessary.
I am not sure if that answers your question - please let me know.
@Functionalweeb_66466 I'd be happy that it would hold a TV - Let me know what combination of parts you need and what sizes and I'll happily modify them for you. If you haven't seem my Bookshelf module check out the link - one of mine is a metre wide with two "bays" - they might be an alternative for a TV unit. You'd only need two shelves of course not three as per the one in the picture (which is about 600 wide from memory.
@PeterH Might even go further and turn it into a whole entertainment center! I like the bookshelf design with the two bays. The second bay could be used for Movies/books/whatever equipment. Probably need to make 2 or 3 and line them up. Is there a way to connect or join multiple builds?
@Functionalweeb_66466 For the bookshelves you just need longer planks. Sorry about the rough photo - I will need to modify the dimension of the cross-piece to suit the width of your board - or I can set one up as a parametric drawing in Onshape if you want to fiddle. Because I've put a brace in each direction on each module, they are very stable. About 250 grams of filament per module. Let me know if you need any more info.
What can a standard end table hold for weight?

@PeterH That definitely helps. I wasn't planning to use it as a stool, but I was thinking about modifying it or building 2 to turn into a TV stand.
