Although small, it holds a lot of things. Unfortunately, the manufacturing company does not provide any information on how much weight it can hold. At first, I had a bit of difficulty figuring out how it turns, but with use, you learn how it turns and there is no problem. Empty weight is 4 kg (you don't notice it). I believe it is worth the money. A small negative is the plastic washers, which are visible in the photo, that wore out from the first use... It's a minor issue; I will replace them immediately with metal ones. The other metal parts are just fine. I will return after more use. 3/11/2024 At the point where the washers wore out, I unscrewed it and rubbed it because it had debris, which is why they wore out.
