    I'd say 25-30 as I can comfortably carry one by myself, and the kitchen unit boxes at work have weights marked on them so I have a yardstick

    Very heavy, especially when you take the strut off and it hits you on the head! Made more painful if the catch hits you

    It's not so much that they are heavy to carry but just awkward!

    anything below 20kg is naff all really and if you find it heavy then you need to work out more than just your wrists .
