Is it possible at some point to have problems if I set attribute weight to be visible for Configurable products as well? I want to set the weight for a configurable product in order to display it on product listing and I don't want to add a new attribute. I am asking to be sure that shipping rate will not be influenced by this setting.

You can specify weight for each on simple products which is a part of configurable product. So make sure that those two values match and you should be fine.

so..if it is the same weight for configurable as for simple products associated, everything should be fine. Thanks– DenisaCommented Jul 16, 2014 at 15:43

Yes, you can specify the weight for each simple product to account for the weight difference. E.g. size 6 and size 12 shoes of the same model can be different in weight. And in large quantities this can have significant impact on shipping price.– Alex ZCommented Jul 16, 2014 at 15:50
