Rubberbanditz- Extra Large Fitness Sand Bag for Workout | Heavy Duty Sand Bags Weights for Crossfit, at Home Workouts, Cross-Training, Conditioning and Exercise

Like everyone else I started getting into the idea of sandbag training due to COVID-19. I’ve been experimenting and have bought a few different bags from different sellers to develop a small sandbag style gym.I bought this bag because first and foremost it was very affordable compared to other options and rated decently well. I received it and to begin I liked the “leather”-esque feel of the bag. It feels good and tight as do the filler bags. I also liked the filler bags because there are six of them (roughly 8 lbs filled each) which also had a fill-line which was helpful. It allows more versatility with training to use multiple smaller bags. Once you fill the training bag with all the filler bags which fit snug, it makes the training bag very nice to workout with because it is stiff and there isn’t a lot of give.Do not go slamming this bag around with a hardcore workout, I doubt it would hold up, and also I would not leave it in direct sunlight outside.Overall I recommend this bag as a more affordable yet not as durable option for training.

I really like this bag. The handles are so comfortable and the bag is a perfect size for a woman. I know that many people stated it's not 50# because the sand is left in the bag they have purchased, but when I have all the bags in and weigh the whole bag it's come out to 49#. With the bag, it's the right weight. I also love the versatility of the bag, I can do my whole workout with just one piece of equipment. The middle handle's plastic insert broke, which is not a huge deal, but I called the customer service to see what can be done. The owner of the company called me the next day and offered to replace the bag free of charge. He was extremely nice on the phone and I received the replacement the same week. I can see myself using the bags for years to come and would recommend it as well as the company.

First off, I was excited to get this because I haven't been able to workout cause these gym closures (due to COVID). The price of free weights has drastically gone up so I chose this as an alternative. The bag seems to be good quality but we will see how long this item lasts. The filler bags have double velcro seal to keep the sand in the bag and then the main bag. There are 7 filler bags included each labeled as 8lbs. The main bag has 7 handles at various positions so you can change your grip/workout. I purchased Quickrete Play Sand 50lbs to fill the bags. I purchased this sandbag because I chose the 50lb Rubber Banditz bag. I was excited and nervous cause 7 filler bags × 8 lbs = 56 lbs . So I thought the bag was going to weigh more than advertised (which would be awesome) and I instantly thought I didn't purchase enough sand. However that is not the case. I followed directions and filled the bags to the designated "max fill" line however they were not weighing the engraved 8 lbs. Not to mention filling the filler bags beyond the max fill line makes the bags very rigid and prevents them from fitting in the main bag. the bags when filled to the "max fill" line were about 6 pounds. I think they honestly should of sent an additional two bags. This would allow me to more evenly distribute the 50lbs of sand and it would prevent the bags from becoming rigid. The bags that are placed on the ends have to malleable and thus cannot be filled beyond the max fill line (I actually under filled 2 so they could easily fit on the sides.)They could also increase the bag size too to get to the registered 8lbs and increase their flexibility. So right now the bag is around 41 lbs. Its better than no weight but now I have 9 pounds of left over Play Sand that I wish I could just pour in the bag but the main bag isn't designed for this and it would create a mess in the long run.If there is specific sand to use then the posts should reference them but this is not the case.I would give them about 3.5 stars just cause the weight isn't there. Gonna round this up to 4 for now.

I am really impressed with this product and the customer service. It arrived in about two weeks, considering this is during a pandemic when everyone else is also trying to buy home workout gear I applaud their efforts. The bag is sturdy and well made. I have filled all 6 inner bags with play sand, and the total weight is about 32#, so although not ‘calibrated’ as described, it is a hood weight for me and there is still room to add other weight if you wanted. I had a minor issue with damage received during shipping and the owner responded to me immediately with excellent service to make the issue right. This is a small business that obviously has been slammed with orders and done well to satisfy the demand as best they could. I would buy from them again. 5 stars.

These are very durable and seemed to be good quality. However if I fill the 8lb bags to max fill line they are less than 5lbs. If I fill them above that line but where they will still Velcro they are about 6lbs each. Instead of being 50lb like the company stated they are about 40. The company should put another bag to fill with sand in order to properly weigh the amount advertised. I also recommend they put 6lb on the bags not 8lbs as this is very misleading if someone is not using a scale and double checking.

Very well built bag, I got it for endurance work outs so even if it doesn’t hold 50lbs I’m ok with that. I did notice though when filling the small bags if you kinda smack the bottom on the ground a few times they open and fill in better and you can get a lot more in them. Maybe this is what others were doing wrong? Either way I got about 45 lbs as the picture shows, could probably squeeze in a little more, and I’m sure they will stretch a little over time.
