Amazon Basics Photography Sand Bags for Light Stands with Handle, 4-Pack, Black

I bought these to hold down the legs of the frame for my pipe and drape stands. I am very pleased with the quality of the product. The material is heavy duty and the double zippers and strap are sturdy. Although the idea is to fill the pockets on either side of each weight with sand, I decided against that as sand attracts moisture and can seep through the zippers. After looking around, I decided the best thing to use are river stones. As you will see in the picture, they are smooth on all sides to prevent tearing at the fabric of the bag and they come in different sizes which will allow you to decide how much weight you want on each side. One 20 pound bag of stones is more than enough to fill both sides of two of the weights. I bought two bags for the four weights and each bag cost less than $13. The stones came clean of dirt but I hosed them off while inside the bag and let them dry in the sun before use. This is an inexpensive, clean, and safe solution.

These Amazon Basics sandbags are easy to fill and hold steady once they’re loaded. The material feels durable, the stitching is solid, and the zippers don’t jam. They’re basic, but they work — great for keeping light stands or tripods from tipping. Nothing complicated, just reliable weight where you need it.

Great for the price point. It’s an Amazon basic product but it’s designed to be on the floor and get dirty. Zipper pockets were impressive though. Durability is good so far with use in and out of studio. So for quick cheap sandbags they are worth it.

Nylon, not canvas. I use these to stabilize my poolside umbrella's. Canvas will rot after two seasons in the sun. These include a plastic bag to insert dry rocks which can then be placed in this black nylon, zipper closed covers. Great product. They come with small carabiner clips which I guess may be used for beach shades, I do not need them. Very happy with this purchase. Just make certain whatever you put inside is dry. That will insure the sack will last longer.

I bought these for use in weighting down my christmas tree, since my cat tends to knock it over in the middle of the night. I also ended up using one for weighing my camera tripod down that I bought later. The material feels very durable, and the double zippers are nice to have, although I did have one of the zippers break when I tried to zip it up after filling. Luckily I used gravel, and the one zipper was enough to keep the larger than sand particles from escaping. Overall, a decently sturdy, inexpensive bag that works well for adding weight, although I'd watch the zippers for signs of failure.

Been using these to weigh down the lights and the bags are great quality, with the double zipper especially (keeps the sand inside). Can store a lot of sand or rocks or weights to keep equipment steady. Functions perfectly, made out of good thick material and quality zippers.

They are good quality bag. Very sturdy fabric.

They worked great. Used to hold down our table outside. We get a lot of wind and it’s perfect!

Para el precio que tienen son muy buenos. Cuentan con un asa con costuras robustas y doble cremallera para el interior. La tela parece de calidad más que suficiente, aunque para rellenarlos de arena aconsejo usar bolsas de congelado de 5 litros con los bordes convenientemente encintados para no ir perdiendo polvillo allá donde vayas.

Awesome sandbags. I’ve owned these for a while without a single issue. Not sure why you’d need to spend more money on something as simple as bags for sand. Great quality and affordability from Amazon Basics, as always.

Bon produit.

High Quality, double zipper, I used ziplock bags inside to keep the sand in. Carbiners are cheap quality but come in handy

benutze es als Beschwerung für Sichtschutz oder für den Wäscheständer auf der Terrasse. Tolle Qualität und gut verarbeitet Haben die Taschen mit Sand befüllt .
