Best for Weights above 100lbs; Also Don't Fill the Filler Bags
I don't want to be too harsh on what may be a decent piece of equipment for someone else. While I've only had this a couple days, there are no obvious failures like stitches coming undone or sand leaking. However, there are some issues I wish I'd known about before ordering. Since there's no other reviews presently this is for you, prospective buyer, to better know what is being offered here.1. The large bag (50-125lb) is a big duffel bag. If you're going to work with less than 100lbs, there is going to be a ton of slack in the fabric. Maybe this is what you'd like. I found it frustrating, since the handles go slack over a foot above the ground when I put the bag down; with weights closer to 50lbs I'm not getting full reps.2. The large size comes with three identical filler bags (not two larges and one medium, like in the listing), good construction quality but totally inaccurate fill lines. They have a max fill line near the top in red, but that's got to be over 70lbs of sand. The duffel bag is only rated for 125lbs total, and you've got three filler bags. However, less is more when it comes to filling the filler bags; half way is about 40lbs, and this way they'll fit more easily into the duffel bag as well as move more easily during dynamic lifts (that's a good thing).3. Looks brown online, but it's really more of an olive green. I personally hate olive green; I know it's many peoples favorite, military-inspired color. Just fair warning, it's not the same color you're seeing on the screen. Also mine has a couple thin beige stripes where the fabric has either faded or was manufactured incorrectly.Otherwise it's got good soft handles (more grip options than most sandbags I've seen), zipper seems strong, fill bags have held up so far to minor tossing and dropping. I'll update this if something goes wrong. But I'll also be buying a smaller bag for when I want to do work with less than 100lbs.

Stitching is weak!
I bought both the medium and large bags. The large is rated at 125lbs and the medium is rated at 75lbs. I received these about a week ago.Today I was finally able to put sand in the bags and try them out. The large bag comes with three filler bags. As I was putting in the second filler bag, the stitching on the center handle broke with approx 90lbs of sand in the bag. I am not impressed with how easily it broke with only trying to place the filler bags into the main bag. The medium bag however held up as I put the filler sand bags inside.

Perfect the gym less quarantine
A perfect solution if you want some heavy weights. Its not exactly a bench and bar set but fits in well as a substitute, especially with the gyms closed.It does come with 3 interior fill bags (2 large 1 small) and they are quality made with an interior rubberized layer to prevent damage. Even filled to the recommended red line fill limit on the bag, its still plenty heavy.The exterior bag is quite strong as well. The straps are top notch and the stitching is great quality. Ive done a full workout tossing the bag around and dropping it to the ground over and over again. Gives a great workout and is of great quality. Well worth the money.

High quality, only one issue
Just used it for the first time today and it is very high quality. I really like all the handle positions, it lets you get creative with different grips and movements.I bought some sand and let it air dry for 3 days. I can see it being an issue with mold if you put wet sand in it. I weighed the bags and made sure the total weight was not more than 75lbs. It is a tight fit with both bags, it took a little effort getting the second bag in.I will say, that after one workout session, one of the handles stitching started to become loose, I was a little disappointed. Hoping the other handles hold up and there are no more issues.Overall it is a quality bag and I was able to get a good bi/tri workout in.

Worth every penny
I've read reviews about sandbags failing at seams and leaking. I was nervous to throw the bag due to the cost, but I gave it a try because it has a guarantee. I was not disappointed... only 1 without with it so far, but I went ham on it... it still looks new. I don't leave reviews, but I had to with this bag. I'm rarely impressed and this bag is worth the cost.

Well made - worth the investment
I’ve had an opportunity to use this several times now. First impression is it’s made very well. Stitching on the handles and the rip-stop across the material is well done. I also like the amount of handles which really comes in handy when your working to exhaustion and the handle option makes the tool easy to use. I’m pleased with this workout equipment.

Durable and Great Price
I poured over reviews for these and finally settled on this one. It’s perfect! Very durable and I like that you can switch out bags for different weights. I used Play Sand from Lowe’s as filler and it worked great. Used this daily during the pandemic while gym was closed and definitely got my money’s worth

Perfect training bag you won’t be disappointed.
Absolutely love this bag. Has the perfect handle positions. The only bit of a down side is the inner bags leaked with the sand I added. I found that if I put a plastic bag inside the inner bag it doesn’t leak. Perfect for all my bag training and would totally buy another as all other brands are way more expensive with same build quality.

Well made!!
Only reason I didn’t give 5 stars, is to see how it holds up over time. Seems well made, lots of handles for various exercises. Very happy so far!!
