Excellent Quality

Quality Sandbag. I use it in a recording studio as a mic stand weight. It's still durable after a lot of use. I would highly recommend.

Great for stabilizing plant stands
February 2, 2021
The circular sand bags worked perfectly for weighting down our 6’ tall solid steel plant stands. Despite their weight and extra plate steel on the base of the stands, they kept blowing over when loaded with a hanging basket of plants. The plants made the stands top-heavy and when it got windy on our back deck the plant and stand would blow over. Your sandbags provided sufficient mass in the right place to solve the problem.
Pros
  • Easy to work with, durable material, good workmanship.
Cons
  • The 14? diameter was a couple of inches less than what I would have preferred simply for aesthetic purposes. The base of our plant stands is made of welded steel plate in the shape of a ?+? sign and measures 16? long on each of the cross members. Having some additional size options might have allowed me to fully cover the bases, but it wasn?t a problem structurally and the bags did their jobs which was really the most important thing to me

My sandbag arrived very quickly and in great shape. I use it to steady a heating lamp and it works perfectly.

Durable, easy to use, more attractive (or just less noticeable) than the alternatives we explored. These are great, we love them, and they work exactly as we hoped. Super happy with the purchase.

SANDBAGS RULE AND FIGHT THE WIND!!!
February 1, 2021
I laughed at my wife when she wanted me to buy these to hold our patio table with umbrella down during the fierce Santa Ana winds here in Los Angeles. However, these bags are a sweet stylish black that adds a nice touch and has kept my table landlocked. These bags are great! I even apologized to my wife for laughing at her. Great and affordable product AND WE GOT THEM QUICKLY!!!

Quality product
February 1, 2021
Purchased 3 circular sandbags for outdoor curtain posts with rods that were prone to tipping in strong winds. Product is well made with quality materials and holds a substantial amount of sand (filled into 1 gallon zip lock freezer bags). Easy to handle and secure, and best of all, no more tipping over.
Pros
  • Compact, easy to handle and store.
Cons
  • If left out in direct sunlight, UV protection needs to be applied to prevent discoloration.

Used them as weights for a punching bag. Work perfectly. Very well made and the handle makes it easy to carry. My only suggestion would be that the clip could be a little stronger.

Extremely Durable
February 1, 2021
These bags are durable! They faded in the sun, but who cares? We’ve pushed them to their limit (filled too full, tossed around, smashed them up against rough surfaces) and they still zip and hold the sand no problem. Highly recommend. Would buy again.

Weights for punching bag
January 13, 2021
I needed to add weights to an everlast stand up punching bag. Barbell weights are hard to come by and expensive. These sandbags were an ideal alternative. Prompt shipping and were filled as requested. They fit perfectly on the pegs
Pros
  • Circular, fit on the pegs

I bought 3 circular sandbags, filled, to add some weight to the heavy bag stand. They seem to be made very well, and are a perfect fit for what I needed. I was sent at first 3 unfilled bags, but they’ve corrected the issue right away. Great customer service, very prompt with all of their replies.

Dreaming of heavy doughnuts
October 7, 2020
These little darlin's are the perfect thing for stand alone umbrellas. Nice high quality, heavy duty product that looks good while at work. It was engineered for this purpose and we ended up putting two on each of our stand up umbrellas and they don't budge in the breeze...and we get some breezes here in Arizona. Great product, thank you.

I am using the circular sandbags to anchor my shade gazebo. I'm planning to purchase a second set for windy times, but the set of four are enough for everyday,
Pros

By karen j.

well made
July 26, 2020
The first thing I noticed was how sturdy this is. It's strong. Sturdy. Seems to be well made. I purchased my unfilled. Prior to purchasing it, I had a bag of sand laying across the legs of my umbrella. I was surprised by how much of that bag was able to fit in the new sandbag. It holds a lot ! Having said that, I believe this is worth mentioning, as well. I've been thinking I might like to purchase a 2nd bag. I close the umbrella at night. But, last week a storm came up, while I was away. There was a sizable wind that came with it. My neighbors noticed the umbrella seemed to be swaying. So, they came to close it for me. Great neighbors, huh ? I think a 2nd bag would make the base more stable & be heavy enough to withstand that kind of wind. We get some serious wind around here.
Pros
  • Again, it's well made. Even with sand, from filling, the zipper went right up. The clasp is sturdy,and well secured to the bag, as well. Putting it around the pole, at the base, was no problem either. It's compact and easy to move. No messes either !
Cons
  • This is not, so much, a 'con'. But, it does require 2 people to fill this. One to hold it open, shake it down, & one to pour. If that's how you're doing it. I suppose 1 person could scoop smaller amounts and do it.
  • I was trying to do it alone. I actually stopped a young man walking past my house and asked for his help. Most people are willing to help, if it doesn't take much of their time, or cost them anything. : ]

Circular Sandbags for Outdoor Patio Umbrella
July 22, 2020
I bought 2 empty circular sandbags, filled each of them up with sand then placed both of them on top of my outdoor patio umbrella base to prevent the umbrella from falling over from the wind. This product is doing exactly what I needed it to do which is a great buy in my book! Thank you The Sandbag Store! :D
Pros
  • 2 sandbags prevent one large patio umbrella from tipping over from wind
Cons
  • None that I can tell!

Perfect for the job
July 22, 2020
I live in a very windy area and these sandbags work well to secure my patio umbrella.
Pros
  • fill them with sand in the Spring (nice wide opening make this easier); empty the sand into the garden in the Fall.
Cons
  • Have not discovered any "cons" yet

Just what I needed!
July 22, 2020
Well made. Good price. Holds a lot of sand. Get yourself some!
Pros
  • Metal clasp. Large capacity. Heavy duty materials.
Cons
  • If you use plastic bags for the sand it?s a bit of a challenge to shape the bags into a semi-circle to fit into the sandbag. Once you get the gist of it it?s easy.

We were looking for weights to hold down a stand up boxing bag. We got 2 circular sandbags and filled them up at the beach. The wrap around the base of the boxing bag and provide the stability we were looking for. They were the perfect option.

Cons

Pros
  • Sturdy
  • Well constructed
  • Easy to fill
  • Easy to carry
  • Easy to clip around the umbrella stand
  • Fast delivery even during Covid supply chain issues
Cons
  • None

Easy to use and work well.
July 6, 2020
These are easy to use. They work well. Our ten foot umbrella needed four bags to stabilize the umbrella from the gusts. Moving 4 25-lbs bags is much easier than moving a 100-lbs base. We would purchase these again.

Great just what I wanted.
July 5, 2020
It's just what I wanted for extra peace of mind, we are up on hill and it's very windy some days. I just got a new umbrella and I want it to stay in place so the extra weight of sand was cheap and bag looks good. Looks so much better than placing bricks or rocks on stand . Sandbag just blends in and no one notices. I love it
Pros
  • Easy to fill, arrived timely looks great
Cons
  • I have found no cons

Definitely a 2 person job to fill this unless you use a large funnel
July 5, 2020
I have to admit I got very frustrated trying to fill this by myself. It is extremely awkward and would go much faster with 2 people or some kind of funnel system. My one piece of feedback is that by putting the handle (which is very sturdy) over the opening where the sand goes made the task of filling the bag so much harder than it needed to be. I truly appreciate the compactness and sturdiness of this item, all the way down to the handle, clip and zipper. I kinda laughed at a zipper with sand...but it zipped right up and is sturdy as heck, no expense spared on the zipper. After finally getting the initial sand in the bottom 2 legs the bag was able to stand up but the handle still made it difficult to continue to fill alone. Sand isn't light and shifts while trying to fill the bag. Once I got it filled and zipped shut the rest was a piece of cake. Drop it down around my awning stand and clip it together. All-in-all I am extremely pleased with the final result of this product AND the fact it is Made in the USA!!

Merchant Response:Thanks for the review K! I am very sorry for you struggles filling these circular bags. Although its too late for you (sorry again) for those reading this review: - Fill 5 zip-lock style sandwich baggies with ~5 lbs of sand each. Poke a small breather hole in the filled bags so air can escape, then place into your circular bag. We are working to include instructions in the box on future orders so others don't have your frustration. Thank you again.
Pros
  • Sturdy, solid, excellent materials, compact and effective.
Cons
  • Thick handle covers the opening where you have to pour in the sand. Definitely needs a funnel system or 2 people.

Didn't want to have to buy a new, heavier base for my umbrella. This did the trick and was much less expensive than a new base.

PERFECT
July 3, 2020
Our stand alone umbrellas would blow over with the higher winds even with the 30 pound bases. We bought these Circular Sandbags, received them in the mail within 5 days, went to our local hardware store and bought a 50 pound bag of sand for 3 dollars, filled each one up with 25 pounds of the sand. Now they don't budge regardless of the wind. With them being black and the base black you don't even notice them. We are very happy with our purchase.
Pros
  • Easy to use, durable and blend in with the décor.

The Right Weight Option
July 2, 2020
These are the obvious and neat weight options for umbrellas. I have a VERY large umbrella which the manufacturer's sand-filled base was insufficient during even mildly windy days. Adding two of these sandbags solved my problem.
Pros
  • Neat appearance; convenient carrying handles; able to be used on a variety of pole shapes and sizes.
Cons
  • Being older, I opted to have these delivered pre-filled with sand, at an additional?I think high-priced?cost. A younger, more able-bodied person would find it rather easy to fill the bags themselves to save some money.

Does the job
June 30, 2020
I recently purchased 2 circular sandbags to add weight to the base of a patio umbrella. They were delivered quickly, were easy to fill and keep the base steady when the wind kicks up. I particularly like its shape and the clasp that connects the ends of the bag. Along with the handle they make it easy to move the sandbags and base.

Works Well, Durable Material

I was looking to add some extra weight to my patio umbrella/table, due to occasional strong winds, and this does the trick. Thick, durable material, and easy to fill.
By Brian

Perfect! Heavy, small and stable.
June 26, 2020
This product is awesome. This sandbag will fit almost any umbrella stand because it is a C shape. It is very sturdy with very good quality material, stitching and hardware (zipper and latch). We got two just in case but I think one (25lbs) would have done fine. We live by the beach and it can get very windy. Also, the fact that it can be ordered already filled, is VERY convenient! Highly recommend!!

Excellent product to add weight to umbrella stand. Very attractive & functional. Handy carrying strap. I ordered them prefilled, so ready to use on receipt. - no hassle filling them.

Fantastic solution
June 14, 2020
These bags look fabulous! Very well made. I filled quart size freezer bags with sand to avoid sand leakage around zipper. Could not get quite 25 lbs sand when doing this. We have a fair amount of wind ( south coast Massachusetts) and so far, umbrellas holding but if not will certainly get a second bag for each, if needed.
Pros
  • Nice appearance.
  • Easy to pick up and move
Cons
  • Couldn't fit 25lbs sand in bag when filling with quart size freezer bags filled with sand

Outstanding Circular Sandbags!
June 13, 2020
I purchased 2 circular sandbags from the Sandbag store for my patio umbrella. Then, at the garden center, I purchased a 50-lb. bag of small river rocks (1/2-cubic foot) and used them to fill quart-size baggies. The baggies of rocks fit perfectly into the sandbags and the 50-lb. bag of rocks was the perfect amount to fill the 2 circular sandbags (25-lbs. in each sandbag). Hopefully, they will stand up to the sun and the rain during the summer months. These are the perfect solution to adding weight to my umbrella so that it stays upright.
Pros
  • 2 circular sandbags hold a total of 50-lbs of river rock perfectly.
  • The sandbags are the perfect size to fit over the patio umbrella stand and they stack perfectly so you can add extra bags if needed.
  • They each hold about 25-lbs of filler so they are manageable to lift.
  • The bags can be easily removed from umbrella stand so that the umbrella can be moved around the patio.
  • The strap which is attached to the sandbag makes it convenient to carry the bag.
  • The sandbags appear to be very sturdy and well made.
  • The hardware used for connecting the two ends of the sandbag is very substantial.
  • The sandbags are MADE IN AMERICA!
  • Outstanding product!
Cons
  • None

These were perfect to help stabilize my microphone stands. I could not find anything else on the market that was such a good fit for this purpose. I used pea gravel instead of sand and that worked very well. The material, stitching, and zippers are heavy-duty so this will last a long time through lots of use. Highly recommended.
