Valor Fitness VB-FSB-67 Valor Boxing Free Standing Punching Bag

I just got this a day ago. A couple thoughts. 1. The base holds a lot more than 100lbs of sand. I would say it holds 250lbs because I put in 120lbs along with 4 45lb steel plates which I haven't used for a while, for a total of 300lbs. Trust me, this thing does not budge at the base, but the bag itself does move just enough to give feedback to your hits. 2. It came in a box that was partially shredded as there was no stuffing around the two pieces to prevent them from moving around wildly in it. The two pieces were 100% undamaged though, so I was happy. 3. There was zero, as in nothing, in terms of documentation, or even a receipt, in the box. That is bad business in my opinion, and easily fixable. I looked at the picture on the website to see how to tie the top and bottom together after I filled the base with sand and weight plates. It was hard on my hands getting the cord tight, but now that it is together it appears much sturdier than I expected. I am not concerned at all about the cord holding it together ripping or causing any issues. 4. I pounded on it this morning and it was exactly what I was looking for. Took hard hits and kicks without falling over or sliding. Depending on how much weight you put in it your results may vary somewhat. I am very satisfied.

so far is holding up really good. i added 150 lb of play-sand from home depot and still moves a little when you hit it. overall i would say is really good to practice at home your hits and get a good cardio work out because when it moves it makes you move with it.
