Little worried about the stand being strudy do you know how difficult it is to fill it with sand?

Not too difficult. My husband made a plastic bottle into a funnel and it worked fine.

It is not difficult if you use a funnel. I decided against filling the base and instead I put four bags of sand on top of the base and it has been sturdy against 60-70 mph winds. I hope that helps.

It is not very easy to fill, I used a funnel and that helped. I also worried it was not quite heavy enough so i bought a small sand bag and just set it on top of the base and that makes it very stable.

you have to have someone help and hold the 3 flat pads as you fill with sand and a funnel will be a big help. Very sturdy and really like this product except the wind blows it around a bit.

I purchased one ten lb. bag course sand. The sand was wet so it took time and a little messy. I also use to flower pots to conceal some of the base, so that is also extra weight. I am please with the product. The color of umbrella fades in the sun...fyi. Hope this helps:)

Should be able to move it without too much difficulty. It depends how much water or sand you put in the base.

this stand is almost like the other. a recomendation for used is put a sand bags betwen the legs of the stand for more stability

I am not sure what that is but from what I read it would not be appropriate unless the stand was secured to the ground in some manner.There seemed to be a risk of it tilting over.

Yes you can , sand , or water, just like an umbrella stand. Myself I opted to purchase 2 bags of cement and made a form and poured it around the base and painted the base. Looks very nice if I do say so myself, and I do lol. I also bought a nite dusk to dawn power strip , so it comes on and off as it should love it, a reallly good buy..

I bought a plastic stand from Walmart that you fill with sand to keep it secured for the pole of the umbrella. very inexpensive and it looks nice.

No, it's pretty big and heavy. You need a good light stand and a sandbag to keep it from falling over if gently bumped.

The stand was sufficient for me. Obviously, if you push it, it will fall over, but otherwise it's stable.

If there's anything in it it will be a pain on the sand. With my 2 little ones in it one concrete it's hard. Do not buy it for that! Look for the wagon with special wheels

Hello, I did not have any challenges. I have owned my stand now for eight months. Solid stand. what is the issue?

I have a 70in on the stand and the stand itself is pretty heavy so while you can move it, thanks to heavy duty castors it's not easy. If it was on a hard surface I think it would be very easy but it sinks into thick carpet due to the weight

Hi, I have to say, since delivery, it has been erected and I use it insitu. Putting it together was very easy and took seconds, so I imagine it wouldn't be too much problem. I hope this helps.

It takes 1-2 minutes to set up. It's not nearly as easy to set up as other stands, but with that being said it's not difficult.

The plastic is probably too thin to handle being sand box, we just use ours for water and my father already wants to buy another one jic. Plus its pretty big so that'd be a ton of sand. But you can try it, I think the sides are strong enough to handle it however.

This is not a strong stand. It will definitely bow in the middle. If you do, put sand bags on the legs.

It's very stable - this is a very heavy, solid stand. I can see how you'd be concerned from the picture but I've never had a problem with it.

The stand is pretty heavy once you fill it with water. My husband tilts it back and then it rolls easily. I have never tried to move it though I did build it.
