How much does this bag weigh empty? (surely 18 lb on product description can't be correct)

It weighs 1 lb 5 oz. very light and my husband really likes it. Very waterproof.

Hey Rob,It's definitely not 18 pounds! I didn't notice that in the product description when I ordered it, or I certainly would have thought twice. I've let a friend borrow it for a float trip, so I don't have it handy to weigh at the moment but I would estimate 2 to 3 pounds. It's not heavy-duty to the point of overkill, but it does seem to be well made and has worked well for me. Never had it fully submerged, but in the floor of my canoe with water pooling it kept my gear dry. It is a little smaller than I expected but I think that was a mis-estimation on my part. I think the advertised 30L is probably accurate, I'm just used to having a larger pack (I use 46L and 70L packs for backpacking.) Hey Rob,It's definitely not 18 pounds!

Yeah it didn't weigh nearly that much empty. Don't have an actual number for you but it's quite light.

it is only a couple pounds. I bought it to sit on the back of my motorcycle for long trips. I put stuff in there I don't want to get wet. It works great. I would buy it again.

Caution: It's quite heavy empty, and that's why I don't use it. I seem to recall the weight listed somewhere as eight pounds; just found it on Amazon: Product Dimensions: 14.5 x 8 x 18 inches ; 7.3 pounds. Too heavy, as far as I'm concerned. Just enough room for a computer, folder with papers, and perhaps a book or two. Try carrying it up and down subway steps!!

I would say you are expecting to much from this cheap bag. It's probably more like 2lbs. There's not much to it. It packs up pretty small, and is a decent little bag for occasional warm weather camping for the price.i am very pleased with it. The inside material is "sticky" on your skin when sweaty, other than that for ~$20 it's good enough. Good luck.

To me it is very light weight. This is the 40-inch bag which holds alot. If you are putting it in a backpack, it probably weighs a pound to 1.3 pounds, empty.

The bag should be one kilogram or two point two lbs. If not they may have sent the wrong bag.

It is very flat and light. I don't know the approximate weight, but very easy to transport. The trick is putting is back in the bag, but there is a video I strongly suggest you watch.

The bag itself is 100 lbs. There wasn't a lot of packaging around it so I would guess the bag and the packaging didn't weigh much more than 105 lbs, if that. If you need to know for absolute certain maybe you could contact the shipper. Hope this helps!

The information given on the Amazon site (1 lb) is incorrect. It is at least 5 lbs, heavier than I can use for a trip overseas so I am returning it since it will load down my luggage.

I don't know the exact weight but I am between 135-140 pounds and feel that the bag is light. If I felt like I had a heavy load, I never blamed it on the weight of the pack itself.

I didn't weigh the package, but it felt about 1 pound. Its about the same size as 1 gallon freezer bag.

Seems like about 6 lbs. but i don't have a scale at home. I pack ALL my gear in the bag and don't go over the limit.

Good Question. I never noticed that so I weighed the unopened bag on my kitchen scales and it came in at a touch under 5 lbs.

You can call the company and they will give you a weight. If I remember correctly it was roughly a 3" x 5" zip top bag.

It doesn't weigh much empty. You have to fill it with sand or with water first. I filled mine with 1 lb of sand & I can still move it around pretty easily but it doesn't move on it's own much when using it. I can still add more sand as there is still plenty of room to fill but I haven't needed to. This is meant to be a reflex bag anyway, not a full strength punching bag.

The last bag I received weighed 38lbs. No holes in bag, thought some leaked out but no. I'll weigh the next one to see if we are getting shorted.

From the Samsonite website, I believe the one there is the same as I purchased, so it says 8 lbs. empty.
