do you have to fill these with sand or do they come already weighted?

Ready to go. Each weight is 5 pounds. We wouldn't be without them, they are durable. They are similar to a free weight used in weightlifting, only with a slot for the canopy's legs.

Yes to what Larry said it was a couple of pounds of sand. Then set in the pool and let it fill with water and attach arms to pool deck. Make sure the bottom is sitting flush with your pool bottom it has a tendency for the front to float up a bit before attaching the arms. I like these steps a nice wider step and it is secure.

They're not too heavy...even the big one filled and planted...you can pick it up and move it anyway. But they do have drainage holes so if you're going to use them inside, you'll need something under them to catch any water overflow.

The weights can easily be removed and added. There are little bags of sand in pockets which you remove and replace. The bags are in 1.25 lb. increments.

In my opinion, when the weights are filled to capacity they will work (and free sand lol) I actually have them holding down a metal gazebo. Hope this helps.

These are single weighted. It's still not easy to tip them over. The box these came in alerted me to the fact the same company makes heavier options.

They are light plastic and would float. Pool steps are usually weighted down with sand in the base.

Just stack them and then wet them with a hose and it will expand and get very heavy like a sandbag.

I don't know the exact weight, but they are not very heavy at all. However, they are great stakes for the sand! Have a great vacation!

Yes. There are pockets that are made to be filled with sand (or whatever is available) to weigh it down and keep it in place.

They are not weighted at all. The end cap can come off and you can add some weight if you would like.

You have to fill it up yourself, Don't worry though. You can fill it up with common sand, gravel, etc.

Yes, the are easy to fill with water and empty easily. Sand would be more of a permanent thing. We have bought 5 of them for use in our corporate conference center and find them perfect for our use. We don't fill the bases as the use is indoors and they are stable. We are very satisfied with the product and would recommend.

Yes. Comes with instructions on how to fill with sand and bricks if desired.

I use them indoors right now, but I would think a strong wind would knock them over. Someone else suggested filling them with sand to keep them steady.

They are not light weight, but you might use some heavy duty Velcro with adhesive. We keep ours on the ground and move them around (with ease) as needed.

Hi Renee, They do not come inflated. I used a pump from a pilates ball. I believe it is a pretty standard pin. Hope this helps.
