About 20 cubic ft (if you get the single 6in height. They are stackable). It took one pick up truck bed full of sand to fill it.

This was for my two year old grandson and since it was only him we got 1 50lb bag of sand. If you had 2 or more childen laying with the sandbox, I would purchase another bag. It will hold 100lbs total.

Not sure, bought this online. Was looking for good size and this looked bigger. Pretty happy with it. Suggest you look at how much sand each holds by volume or weight.

I believe we added about 6-8 bags. I would start with that. You can add more. We actually need to add about 2 more bags this year. We got "white play sand" from Pike Nursery. You don't want to the regular sand from Home Depot. That is more of a contractor grade sand.

A lot but don't fill up the entire base. Just fill up about slightly more than half, then the rest water. The wet sand/water mix is enough to keep it pretty stable for ordinary striking routine.

Well, if it's a 3"x3"x1" tray, I'd say couple spoonfuls..lolo If it's a 3'x3'x1' tray, then a lot! The 5# bag is enough for 2 kids to play with and not argue! lol Sorry I couldn't be for specific. I will say this, this is not a 'grainy' sand like sandbox sand, and I wouldn't suggest it be left out all the time. Hope that helps.

I used 2 bags of sand I believe were about 50lb bags. But 1 bag would be fine.

We just have 200 in ours and it can def hold another 200 to 300 balls but my son knocks it over and throws them everywhere that we didn't get more. He thinks it's fun but it's def. Not fun to pick them all up.. He's 18 months

It's been so long, I can't remember. I bought this for my granddaughter for a sand box. You might want to try it. It's very clean sand but don't quote me on this.

I used water in mind, because it was for a 6 year old, but if you want more stability use sand. The diameter of the base is about 24 inches (2 feet), the depth is about 14 inches, I used the below site to calculate the number of lbs needed to completely fill the base, you'll need between 250 to 270 lbs of sand. http://www.kidsafesand.com/Sand%20Calculator.html?diameter (use the Round Sand Boxes calculator on the right).

Not Sure. We had sand from a sandbox we put in it. Maybe one hundred pounds or more. Our sand was wet from being outside.

We bought two standard size sand bags (think about 40 or 50 lbs) but we would have been fine with just the one bag. But it was good to have two because as the kids played the pushed out a lot of sand onto the ground. Its a great toy - my 3 loved it!

Dear Amanda, the sand is totally fine, I like it with sand, because the ball doesn't shift on the floor and doesn't roll under my weight. I had no problem with sand at all. The ball is sturdy enough to use as a chair. It won't burst. I am recommending it. Just keep the spare closure pins found in the package.

We purchased 4 bags of sand at 50 pounds each. It was a good amount to play and not to full to spill over.

Unfortunately it isn't. It will fill about an inch maybe 1 1/2" in the bottom of an inside sand table that is about 16 x 20". It is great sand, feels really nice and isn't dusty, and will buy it again for that purpose. Unfortunately, it would take many boxes for an outside sand box. I would recommend play sand from a home improvement store for that purpose. Much cheaper $5/bag and in 50lb bags.

Probably depends on who is using it. My 7&8 year old girls get by with about 200lbs of sand bags on top of the base. If I had teen boys playing on it. I would probably have sand in the base and sand bags on top too.

Its a super small sandbox, we bought 4 bags but only put one bag in at a time because it ends up on the ground anyway. It would hold easily 3 bags...
