I only put sand on one side but either side is built to play and hold sand and/or water. I went through one bag this summer filling up one side over and over again. So doing both sides it would probably take less than 1/4 of a bag to initially fill it.

I purchased this table for our grandson. They did use both sides for sand. It doesn't need much sand to be fun. Too much and it will be more of a mess when adding toys. Enjoy!

Yes, absolutely. When it comes, you have to put it together, The top piece and the 4 legs. Just pull the legs back off and stick it all back in the box. I bought two of these, one for my daughters house and one for mine. My daughter's doesn't have the sand section. We just use both sides with water instead of buying sand at my house.

I did and it worked ok for small jobs. I did sift and dry the sand in an oven before using.

Hi TL :-)The pool comes with a liner so really sand isn't required but if you want to make it a little more stable you can use sand. That's about all prep you need to do as far as I know (I haven't put one together myself) It's listed as 20-40 minutes to assemble so probably double that I'd say, Hope this helps!!! If theres any other questions please let me know Cheers Dale Fraser

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

I put water in the base rather that sand and it worked quite well. I don't know how much sand...I could guess, but I don't think that would help you

It is two separate pieces. Haven't even used sand in it yet. We just put water in both sides. Figured the kids would get it all mixed together anyway.

I only recall 2 sand pockets. We also took our own additional stakes to pound in to sand when using @ ocean. It worked well that way, did not blow away.

Our instructions say it takes 100 lbs of No. 20 silica sand. We buy two 50-lb bags of filter sand at a home improvement-type store that sells pool supplies.

I believe the S166T uses 100 lbs of sand, but I sent my questions to dpool@intheswim.com and received a quick, reliable response.

No sand, it's filled with air (comes with a pump) I love it. I use it for Pilates and core workouts mainly. It's pretty sturdy I'm 160lbs and it doesn't sink. Hope this helps!

I wouldn't recommend this sand for a sandbox. It is a much finer grain than what is usually found in a sandbox. It may cause respritory issues.

It depends on what kind of sand box you want to use. If you want a full-size sand box it would cost a LOT of money to fill a sand box. It's about $20 for just 2.2 pounds, it would take over 100 of those packages to even attempt to fill one. However, I don't see why it couldn't work; I wouldn't suggest using it for outdoor use because it may combine with dirt, grass and other things and become a right mess. Not to mention it will get away from you easily and would get lost in the yard and you'd never be able to pick it up. Overall I'd say; indoor use only is strongly advised.

I've only used the sand for my grandson's small standup sandbox. The sand is very fine, clean, and soft. I hope this helps.

I consider myself handy and it took two adults three hours. I would not recommend doing it alone as it takes two to install the main pole. The main thing if you fill with sand do NOT use play sand. We tried this and had to go back to the store to get multipurpose as the play sand was to compact.

A lot. We used a funnel to get it in. Mine is only half full and my 8 yr can't move it too much. I filled the large size Tupperware 3.4 full at the beach. Probably can hold a whole large Tupperware of sand. Can use water but hard to empty. I worry about a leak in my apartment. I am a 45 yr old adult and use it as well.

I have tried this and it works, but the courser the sand the better. I also have mixed it with salt.
