where does the sandbags go and is it enough to hold the steps under water

The bag goes under the stairs and it does hold the stairs down. It's tricky to get the bag under the stairs with one person but with determination you can do it. Recommended to use two people, one to hold the stairs down and one to place the bag.

I didn't use sand bags. I strapped a rubber coated 10lb. weight to each side of the ladder near the bottom.

The sandsbags go under the stairs. I found that is holds for a small person, but not a big person like myself. The ladder is higher than the side of our pool, and it needs the support of the pool side to keep it from moving, so I have had to add 4x4's under it to stay in place. Other than that, I like it

Goes under steps it's enough but if you have not bought it don't I threw mine in the trash a month afterwards because it was such a pain.

If you had all the sandbags full and maybe use the stakes as well it would be ok... We used this on Myrtle Beach with just the sandbags and sand around the bottom floor without any problems. We didn't use the stakes on the beach - it has a bottom that holds your stuff also that helps to hold it down..

Not real sure havent used it on he beach yet. I think it will with the proper stakes to hold it down and with some items inside it.

I'm not sure, it has poles you hammer into the ground, keeping it stable. If you're standing it, and want be sure it stays, use four deep pots. If they have a drain hole, all the better, put the legs through the holes into the sand. Weigh them down with gravel, rocks, etc. I hope I helped you, I love mine!

Absolutely not. There must be something on the back to hold it in place.I did not go with sand or water. Instead, I placed bags of topsoil on the base. It works just as well and much easier to remove if needed.

The sand goes in the side panels, they stay in place very well. There is a cavity under them but nothing very big can get inside. I have been very pleased with them.

No, it's a tight fit between the ring and the base but water can slip by, I think fine sand could too. I tape over the rings when I pick up sand or dirt. Otherwise they work very well

I bought a bade from Home Depot to hold it. It's basically weight. You can always use sand bags

We have it outside on fairly level ground. We put sandbags on the legs to prevent wobbling.

We put one bag (from Lowes) in the sand table and no water. The grands have fun with it on both sides. It is on our patio and with more sand, it would be harder to move. One bag is enough for them. They do like to put the sand down the hole where the umbrella goes so you might want to put something to catch the sand.

Yes if you sand bag it. Because of its size it wants to cant left or right or twist off center. What I did is make some weighted feet to give it stability. I used 4 buckets and filled them with plaster of Paris making sure the 4 bottom poles were centered and straight. The poles stay in the plaster of Paris forever and are transported separately in their own box. You can set the arch up on the beach and bury the buckets on the sand. You'll be good to go.

I purchased these steps because they were suppose to stay in place. My steps were used and had been sold to me as new but I bought in December so I found out to late to return themWe set 2 50 lbs bags of sand on top because you can not get in on back side But the ad stated they would stay without weighs

We use two large rounded rocks that we tie to the sides with ropes. It is easy to haul up rocks and take steps out of pool in the fall. We did not fill the steps with sand it make removal easier. The top of the steps is fastened to the side rails of our wood stairs we built for going down to our deck. This will be our third year with these steps. They are safe and sturdy and take up minimal space in pool.

You fill them with sand so the hollow plastic is not "open". However, they are built like any other steps and there is a cavity under the steps. A kid can't swim under them if they are mounted properly.

The umbrella has a sand auger on the bottom. We had no trouble at the beach with the umbrella staying in place even with moderate winds.

It will hold the sand bags but you'll be lucky to cram 25 pounds of sand bags in it much less 50. If you want a 50 pound vest this one is a bad choice. MIR sells a 60 pound vest on amazon that comes with the weights. I just went with that one. Its a bit pricey but it's worth it.

I ordered this to take to the beach. I would highly recommend sand anchors. What we did was dig holes aobut 6-8" deep, put the stake in sideways, and pack sand and water on top of it. It held for the most part, but some high winds definitely made the stakes loosen and therefore the net sagged. also note that the poles seemed to dig down into lose sand a bit when trying to make the lines to the stakes tight. Not a problem, unless you must have the net at the exact correct height.
