Can the bag be filled with sand? What is the max weight it holds?

It can be filled with sand but it feels like you are punching a rock and weight over 350 lbs

Yes, you can use 25 lb sandbags to hold each corner. Blast Zone, the manufacturer, has them on their site.

Yes. It's a flat bag. You will have to put sand or something in it but looks just like what it looks like on the picture.

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

I wouldnt fill it with bricks, but this bag held up well with a sixer of beer and a jar of moonshine alongside some clothes and a solar charger on a camping trip last summer. The material is pretty tough, no issues with normal use plus a few careless incidents. The biggest concern with weight i think would be the straps. I havent had any problems with them, but i can imagine they wouldnt hold up well under excessive weight.

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.

Yes. it's a nice bag for the price. The only thing you need is the sand to stuff it with. Or beans haha...

The manual says to add 365 pounds of sand. I used seven 50 pound bags (350 pounds total), which barely fit (had to keep shaking the base to get the sand to settle), and I can hang on the rim and it won't tip.

Sorry, I thought you were asking about the tent its' self, seems you are looking at the bag weights. They are a medium weight nylon like material. We used quart zip lock bags to put the sand in and filled the weight bags with those to keep the sand from coming through the material. Each one held 40 pounds of sand.

I *think* so but am not sure. The base is pretty thick sturdy plastic so it *should* hold water but I'm not sure if it's completely airtight. Sand is denser than water so it would be better to fill it with sand. After we filled ours with sand I don't recall seeing it leak. A bag of sand is pretty cheap from Lowe's.

The bags are a heavy unlined canvas and have a fold at the top with velcro that keeps it tight. If you filled them with water it would leak through the bag and the top. I'm assuming your wondering about water so you don't have to carry the 40lb bags of sand around. I'm thinking if you could find some kind of water/liquid bladder that you could slide into the bags then then fill with water. You may want to check into a sporting goods store, but that option may be quite expensive especially since you would need 4 of them.

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

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.

Maybe. It would stab into the ground and hold pretty well, but I'm not sure about sand. Sorry.

I put in 250 lbs of sand. So far so good, but I haven't had high winds yet. Honestly, though, I'm not sure I could fit in more than 5 bags. Granted, my sand was not completely dry when I put it in, so I had to cram it toward the front. Maybe 1/2 to 1 more bag could fit in there if the sand was completely dry.

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.

I used 4 bags of 0.5 cu ft each of sand. Each bag weighed in at 48 pounds so that is nearly 200 pounds of sand. Nearly equal to 25 gallons of water..which weighs nearly 8 pounds per gallon. The guy that is using a 50 pound weight is really not securing his very well. One bag of sand and I could still tip mine over pretty easily. that was 48 pounds.
