Amazon Basics Photography Sand Bags for Light Stands with Handle, 4-Pack, Black

I bought these to hold down the legs of the frame for my pipe and drape stands. I am very pleased with the quality of the product. The material is heavy duty and the double zippers and strap are sturdy. Although the idea is to fill the pockets on either side of each weight with sand, I decided against that as sand attracts moisture and can seep through the zippers. After looking around, I decided the best thing to use are river stones. As you will see in the picture, they are smooth on all sides to prevent tearing at the fabric of the bag and they come in different sizes which will allow you to decide how much weight you want on each side. One 20 pound bag of stones is more than enough to fill both sides of two of the weights. I bought two bags for the four weights and each bag cost less than $13. The stones came clean of dirt but I hosed them off while inside the bag and let them dry in the sun before use. This is an inexpensive, clean, and safe solution.

Nylon, not canvas. I use these to stabilize my poolside umbrella's. Canvas will rot after two seasons in the sun. These include a plastic bag to insert dry rocks which can then be placed in this black nylon, zipper closed covers. Great product. They come with small carabiner clips which I guess may be used for beach shades, I do not need them. Very happy with this purchase. Just make certain whatever you put inside is dry. That will insure the sack will last longer.

This is so well made! It has a double zipper system. As an FYI a 50 lb bag of sand fills 4 bags.

It says it's made for up to 20lbs, but was only able to personally use 12 lbs in it. It just didn't have enough room. I didn't use sand in this instance because the dampness would be too difficult to remove from the sacks one buys here in Home Depot. So I decided on the next best thing, smooth stone pea gravel. Was able to get the humidity out of them including the sand or small particles they come with in them using a $4 plastic basket (from there also) that I punched holes in the bottom in order to pan the sand using a garden hose onto the stones. Spread them over a black (unfolded) garbage bag in the blazing sun for about 36 hours to make sure they were very dry. Then was able to weigh them on a small scale and place 6 lbs in each pocket. Couldn't go more without it affecting the closing of the zippers. But it's enough for what I need them for thankfully. Saved a bunch of money with the method.

The zipper on one bag was poorly finished and I consequently drug the pull completely off of the coils when I closed the zipper. It took me a good 20 or so minutes to put the pull back into service. Despite this small misadventure, the bags work surprisingly well. I was most concerned about leaking sand all over my studio floor. But the double zipper closure are leak-proof. I don’t move these bags around all that much. It follow, they won’t get much of a durability test here. Nevertheless, my sense is these things are reasonably well constructed. But I would not recommend them to a crew who are in the habit of tossing these things around a lot every day.

Good product for the price. I'd recommend it.

Durable with no leakage unlike those cheap neewer ones.

Great for the price point. It’s an Amazon basic product but it’s designed to be on the floor and get dirty. Zipper pockets were impressive though. Durability is good so far with use in and out of studio. So for quick cheap sandbags they are worth it.

Buenos acabados, costuras bien rematadas y reforzadas. No lo he probado con arena, sino con discos de pump y han aguantado bien pese a que no se reparte el peso de manera homogénea. Si se va a usar con mosquetones recomiendo poner mosquetones metálicos, eso sí, porque los que trae son de plástico y se ven muy endebles.

Op de foto's zitten er 4 scheermesjes bij. Bij levering zijn er geen scheermesjes aanwezig om een ​​ader aan te sluiten. Een product retourneren. Dit is oplichting en geen eerlijkheid bij het verkopen

These are great!

This is super handy. Reliable and affordable

Sirven bien, la arena hay que ponerla dentro de bolsas herméticas porque si no traspasa la tela y se sale, pero fuera de eso funcionan perfecto.
