| I bought this as an xmas present for my husband. with stress i thought it would be fun to take it out on the bag. I had it shipped to a friend's house (for the surprise xmas present) when i saw the box it was shipped in i was worried, it was beat up badly, there were big holes and gaps at the top and bottom of the box - however the bag itself was not damaged in shipping which is unreal if you saw the box! it is heavy (duh) over 100lbs, so it is tough to move around alone. i got the recomended heavy bag hanger and it was very simple to install. The bag is great, so much fun to punch, i'm getting my own gloves! make sure you hang it away fom other things, as it tends to swing a little and does need to be attached to a very secure wood beam. i love the design of this bag more than the others i looked at, as the webbing instead of the metal chains is truly more quiet and makes for a better product in my opinion, without all the rubbing of the metal on the bag. the bag does have spots that are harder than other spots, down lower is much harder to hit than up high. Looking forward to learning more about technique and cardio boxing workouts. |
Great bag!

| Great heavy bag. The box is a lot heavier than 100 lbs. though, so be prepared. The sales guy passed if off to me, and I completely embarassed myself trying to pick it up in the box. But heavier is good, so go for it. I recommend the bag highly, but make sure you get some gloves if you are not used to punching a bag like this; the vinyl looks like it will be easier on your knuckles than canvas, but it isn't. You'll tear your skin off or give yourself some nasty friction burns if you aren't careful. |
Great bag!

| Very pleased with this bag. I have been using it hard for 3-4 days a week for about a month and I love it! Would recommend! |

| I purchased this as a gift for my husband. The shipping took a LONG time. I ordered two day shipping, and it took over two weeks to arrive. The bag arrived in good condition, and was exactly as described on the Amazon page. We are used to freestanding bags, so getting used to a hanging bag took a little practice. We have it hung from a hoist in the garage, and it has stayed there without trouble for the last 3 months. We have had no issues with the hanging mechanism, and did not need to do anything "special" to get it to hang correctly. This is a great bag, at a great price. |

I paid $50 with free shipping for the bag.
(I wish everyone would make a point to say how much they paid on all their purchases since this makes a world of a difference when reading other user's reviews.)
With this said, it does its job.
Just like what I expected after some of the review, the top gets soft and bottom gets hard.
