 This is actually the PLASTIC ball hook swivel, not the metal ball hook. |

| As of Jan. 2010 the picture of the product is NOT representative of what you will receive. You will receive a PLASTIC ball hook, not the metal ball hook pictured, which is no longer being manufactured by Everlast. Also, if the eye hook comes out of the ball (trust me, it will) simply use superglue on the threads and screw it back in, it will no longer work it's way loose. |

| I bought this everlast swivel a week ago along with an everlast 4210 speedbag from acadamy. I am not a boxer, and do not plan to be one. I only bought the speedbag and swivel to do something physically active that isn't as boring as running. The swivel only lasted a week till the first link (the eyelet) completely detached from the ball socket. There is a small screw inside the socket's ball which attaches the first link. After using an allen wrench to put it back together. Again, after 20 minutes of practice on the speed bag, the swivel broke again. Judging by the construction of other speed bag swivels, this is the only swivel where this problem arises, and is likely to occur often. I would recomend this swivel only if you are getting a speed bag for a youngster (under 14), or just need one for display. If you plan on spending more than a couple hours a week messing around on a speed bag, go with the Everlast Top Professional Chain Link Swivel (Model # 4444). |
