Everlast Heavy Bag Stand

I've read quite a few reviews stating that the holes don't line up or the final hole doesn't line up and it is shotty craftsmanship, and I was almost there to feeling that way then, I back tracked and started over. I took out all bolts and removed all nuts. IMPORTANT TIP: DO NOT tighten down all bolts as you line up and connect a section. Matter of fact, don't tighten down anything initially. Put the bolts through the holes and attach the nuts but do not screw them down tight. Just put it together per the instructions with the nuts and bolts provided but leave it loosely fastened down. This does two things, it 1. gets all bolts aligned with the holes as needed and 2 allows you to readjust the positioning of the arms/legs/neck of the stand to get the bolt through and aligned. Once I got all bolts in place, then I went through methodically tightening up, from bottom to top, and it was a breeze. If you have another person that can help you put it together, great. If you have problems with grip, arthritis, have issues with balancing two metal bars then I recommend please get help putting it together. I don't fit in those categories so I put it together myself and it was a snap once I backed up and started over. It's solid, well made, and will serve ou perfectly. It's about 7" tall so please have enough ceiling clearance.

I had read several reviews before buying this and several said it was easy to put together. It was indeed easy as long as you follow instructions and don't crank the bolts tight until you have ALL of them installed. I didn't follow this instruction and had to go back and loosen them to get the last brace to line up and attach. Have been using the unit with a 100 pound heavy bag for a few months now and it has held up well and is very stable, I however see the need for the pegs to add weights on the base and need to add a few because fast paced workouts can really get the bag swinging and that can make the stand start to move.

First things first. It took three weeks for this stand to get to my apartment. The seller did not provide a tracking number, so I had no idea where it was for most part. By checking the order number, I at least found out that it was suppose to be shipped by Fedex. But the day it was suppose arrive at my apartment, I got an email from the seller (BuyECDCo) saying that the package would be delayed. And for some reason, it went from being shipped by Fedex to UPS. Don't know how that happened. I had already wait two weeks for the stand to arrive, so hearing that it would be delayed further frustrated me. I understand that delays happen, but waiting three weeks for a package is ridiculous. Especially since most of the the packages I've ordered off of Amazon.com have shipped two or thee days after I've ordered them. Anyways, after finally receiving the Heavy Bag Stand, I can say that it works great. It has a nice design and it's easy to install (I did it by myself). It's pretty sturdy, if not a little wobbly. But buying some stabilizing weights might fix that. It doesn't take up a lot of space, but you should definitely make sure you have room to store it. It's pretty tall too, so I'd recommend storing it a room with a high enough ceiling. It has a nice length to it, but unfortunately the bag doesn't come up that high. It comes up to about chest length depending on how tall you are. You could probably place it on something if you want it to be higher. Or you try to find a smaller chain for your bag if possible. Also, keep in mind that once it's assembled, it's pretty heavy. If you have move to another home, I'd recommend taking it apart first. Because it's not some your going to take out of your front door once it's put together. In closing, I say that this is a pretty decent bag stand. It has it's faults, but it's I recommend it for any body looking to get into boxing. As for the seller, I don't think I'll buy from them again. Especially after how long I had to wait.

I give this product 5-stars as I think it's a great value for the price. If you're a serious fighter, you may want to consider a different/more expensive stand as this one doesn't give a ton of room for footwork. I was concerned that the side supports would be a problem for roundhouse kicks, but they aren't at all. For me, this gets the job done great! I would also recommend putting this stand on some kind of padding and adding weights to keep it secure. Pros: sturdy and easy to assemble (I'd recommend using a socket wrench vs the cheap hex wrench they provide it will cut down your assembly time a ton). I like this option because you can move the stand around and won't damage your ceiling studs. Cons: may not be high enough for very tall users. I'm 5'3 so it's not a problem, but if you're very tall you may want to consider a different option

This stand is very sturdy and built to last. There are off brands for less - but you get what you pay for! It has holders at the bottom for weights to keep the stand from wobbling (I haven't had to do that yet!). It is big, but it has to be since a 100lb bag is going to be hanging from it! Great purchase for my at home gym :)

Recommend to buy. no question about it. Needed something that would fit in my backyard, where I could just get to punching when I needed some cardio and stress relieving. I put it together in 30-45 minutes by myself. Instructions recommend for 2 people to set it up ( mainly I feel it is for setup time), so if you have that available do it. All parts are labeled, so it is really hard to mess this up. You are going to NEED, NEED, NEED, weights to put on stand or pegs. Especially once you start speeding up those punches and putting in power punches. I have two 50.lbs sand bags I got from Home Depot (one on each side) and a 25 lb. in the rear. Only that weight was good enough for me at 5'9 180 lbs with a 80 lb bag. Otherwise this stand has been fun and convenient, would recommend in terms of practicality and ease of setup.

It's sturdy and does what it is supposed to do: support the heavy bag. I prefer this option instead of supporting the bag by hanging it to a bulk head cause the basement is finished and there is gyprock on the ceiling which I fidn't feel like tampering with to support the bag. The stand provides versatility in the sense that you can move it around to another location as opposed to the bag being fixed to a ceiling of course.

Defective - base straight plate had misaligned holes so it was impossible to screw in the side base arms and the bag supports

What you see is what you get 👍

Solide et facile à assembler. Tient bien mon sac, faut mettre un peu de poids a la base pour ne pas qu'il bouge si vous taper tres fort. Très satisfait.

Was hard to put together , not all the parts fit well in place, maybe I don’t have experience in using screw, I dunno 🤷‍♀️ but in the End it turned out sturdy.
