Everlast P00001266 Powercore Free Standing Indoor Rounded Heavy Duty Fitness Training Punching Bag

The only bad thing is putting all that sand in it. I do think it should be more sturdy when it comes to adjusting the height for the cooking. It looks easy to adjust but it really doesn't stay it falls down a lot but my son doesn't care it's very well worth the money I thought well may be should've been a little cheaper but It's good quality

I wanted to like this thing, because it was an affordable piece of striking equipment. I'll review it for its merits as such first: You fill the base with bags of gravel or sand. Do not fill it with water. It advertises that you're free to do this, but you're also free to pour wet cement down your sink drain. Not a good idea. Once you do so, and manage to get the bag to stand at any height - not terribly easy owing to the laddered construction of the spine - that is, the notched plastic pillar the "bag" sits around - it'll be too low. I'm just over 64 inches tall, superfly weight, and this thing is too short for me. I have it at the second highest position. The highest position will not hold given the molding of the ladder. It's just not built to fit into that slot. Being made a sort of polystyrene or something similar, it doesn't give too much, not even after two months of continuous use. This can be a good thing, as it encourages you to pop your strikes back, rather than try to dig through it. If you're trying for more a style of punching through a target, that's still feasible, it just demands better hand and wrist posture to avoid injury. In that sense, this would be a simple and effective training tool, and a good addition to a home gym. Although I'd wager it's too short be of any use to anyone but a child. And you probably don't want your child to use this. I think it's a polystyrene core, as I said, sheathed in a PVC shell with the Everlast logo on it. Somehow, this managed to necessitate a Prop 65 warning. I know PVC can be made poorly and off-gas some nasty chemicals, but I also know that that's less and less true as we have gotten better at making PVC. My guess is they've added phthalates or lead to the compound, earning them the warning. Want some cancer with your exercise? Of course, that's just a Prop 65 warning, everything is toxic, enjoy life, you'll be fine, etc... The plastic core, however, whether it's entire nontoxic or not, is absolutely shredded. To reiterate, I am very small. I do not have a lot of striking power. And yet after two months of use that was not continuous (this thing is not a joy, after all), maybe clocking in a very liberal estimate of 5 hours of total use, the core sheds a cloud of microplastic dust every time I hit it. Every time I tap it. This is stored indoors in proper conditions, not exposed to sunlight, nothing. It's just made terribly in every regard. Other reviews talk about the base, which is made with the attention to detail that you might expect from a walrus. I should hope I don't need to expound on that. Please, please don't buy this. I bought this is December, and so I'd love to return this for a refund, but if I can't, maybe I can at least dissuade some other potential buyers from wasting their time, money, and energy.

This thing was not worth a penny because it broke within a few months and it wasn’t used that much. Don’t buy save your money.

I am new to boxing / stress relief and bought the free standing heavy bag from everlast. I put 300lbs of sand in the bottom and it’s real hard to move it around. It is staying on the carpet, without a rubber matt underneath. Assembly was easy, but the provided tool is to short and there is no information, which bit size you should use on a ratchet (7/32 Allen wrench). Did my first workout today and really liked to hit the bag. I can’t say how long it will last for my home gym, but I guess long. I am 5ft 9 and am almost at the top end of the bag, in the highest position. Edit 10/21/2021: it just broke, after only two weeks, hopefully the customer service will take care of it. Edit 10/22/2021: customer support sent out the damaged part, which will take 5 to 7 business days to arrive. Edit 10/26/2021: got the new tube today. A tracking number wasn’t supplied, but it was quick, Friday to Tuesday.

Packaging was one simple square box with everything in it. Assembly of the post and bag was easy and took only 15 minutes. I had read other reviews about the post to base assembly being difficult but did not run into anything too difficult. Only 1 of 16 bolts had trouble starting but you can bend the base around while placing bolts which help align bolts to holes better. I also read reviews stating the base material ended up too light and that there was movement of the unit while working out. I used stonedust instead of sand and have no issues punching and kicking with full force. I am 6’ 230lb so have some weight behind large strikes. No issues other than moving it is now difficult because base is so heavy. I do not recommend using water at all in base as it looks to be not completely sealed. I would expect spillage. Quality of foam and outer cover seems high. No issues. This might not be a stand and bag for a professional but it’s perfectly fine for enthusiastic amateurs.

Very nice

Excelente producto. Lo que esperaba en cuanto precio-calidad. Se puede llenar con agua o arena. Se va moviendo con los golpes, pero nada más le pegas en otra dirección y lo acomodas... con un tapete mejora la estabilidad. No es para practicar potencia.

👍

Al principio no pensaba en comprarlo porque vi algunas reseñas en youtube en las que decían que se salía y que se caía. Se puso a muy buen precio y no ha defraudado. Lo he llenado con 110kg de arena secante. Y, teniendo en cuenta que peso 100kg, por más fuerte que le doy, no temo tirarlo. Evidentemente tal vez no es para un entrenamiento profesional, pero para hacer boxeo en casa va perfecto. El rebote es muy natural y rápido, y los materiales no parecen que se vayan a desgastar. Además, que se pueda graduar en altura es perfecto para entrenar con mi mujer. Lo combiné con la comba de velocidad de everlast y los paos.

Il prodotto non è niente male, quando lo riempite di acqua sarà un po’ difficile spostarlo, ma potreste vedere anche quello come un allenamento prima di iniziare a boxarlo. Il problema è che emana davvero un bruttissimo odore di plastica/gomma. Sembra quasi da copertone bruciato. Impesta la stanza in cui viene messo e anche lavandolo continua a puzzare. Proverò a metterlo fuori in balcone per qualche giorno sperando smetta di puzzare così tanto perché è davvero insopportabile tenerlo in casa.

All you gotta do is Add Velcro on the bottom portion before you assemble it (if you’re using it on a carpet) and I swear to you, it will not move anywhere on you under those 300lb. However the hardware does loosen up periodically and water sealing is a problem, you can see it slowly seeping through the cracks. Would work better with the sand.
