Canopy Weights Bag Leg Weight for Pop up Canopy Tent, Sand Bags for Patio Umbrella Instant Outdoor Sun Shelter (4 Pack - White)...

I have had a set of these weights in place for a little over a week. I was in need of something to keep the pool umbrellas from flying out of the pool deck sockets. This product seemed reasonably priced. Just happened to be walking by my recycling bin when I noticed the empty SAM'S club vinegar containers. Turns out they fit the bags like a glove. Filled the containers with sand and slid them into the new white bags. This should help prolong the life of the bag and keep from getting funky from the rain - as apposed to simply filling the bags with sand. Hopefully the plastic containers will reinforce the weights (distributing the weight equally on the seams) plus keep the bags over-all free of excessive moisture. Only time will tell if it works out and was a wise purchase.

Pros: Strong Hook and Loop Straps, Substantial Material, Good Closures, Many Hook and Loop Straps. Cons: Would be nice if the diameter was about 2-3 inches larger Use: As designed, to hold down tent or canopy, Bike Panniers for Mountain Bike Observations: So, I bought these for a completely alternate use - Bike Panniers. I have a traveling mountain bike that I use vs hiking. I do not need huge luggage sized Panniers for overnight and short stay camping and these were perfect. I can put two on each side of my rear luggage rack, one on the down or main tube, and one on the handle bar. I can easily carry food and some essentials without the bulk of larger panniers. I can also attach them to my Backpack and use them for additional storage on it. They appear to be made of waterproof material but the hook and loop closure would definitely allow water in eventually, during a hard rain or deep river crossing. My only wish, is that these were about 2-3 inches greater in diameter. Then they would be perfect for my alternate use. Still a great addition to my travel bike.

The bags are made of sturdy canvas and you are able to use what ever you want to for weight , has velcro encloser, I used them to hold down a sun shade curtain that i hung from a curtain rod.

Worked great for holding down the steel tripod legs for my backdrop stand. I liked that these sandbags look nicely finished, making them presentable enough for indoor use.

Used for my new popup tent. Let's see how long the stitching holds up when full of sand. So far so good
