My first thought was to pick up some gallon Ziploc bags and a big sack of sand from the local home improvement store, but then it occurred to me that we’d be surrounded by various types of dirt and sand at our next camp, so why buy sand? On our recent New Year camping trip, I took a bunch of these sand bags and a box of Ziploc bags along with my shovel to a nearby sandy wash. It took about ten minutes to fill them all up and they turned out perfectly! I was still kind of skeptical about using the Ziploc bags as liners, since these sand bags are kind of rubberized and would probably contain the sand just fine. But it turned out to be the wettest trip we’ve ever taken (probably three inches in just one storm). These bags would have been absolutely destroyed by that much rain.
Last weekend we camped again and the bags had held up just fine. Even though they had been completely soaked, the bags were perfectly dry without even any stanky odor and the sand was all intact inside.
I work for an entertainment company and I noticed someone had left some sand bags like these laying out on the lot for a couple of months. Whether it was from neglect or someone ran over them, a couple of them had torn open so I could see what was inside. Even our pro staff had used plastic bags inside. I was surprised to see that they had used dirt with so much aggregate though (more like the sand/gravel mix you’d add to cement to make concrete). I think the aggregate was so sharp that it caused the bags to wear out sooner than they should. I would make sure to only fill these with sand, not gravel.
With these, I didnt fill them. I fly with them empty at almost no additional luggage weight, and either pick up a bag of play sand ($7) from home depot on my travel day when I arrive in town, or have my assistant fill them with landscaping rocks from the shoot location exterior the first morning. Just dump them back out before packing for the airport.
These have held up extremely well considering they are not designed to be opened and closed as much as I do them. Im buying two more packs to give to assistants I use regularly in certain cities to fill and leave with them. If I use them twice and they run off with them, Im still money ahead on the rental fees I would have paid..
Physically they feel fairly sturdy. The bag and webbing all feel sufficient for my needs. As others have pointed out, the zips don't feel great and I'm sure that some usage patterns would break them quickly. For my use the second zip is redundant but it could add a little extra security for some.
In use I'll start by indicating what I did with them. I am very much averse to spilling sand everywhere so I mitigated that risk two ways. First of all, instead of sand I used (cleaned/seived) pea gravel as a weight. It costs about $1 per lb and is far less likely to leak through seams etc. Secondly I placed said gravel in quart ziplock bags (3 lb a piece). With the gravel in ziplocks in these sand bags I feel safe using them almost anywhere. With 12lb in them (2 x 3 lb bags per side) they weigh down my stands well and function well as counterweights for my boom. I haven't actually tried just draping them over the stand's legs but have rather attached them in various other ways via the handles (to make sure they can't slip off). To this end they have worked well.
Having scanned some of the negative reviews I'll respond to a few criticisms I've seen. First of all the methods I enumerated above mitigate a lot of the risk of sand leakage. To say these are no better than a ziplock bag is quite unfair. Having a handle makes them far more versatile and I'd feel far more comfortable laying these over a stand leg than a gallon ziplock bag. The zips definitely feel weak and if you are going to be constantly filling/emptying them I believe that may become a problem but if you going to "fill once, use many" then you may not have an issue. Finally for anyone complaining that these don't contain sand: fully filled the set of 4 weigh nearly 50lb; not a very shipping friendly size. Sand or other filling material is very cheap and you are far better served acquiring it locally.
Overall these do what I expect. If you care tremendously about long term durability when repeatedly refilled or used without a liner, perhaps look elsewhere. If you line them and leave them filled then you'll probably be fine.
