Quality & Very Functional

November 30, 2024

Love the quality & ease of use of these bags. This is my second order, I use them for holding down netting over my Koi pond. Some may think these are a little pricey, but in this day and age I firmly believe you get what you pay for. These are not throw away after a couple of use bags, and love how easy they are to empty & refill with the velcro and the handles are solid - LOVE THEM!

Merchant Response:Wow. Thanks for the kind words John! We have steadily made small improvements on the tube sandbag line for almost 20 years. Little things, like bar-tack stitching to reinforce every corner, typically go unnoticed. Over time those small improvements have added up to a product we are very proud of. Thank you for the review.

I purchased 10 bags a year ago - use the heck out of them. Very good product. Liked them so much I bought more when I had another need.

Perfect Solution

April 17, 2024

We have had a problem with street storm water running into our gravel driveway and washing it out. We placed these sandbags along the driveway before the last storm warning and they worked very well. We appreciate the handles and ease of use. We've only had them a few weeks and leave them in the yard (out of sight and sun) and hope they last.

The tube style bags worked perfect when we had the heavy rains this Winter!!! Kept every thing dry in our garage!!

Pros

You can form the bags around what open space needs to be blocked!! Worked perfect!!

Cons

None

Quality is top notch! Really solid product!

December 23, 2023

The craftsmanship is beautiful. The Velcro is solid and the handles makes it so easy to move. We had a couple of big 50 pound bags of sand which were impossible to move around we used to fill our new sandbags and it’s a huge difference.

My first order was just to try out the product. It worked well during the next hurricane, so I ordered again. The tube bags worked far better than traditional sandbags. So I ordered even more. After each hurricane event I spread all the tube bags out in the sun on a dark blue tarp to dry out. Once dried I store them in my shed. My original order of tube bags are green, next order orange and this year’s order beige. Each bar weighs 20 pounds +/- so they are easy to carry and move around.

I have used sandbox sand from big box stores to fill the bags.

Pros

Use year after year. My 4 year old bags are just as good as my new ones.

Great product!

November 10, 2023

We have been using these bags for a couple months and they are great.We use compactor bags as a liner for the sand and fill them just enough to conform to uneven surfaces.We make them heavy enough for holding down rubber drain covers while pressure washing.I will be buying more.Also they have a handle/strap which makes them easy to carry.

Best Sanmdbags EVER

October 10, 2023

After trying other sandbags, The canvas sandbags from the sandbag store are far and away the best. The strength and durability and life of the canvas bags are unsurpassed. Also, the handles on the side makes them easy to pick up and transport.

Pros

Strength
Durable
Long life
Handles
Easy to fill

Cons

No Cons
I need more...

Well made product

May 18, 2023

I purchased the bags to hold down a solarizing tarp. They are doing a fine job. They are well made and easy to fill. I purchased some playground sand from Home Depot. The velcro is super tight and keeps the sand from spilling.

By CharlieB

The two strap handles are a nice touch.

April 11, 2023

I puchased the sandbags more to keep cold air from flowing into the base of a very large fiberglass enclosure that covers a well, electric panel, and large water filter outside my home than flood water.

Pros

Light weight and flexible. Easy to position around irregular shapes.

Cons

Traditional sandbags are easily stacked to create high and stable barriers. Narrow cylindrical tubes, if stacked, are likely neither. One is better than the other depending on job requirements.

By Sam

Worked well as advertised!

April 10, 2023

Although having to order of 10 when I only needed one wasn't desireable, the bag is of high quality material and well designed for the purpose I had in mind. It worked great during what was a record rainy season for our state.

36" Tube Sandbags

March 28, 2023

I ordered the 36" Tube Sandbags (black), Thursday March 23rd at 9:00 pm. They were delivered Saturday March 25th by 10:00 am. I purchased these to "recycle" the sand from the 60lb sand tubes I use for weight in my Pick up truck during the winter. Those tubes fall apart after one or two seasons. I don't think that will happen with these. Very well made product! It would be nice if they held a little more sand but the lighter weight combined with the carry handles make them easier to load and unload from my truck and 10 of them should be plenty for traction. Made in USA. Fast delivery and quality you can see and feel.

Pros

Well made, fast shipping and made in USA.

Cons

For my purpose I would like to see the tubes made wider to hold more sand but a 10 pack should still be plenty of weight.

Recycle bin weights

June 10, 2022

This a been a wonderful purchase for me to weight down 96 gallon receptacles for curbside recycle service in West Texas winds. The product quality is great and would recommend any to purchase American made sand bags that will last. However, the customer service is over the top. In a post Covid most companies have an at best below average support. The Sandbag Store is the standard that all companies should follow.

Pros

Great quality products.
Top class customer service

Cons

Thanks for the kind words Ryan!

Tube sandbag

June 4, 2022

It’s been so windy in SD that I needed something to place over the feet on my 2x4 boards, which I put my letters and graphics into, to keep it from tipping over. These tube bag are easy to fill, carry, and store.

By Dick

very well made and do the job

January 20, 2022

My garage floor and driveway are basically on the same plane. When we get heavy rain, the water finds its way into the garage. I use the bags as a temp dyke and it does the job. When the rain is over I can easily move to the bags. They have handles. Also, the bags seem to be waterproof. I've had for over a year and never had to replace the sand. I live in the northeast and they are flexible even in the cold weather.

LOVE these sand bags

October 26, 2021

We bought the 24" bags a few years ago. I filled them FULL! OH DUH I think they work better partly full,
at last to stop rain water. They have been a garage saver for flooding. however the grout between tiles let the rain slip under the very tight bags.
Now, the "straw-man" water divertor has been replaced by the 36" new bags!
We will fill them @ half + full so they can mold to the walk-ways.
LOVE these bags, they wear like iron. We keep them under our patio deck out of the sun.
they are like new! !! THANK YOU SANDBAG STORE!!
,

Pros

clean, look nice, get the water diverted, down the walk way, NOT in garage.
Easy to move, & remove

Cons

0 cons, love them!

I just received my ten five foot tubes today ( sat 19 Jun ). We filled 3 each with sand Had to put them out as it was already raining. I carried one about 30 ft and a handle ripped loose on one side already. Hope these are as good as they are advertised. I will let you know more after used a couple days

Thanks

We have sent you a replacement bag and added an inspection step to the handle attachment line to ensure handle integrity going forward. Please accept our apologies and thank you for your service to our country. Respectfully, Chris Haas President, Founder

Terrific! Worth every penny

February 14, 2021

I've got a converted garage with an uneven slab and I needed something to help keep water out. These fit the bill perfectly and they look great. Couldn't find them anywhere else. Glad I came upon this site. Oh yeah...super fast delivery too. Thanks, Sandbag Store!

By Michael

A very practical solution...

January 31, 2021

I have a bizarre flooding situation. I can't keep all the flooding out of my garage, but once the water gets in, I can control where it goes and get it out of there before everything gets damaged. They are much easier to handle than my other, standard sand bags and lets me accomplish the task at hand with fewer sand bags. Couldn't be happier!

Pros

Handles for easy carrying.
Ability to control the flow of water with its tubular shape.
Requires fewer sand bags so you have less strain on your back!

Unique design but needs improvement

January 9, 2021

The bags seem well constructed and hold at least the stated amount of sand. I bought them for the handles. Unfortunately, the handles are the same size as the bag so there is no space to put your fingers let alone your hands through them. They are good bags but don't buy them for the handles.

Merchant Response:Thanks for the great feedback! There is a purpose for the handles to be even with the bag fabric - tube sandbags can be a serious trip hazard if the handles formed loops above the bag. Since sand is generally soft, and the bags are designed to be filled slightly less than completely full, the handles should be usable. If seeking a bag with a large sturdy loop handle, customers can consider Saddle Sandbags. Again we appreciate the review and are always open to these great ideas and honest feedback. Respectfully, Chris Haas President & Founder

Pros

Durable

Tube Sandbags

December 9, 2020

The handles need to be longer as when the tubes are full it's hard to get your fingers under them. Overall, a great product and I will probably be buying more. A question, can they be used to pin a silo tarp instead of using sawdust or dirt?

By James P.

Sexy sandbags!

December 5, 2020

I wanted something nice to hold down the bottom of the clear plastic tarps on my patio cover. Regular, poly-based sandbags weren't going to cut it. Then I found these - the perfect size and very attractive. The seem very high quality and should last for several seasons.

Pros

Heavy duty material
Attractive
Nice color options
Perfect size for my needs

Cons

Kind of pricey!

By Where L.

Excellent Product!

Exactly what we were looking for to secure vases in transport for our flower business. Thank you for the speedy delivery!

By Richard

Appears to be well-built

December 2, 2020

Just got them and filled with sand. Easy to do, and the Velcro does a good job of closing the end. The bags appear to be well-built, and the material feels tough. Planning on ordering another set.

By Tom B.

Serves the purpose

November 19, 2020

Bought a box of these for ballast for my truck in the winter - hopefully this will be a lifetime supply. They're doing the job so far. My only gripe is they're made of pretty thin material, but since it's nylon, maybe that's OK? They're not going to be tossed around, just moved out of the bed in the Spring.

Merchant Response:Thanks for the review Tom. The fabric is the best marine-grade fabric for this use we could find. If you have any trouble over the next three years, please contact me directly for free replacements. Respectfully, Chris Haas President, Founder

Pros

Good value for the money.

Cons

Made of thin(ish) material.
