reason i didn't get a "real" bag hanging from the ceiling is i wasn't allowed to drill holes into the ceiling lol. so i got this instead. JUNK!! well maybe not total junk, it'll do for now. i punch pretty ferociously and find i'm moving the whole unit, like 3 feet in one direction after 1min of punching. so after 1min i have to go to the opposite side to move the unit back to where it was before. it provides decent resistance, but you're moving the unit for that resistance. this would make a great training unit though, if you're just lightly tapping the bag with your fist, or also for kickboxing.

so not something i'd recommend...a real bag is much better if you're allowed to put holes into your ceiling in your house haha

Too bad you don't prefer this type of bag. I have several in my school and really enjoy them despite the movement. I have used traditional bags in the past and don't mind the movement at all. I guess I'm used to it. Have you tried to add more water to increase the weight?

      The Happy Tart review

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my...

      The Happy Tart review

      You would think any business would see the wisdom of honoring a $50 gift certificate on the basis of customer satisfaction alone, apart from any questions about software glitches.

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...
