This is a great platform to start off with because of the great value. The platform comes with a U type swivel which is great for "Boxing" style speed bagging hitting from the front. If you are into "Bible" boxing as seen on this DVD: TITLE Speed Bag Bible (DVD), then you might want to consider a ball swivel or a higher grade swivel."
"One thing I want to make note is that because of the upper brace, the amount of upward height adjustment is limited even on the highest setting. We are short.. 5'1" to 5'4" and I think the highest adjustment was the only setting we can use."
"This is a great speed bag platform for extra or ultra small speed bags."
"it's flimsy, idk I just stuck it in one of those holes on the right side, i have no idea if it's even doing anything. PROS. -came with a pro style swivel (upon reading the reviews i had already purchased a separate pro style swivel because i thought this was going to come with a crappy one). -despite me not even being able to tighten one of the knobs (bottom right), it still feels secure. -50 lb sandbag on top and the noise and vibration goes down, and it just "feels" smoother. gets 3 stars from me, i'm not particularly sure if i would ever buy this unit again if i needed another speedbag.."
"For the price this is definitely a great product."

"Again, this product is holding up my 100lb heavy bag from a wood beam in my garage and is doing just what I need!"
"You can't get a 5/16ths carabiner in there without undoing the bolt, and supporting the weight of the entire bag."
"The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because when my husband first installed it, the top of one of the screws broke off."
"The bolts are pretty thick, so I recommend drilling pilot holes, so that the wood doesn't split... (especially if you're installing on a thin piece like a 2x4). I used a ratchet and socket to tighten the bolts the majority of the way, however my socket size was a little off so I had to finish the job with am adjustable wrench."
"I got a 2x8 and had it cut into two 5" pieces to screw parallel against the joists, and then another 14" piece to go on top of those and fill the gap between joists (this is the piece that holds the hanger)."
"This has been holding my 100lb mma bag for about 6 months now w/ daily use, and is holding up really strong."
"My punching bag hook, as probably with any other, slided (slid) to one end and thus pulled on the bracket unevenly."

"This swivel is GREAT!! A little loud but that's only because of the bounce board."
"A good, sturdy piece of hardware."
"Although technically it worked fine, I couldn't build up any speed or rhythm."
"I installed the swivel on an Everlast 2-in-1 stand holding this and a heavy bag. The stand was originally equipped with a plastic ball-in-socket-style speedbag swivel (which was awful), but with this upgrade, the stand is bad frickin' ass now!"
"Punching my speed bag straight on seems to work very well but to change up and hit it to the side the bag wants to slide on the big hook vs turning directions."
"I bought the Century dual boxing bag frame, and I'm really glad I bought this swivel- it's much better than the one that came with the stand."
"Not to make this sound wrong, but I'm not a big fan of Everlast, especially when it comes to gloves or wraps, but I do own a heavy bag, stand, speed bag, AND NOW this swivel from Everlast."
Best Punching Bag Floor Anchors
Save the trouble of drilling a hole on the concrete, and having a hook sticking out of the floor, with this top quality made in USA Outslayer sand bag. Perfect for Stabilizing your boxing heavy bag and double end ball.
Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"Like everything from OutSlayer, this bag anchor is a top shelf product that's made of the same super-tough shell material as their seemingly indestructible heavy bags that are made for professional boxers. The bag was easy enough to fill with a 50 lb bag of sand. The strap that attaches the metal D-ring to the bag is made of the same shell material as the rest of the bag. It performs just as well with my light 12 oz air filled double end bag as it does with my 20 lb cloth filled Outslayer double end bag. When roundhouse kicking my bag anchored 65 lb heavy bag (using my Outslayer shin guards) it does unfortunately move around a bit, but that's inevitably due to physics rather than to any deficit in the anchor bag."
"One kick or punch is handled fine, but as soon as a quick combination is used, the bag just moves out of control. This anchor bag is perfect because it is round, so it stays out of the way, it is low profile and holds 50 pounds or more of sand very well."
"I had no issues getting a garbage bag into the anchor bag and then filling with sand."
"I'm using it with a hundred pound Thai bag, and it has greatly reduced the swing for all manner of strikes."
"Follow the included recommendation and line it with a trash bag and cram as much all purpose sand as you can, tie up the liner, zip her up and it's ready in 15 minutes."
"I have had this anchor for a little while with no signs of tearing or any abuse at all for that matter."
"There is a solid rubber bungee cord included to attach anchor bag to your heavy bag. put the plastic bag inside the anchor bag before filling, then as you fill, spread the sand around to evenly fill-out the anchor bag."
"I would recommend this product to anyone who has a heavy bag and is in need of an anchor."

Find Best Price at Amazon"When affixing brackets to wall, consider the adjustable height range needed including your speed bag. Purchase a cheap clip ($2) at hardware store to affix bag to swivel. 4. Tools need for installation: Measuring Tape, Pencil, Level, Drill + bit for pilot holes, Socket for bolts, Allen wrench (included), Ladder. 5. Future upgrades: Everlast Swivel when needed, the OEM swivel is working fine now. PS: You might buy hand wraps to get started with your speed bag."
"This caused significant play, but problem was easily remedied by adding 2 additional washers (not included) below red wing nuts. Also, the support for the board is not flat, so as you tighten the bolts the board/metal brackets must flex so that they can be joined."
"When mounted, the platform sits very snuggly on the wall (no vibrating or jostling around)."
"This is a fantastic speed bag."
"Install - Be aware that you must have tools to install this product. Back to the product itself - the reviews for this product are accurate, although some people knocked it due to the fact that tools are involved."
"You'd need to spend several hundred more dollars to get something of the equivalent quality and you'd also likely have MDF board rather than wood."
"Great platform."
"Not a fan of chain swivels in general this particular one cannot be described as bad, it’s downright horrible."

"I purchased this exact same heavy bag from a box store's website and just wanted to clarify a few misconceptions. Most likely, you'll either buy a freestand that needs to be anchored with weights so it doesn't move, or you're going to screw a hook into a load bearing support. Unless you have a room to spare or an unused basement, a punching bag is a big investment in space. The bag itself it pretty heavy duty, with a solid exterior and good stitching."
"If you use the gloves and hand wraps that come with this you will almost certainly injure yourself."
"You'll need to purchase a lag screw-eye or bag hanger bracket to hang the bag from a ceiling joist, but the bag does come with the Everlast WBSWIVEL swivel and chain assembly that includes a steel swivel-eye, three spring-loaded carabiners and a 16-1/2" long hanging chain. The bag also comes with the Everlast 4691 21" elasticized bungee cord that can connect from the loop on the bottom of the bag to a weight plate or something similar on the floor to help reduce bag swing."
"PRO: 1:) bag surface has lasted under daily use for a 150lb male experienced MMA user."
"2 of the 4 straps on the bag have already broken in 4 months... pretty disappointed in the stiching."
"It was great until the strap broke."
"The top of the bag is secured by a zipper."
