Since basically all the visible support beams and I-Beams in my house are concrete or something "non-nailable" I had to buy a heavybag stand. I bought one from Wal-Marts online store, which suprisingly had the cheapest price. With the Heavy bag set & stand the total was around $220 including shipping; the shipping was also quite fast and cheap. So after a week or so of using this I injured my hand (you can probably find the thread in the martial arts section.) I never did see a doctor about that, but anyways, after recovering from the 'symptoms' I was back at hitting the heavy bag. After a good 2 weeks of punching, the frame snapped. Litterally, part of the frame snapped in half. When I punch, I punch the heavy bag and it actually hits the supporting metal legs (not very thick metal and only a 70 lb bag.) Eventually one of the metal poles just broke in half; the other is bent pretty bad. The thing will probably collapse if I punch it with full strength right now, so I can't use it for a while. I'm going to call everlast in a few days to get a replacement part.
Overall I'd say the product is mediocre, but it broke WAY too fast.
