Filling up base Where would I purchase sand to fill base?

The problem with "play sand" is that, although it's perfect for filling the Slam Man, it's VERY expensive!

I saw the sand at Brookstone first and was going to buy it. I went online to Amazon to check and see if it was available online. I bought the one at Amazon and am thrilled with it! I bought two boxes and am very happy with it! It appears to be just like the Brookstone sand and at a better price!

The base comes separately, but it is very easy to put on. You just screw the bag in. The tough part is filling the base. I bought four 60 lb bags of sand from Home Depot. I didn't know that there are different types of sand to purchase. Since the one I got seemed to be almost moist, it was really murder filling it up. The filling hole is pretty small, and I ended up having to make a small funnel and spoon it in. If you can buy sand that is dry and free flowing, you will have no problem at all. In general, the product is very well made and sturdy. I would recommend it.

You have to fill it up yourself with either water or sand I believe - it was purchased for my daughter.

I dont know what that is, but no, you dont need to buy anything else to fill up. It even comes with accessories to fill up things like soccer or beach balls.

One 50 lb bag of Playground Sand should do the trick. You can get it at most large hardware stores.

The kit we sell is the entry level sand set. Your suggestion is a good one and I will ask the manufacturer to see if they can do just that. Thanks for the question...

I dont think there is a way to fill the base, however you could possibly use a prefilled bag or two to lay across the 2 bases. GL

The fill hole is on the outer rim of the base. Looking at this base, you can't see it because it's opposite from the handle. If you fill the base with either water, or sand, plug the fill hole before you pick up the base, because if you don't the contents will empty! Hope this helps answer your question.

No I had to buy my own base- ended up getting one of those big ones you can fill with water or sand. Really nice umbrella though

You need to buy the salt and sand. Home Depot, walmart, pool stores have it for sale...

The base is sold separately. They are heavy and probably best to buy at local hardware store.

You need sand as a base to go under the liner. You can order it by the dump truck load. I think we got like 5 tons for about $100. There are some good YouTube videos on pool installation and liner installation that can answer your questions. I would suggest getting the foam cove to make life easier and provide a nicer finish. YouTube is your best resource.

It depends on location. If indoors I recommend water but be sure the seams of the base are totally sealed. Do not let anyone step on the base full or not. It will bust. If outdoors I prefer sand because of the heat. I have four if these 2in 2 out filled as I said. No problems at all. The water if used outside will evaporate and wind can blow the system over causing lots if damage.

You can purchase the propane light refills at Walmart or most any store, take the base off for access to fill port.

Any sand papper will work . You will just have to punch holes in the papper for the dust collection slots

You will want 500 to 700 pounds of sand. 10 to 14 50lb bags. We bought 14 and used 11.
