Would this be 8 to 10 bags of 25lb or 50lb sand?

We used 12 5-Gallon buckets and there was still plenty of room. I think in the description or one of the reviews it recommends a certain amount of sand.

Thank you for our interest in the Sandless Sandbags. Each bag will absorb 4 gallons of water and weigh 32 lbs. If there is anything further we can assist you with please let us know.

150 pounds #20 silica sand and do not buy cheaper sand. #20 silica sand is the specific size of the grains and necessary for good filtration. Don't be fooled by a bag that simply says for Sand Filter. Make sure you see the #20 or Grade 20 on the package as well. Can buy for 8-10 bucks per 50 pound bag.

i just transferred old bags of play sand I had out in the yard into these bags and they were 50 pound bags.. so full they hold 50 pounds.

Not sure, bought this online. Was looking for good size and this looked bigger. Pretty happy with it. Suggest you look at how much sand each holds by volume or weight.

The exact amount of weight in each bag will depend on what you put into it - gravel can easily weigh more than sand unless that sand is wet. I'd advise if using wet sand, to line the weight bags with heavy plastic first to prevent mildewing.

These bags were lousy, wouldn't hold together even with 5 lbs of sand. 50 lbs is absolutely impossible

I didn't use sand bags. I strapped a rubber coated 10lb. weight to each side of the ladder near the bottom.

I use my Ez ups for a 10x10 at a windy beach. I use only 2 bags that are 1/2 filled (total combined 40lbs of weight). Holds down very well. Each weight bag holds 40lbs of sand. That's 160lbs--a lot of weight to hold down a 10x20. I think they will work well for you.

It's not that big. My grandson is 2 yrs old. I only put 1 bag of sand in it but it probably would hold 1 1/2 - 2 bags. I don't remember the pounds of the bags but the bags are the play sand sold at Lowe's or Home Depot. This toy is meant for the child to play from the outside not sit in it and play. Hope this helps.

It doesn't. You can buy filter sand in 50lb bags from Home Depot, Lowes, tool rental companies and some pool supplies dealers. The instructions that come with the filter tell you how much to put in. The sand I purchased was $9 per bag and took 6 bags. Hope this helps.

I have an 8 lb. bag of soil and it would take probably another 4 lbs to fill it up. I put rocks in the bottom of my 2 to weigh them down as they are light and the wind could knock them over. Maybe with rocks as weight and drainage, the 8 lb. bag would work.I have ours outside at the front door and they look great! I also painted ours a bronze color.

You will need to go to a LOWES, or Home Depot, or some such store, and buy 2 50lb. bags.They should load it in your car for you. You need about 1 1/2 bags for a good amt. for children to play with.OR, if you want expensive COLORED sand, look on the WWW..........but, it IS expensive.I have this for my grandkids, and keep it on an enclosed porch, that way they can play with it even if it is raining.

I bought a 50b bag of sand and that was enough to fill just under 3 bags. So, my estimate is about 20lbs each.

It is a same ratio as sand, 1:1 Therefore you will need 6 bags total weight 300lbs. You will not be disappointed. The weight capacity should be marked on your filter. I have a 16 by 32 feet pool and the 200lbs capacity filter works just fine. I do cover the pool in the high pollen season. Unless you have a pool larger than 16 by 32, you might be ok with 200 lbs. You can experiment. You can always add more later. My pool company sells this for $80 a bag but they do put it in. When doing it yourself I had to take a cup to empty out the sand because the filter was too heavy to move. My teenage son helped. Good luck.

Will hold 4-5 50# bags and will last depending on how you set it. There is a built in calculator when you set your feeding frequencies and durations.
