Review on ๐ŸฅŠ MaxxMMA Water/Air Heavy Bag: Ultimate Training Experience for MMA Enthusiasts by Mark Bennett

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Worst bag on the planet

I'm surprised Revane would bend over backwards to sell something so thoughtlessly designed, poorly constructed and ultimately useless. It comes as an empty pouch and the idea is to fill it with varying amounts of air and water, allowing the user to change the weight of the pouch. To fill it you need to remove the top part of the bag. Right off the bat, it's stupid. Heavy bags are heavy and can withstand tremendous forces of destruction even when used properly. They don't design something like this to take apart and put back together like Lego. I gasped as I looked into the bag. Both the plastic air and water chambers proved to be thin-walled and proved to be thin-walled. There are no problems filling the air chambers, but come on, these are glorified balloons. What the manufacturer gave me to fill the water tank with was a cheap hose that screwed onto the faucet. The other end of the hose had to be inserted into the hole in the water tank. And when I say "hole" I mean a hole (for example, it didn't have a check valve or a watertight fastener). The water has reached a certain pressure in the chamber. and the hose just flew out of the hole, filled a heavy sack with water and started flooding my basement. Using some modified shims I made and storing the hose in a bag, I was only able to fill the bag about 3/4 full before the pressure exceeded my homemade gear and water started splashing around the hose. Frustrated, I packed everything back up and hung up my bag. Can you imagine what it's like to hit a water bag? Well, you have it because it actually is exactly what it looks like. Worst bag I have ever used in my life.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • So-so
