this sandbag is fine, it does not quite attach as easy to the stand as it looks in the photo. But totally a good value.

I purchased two of these bags to create ballast for a table top display to keep the wind from toppling it when we're outdoors. These worked very well. The velcro attached to the display board and the bags looked much better than the traditional canvas-style. These will get only light duty.

This bag is well designed, and seems to be well consructed, too. The long strip which can be wrapped around a light stand pole to keep the bag from sliding down a leg has a velcro flap to keep it out of the way when not in use. The pockets for weight have zippered inserts for sand -- a nice touch. That allows you to vary the weight, or swap out sand for weights, without the messy job of scooping sand out of the bag. I've seen some weight bags which seem rediculously expensive, so I'd say this one is a good deal.
