I have a few things to say that are really important to consider when buying this product.

1) I AM A 5'2" FEMALE AROUND 120lbs. I purchased the 60" option. This thing isn't even the biggest option, but for me is pretty large!

2) I FILLED THIS THING WITH 10lbs OF Polyfill. I went off other reviews saying they used 20lbs... they must've purchased the larger size dummy. Pollyfill is working great so far. At first I tried extra, old clothing. The dummy was limp and unusable. Stuffed it tight with Polyfill and his arms actually stick up and his legs are bent nice and firm.

3) THIS THING COLLECTS HAIR! If you have animals, try to keep it off the carpet/bed/couch. Only on the mat. Regardless, I think he will collect lint and hair anyway from ones clothing. I honestly don't care too much about that. But you can even see in the photos the lint on him (and this is after I lint rolled him a bunch).

4) NOW TO ITS EFFECTIVENESS. I'm a beginner at Jiu-Jitsu and have only used this guy 2-3 times, but man... I was actually super happy to be able to drill the techniques respectively that I watched on YouTube. My routine is to watch a YouTube video, write down notes and steps, then drill it on the dummy multiple times. Listen, write and then physically do!

BECAUSE OF HIS BENT LEGS... I was able to put this dummy in my full guard and could practice armbars, triangle chokes, omoplatas, sweeps, etc. You can also mount this guy and practice attacks from there! I also took joy in just punching his face a bunch, lol.

Majority of the practice you get from this partner will be attacks. You can't really practice defense much against an unresisting partner. But man! I think it's really great for practicing and memorizing the steps for a variety of different attacks... which you can then take to the mat to practice against a real opponent.

Definitely a good buy for brand new beginner at Jiu-Jitsu. For me, at least. Who knows how I'll hold up against real people, but this guy is great for going through the steps at your own pace.

I can't say how durable this guy is because I've had him for less than a week. If anything happens with the stitching or fabric, I'll update my review! :)

The dummy is not as hard to fill as I was expecting. I filled the feet and arms with socks and other small pieces of fabric. I used t-shirts for the legs and the head. You can use anything for the torso, I used an old blanket and some old shirts. Make sure you compress the fabric as you fill. Use small pieces to fill hard to reach areas.

Good material. Good starter dummy

The product is very well made, the material, design, size, it came folded ina bag, you have to get the material to fill it and have to do it considering the weight you want it to have, feet are a bit hard to put the fill ib but once you find out the correct way is easier, I like it and will help to train and improve.

Good for drilling. Uses 25 lbs of polyfill. Put a gi on it and get to it. There's plenty of moves and counter moves you can practice solo. I recommend for anyone looking to practice in a solo setting.
