Detailed review from a sore, seasoned grappler
Overall it seems quite nice. It was really easy to stuff and the shape holds up really well. I just took old clothes, cut them into tiny little pieces and filled it super tight. I saw some people saying that the shape didn't hold up, but I'm pretty sure that must be because they didn't fill the nooks and crannys with stuffing. If you don't cut up the clothing first, it leaves odd little gaps and the shape is weird, so if you can I'd cut up the clothes first, it takes a lot longer (took me about 2 hours) but I mean, you only have to do it once. It's well stitched and seems to be made pretty well, and the legs, head and torso are all pretty realistic feeling. It sits surprisingly nicely in your guard, very similar to a real partner might. I've been doing a lot of basic guard stuff and it's been pretty cool, not much different than a willing partner when it comes to guard stuff, it's probably the most useful for guard, side control and back mount drills based on the feeling of it, whereas stuff like passing and bottom half guard sweeps just feel weird on it; it's super unrealistic passing lifeless legs that fall to the floor automatically, or under hooking up from half guard on this thing. But I digress, just wanted to point out what drills are practical before you buy this thing.Unfortunately, the arms are SUPER small. They're about half the size of regular arms. I don't know if it's really a huge deal, but when you rep triangles or armbars and then go train with real people, you might be in for a surprise when their arms are twice as long as your 100 reps got you accustomed to. They're shaped well, there's a nice bend to them for Kimuras and Americanas, and it's been quite fun drilling Kimura trap ideas with it, however I just feel that the size is going to be disadvantageous when it comes to live training, and it would have been so easy to make the arms a bit longer. Incidentally, the legs are enormous on my 70 inch model, so it's like a training partner with Artem Lobov arms and Stephan Struve legs. I don't think the long legs matter, if anything they're nice to work leg positions on because they're so clear about the knee line and the foot feels fairly realistic if you want to drill heelhooks with it.Overall, this is a nice addition to have around the house if you're like me and love BJJ, catch all the fights and wish you could be at the gym more, but have kids and obligations that keep you from going as much as you'd like. Only downside is the small arms, if you can work around that, this is a solid purchase.

A great training partner!
At first glance, after I had opened the box, I was concerned with how small it looked. I am 6'1" so I need something with some sort of size to efficiently train techniques on. After filling the dummy up, it grew much bigger than I expected it would, and my complaints went away. The only I wish could be different is the length of the arms, they are a little short but I can manage so it's nothing to really cry about. The material is tough which is great because I dont want to roll with something I feel could tear easily.Stuffing it was quite easy, quick, and fun. I enjoyed watching this unfilled dummy come to life. I used a styrofoam mannequins face for the head, then stuffed polyfil around it, so it's more packed. The only issue was, I had to manually cut open a slit, that was big enough to fit the face in. I like the idea of the mannequin face because, it gives me a neck to choke. I also cut up styrofoam circles into blocks and used those as the hands. I used pool noodles for the legs, stuffed polyfil around them, then stuffed the rest of the dummy with the leftover polyfil. It only took me an hour to completely finish stuffing it.All in all, hes a great guy to practice submissions and clean up my training, for when I go to roll live. You also can do some light ground and pound with it aswell. I wouldnt go as far as using it for any kind of throws or takedowns, not that this dummy would be great for those things anyways.Also another thing I love about this guy is he's great for setting up pranks. I scared mom, dad, and sisters easily with him by just putting my clown mask over his face. Its funny to just set him in a inconspicuous corner, and watch as they unknowingly walk by, then piss their pants as they notice him.

Stuff the Legs First!
Great product for those who cannot make it to Jiu Jitsu practice each day. Great quality material, just remember not to overstuff it, it might stretch out the seams of the dummy. I use this dummy to practice Jiu Jitsu moves I learned in class and my Gracie Combatives online course.STUFF THE LEGS FIRST. My wife and I had to double team to stuff clothing into the legs of the body. However the legs are still "gumby" meaning it is not a good representation of a person with bones in their legs. I am considering opening my dummy up again and giving it a PVC skeleton. That is a project I am not looking forward to, but I am not willing to buy a stuffed dummy.4 out of 5 stars. Would be 5 if it were cheaper.

Love this guy!
This guy is really pretty cool. It was not an easy project for stuffing, good thing I had a lot of old clothes and blankets I didn't need anymore. So I guess you would say I repurposed them. I had read several posts suggesting use pool noodles to make a frame. All I've got to say about that is don't, almost impossible to stuff around them. I finally pulled them out and decided to heck with making a frame. I stuffed the legs and feet with torn up t-shirts, then I poured sand in to add extra weight to the knees. Then I stuffed the thighs, then I poured in sand to add extra weight to the rear. At that point you need to stuff the head and the arms, saving the body to last. I poured sand into the hands then stuffed the arms and head. Then I ran out of t-shirts and had to move on to the blankets. I stuffed the body halfway, then I poured in 10 pounds of rice and stuffed the rest of the body. Then dummy maintains a seated position without an internal frame.

Does not come with filler
Product was as advertised, but we expected it to come pre-filled, instead it came wrapped in tape to be as small as possible so the tape actually damaged some of the material. Would not recommend; best to go to a store and pick it out.

Right foot sown on back to front
Received item as described until I started filling it, only to find right foot was sown on back to front. Had to unpick and resow the correct way. Very annoying. Poor QC.
