I bought this everlast swivel a week ago along with an everlast 4210 speedbag from acadamy. I am not a boxer, and do not plan to be one. I only bought the speedbag and swivel to do something physically active that isn't as boring as running. The swivel only lasted a week till the first link (the eyelet) completely detached from the ball socket. There is a small screw inside the socket's ball which attaches the first link. After using an allen wrench to put it back together. Again, after 20 minutes of practice on the speed bag, the swivel broke again. Judging by the construction of other speed bag swivels, this is the only swivel where this problem arises, and is likely to occur often. I would recomend this swivel only if you are getting a speed bag for a youngster (under 14), or just need one for display. If you plan on spending more than a couple hours a week messing around on a speed bag, go with the Everlast Top Professional Chain Link Swivel (Model # 4444).
