The bag is about as small as heavy bags get. Make no mistake, it's definitely a heavy bag. I had to use all my strength to hang it. The bag isn't plastic. It's more like denim. Very tough. Stitching seems like it may fail in a few years, but maybe not.
The hardware for hanging seems appropriate. I hang mine from a 2x10 ceiling joist about a foot away from my main I beam support for the house. It uses 4 thick lag screws. When I use it, my wife says the whole house shakes and it hasn't fallen. I think she's exaggerating. I'm not Mike Tyson. I don't secure the bottom, so it can swing a couple of feet at the bottom.
The jump rope is plastic junk.
The gloves are a joke. I don't know how many oz they are, but they feel like 4 oz. There's almost no padding. You can use them, but your knuckles may be sore after 5 or so minutes of hard punching. I suggest getting real gloves like 12 oz or heavier. The wraps are pretty standard.
I wanted something inexpensive and not too heavy and I got it. The kids love kicking and punching it.

Its a pretty good product. It is expensive, but if you are willing to cough up the money, it'll be worth it.
Great Bag at a Great Price.This bag seems to be a bit wider than the Everlasts I use at the gym. I've trained on Everlast vinyl bags at the gym, and I've used my buddy's UFC MMA Heavy Bag, and the Everlast MMA Heavy Bag.Here's my annalysis of these products:
