    Good idea but needs major improvements

    The screws on this became loose as the stick is expanded. I didn’t realize this and a screw fell out while I was on a glacier and now the stick is not usable. For this price and the fact that gopros are used for extreme sports I shouldn’t have to continuously check if pieces are falling off the equipment. (I told my friend about this and it has happened to her twice as well, each on different hinges). Additionally if you tighten the screw you then can’t open the stick.. could break easily if you aren’t careful with it.

    This isn't a bad extension pole, it's just not as useful as I expected. The tripod is ehh. The folding pole isn't as nice as telescoping extension pole. It is functional but could be better.

    Overpriced. When you take the tripod out of the handle and attach the camera, it keeps tipping over. It's too flimsy for the rest of the extension arm.

    I didn't have time to shop around before my trip. I found out about a lot of cool accessories that others had while at the dive resort. Wished I had waited to see what else was possible.

    It is my fault, I should have researched it but there is no strap that comes with this stick. I had to go buy one to add to this strap. So beware. But other than that, its good~

    Poor Design Quality

    I purchased this device knowing full well that many others had complained about losing the screw that attaches the handle to the 3-way mount. I thought the people writing the reviews were careless and I wouldn't be. I was fanatical about keeping the screw tight to be sure I didn't lose my expensive new GoPro camera. Sitting on a catamaran in Grand Cayman I looked down and the screw had fallen out and the rest of the stick, along with my GoPro camera, was on sitting on the bottom of the ocean. Fortunately we were anchored and the water was only 10-12 feet deep and I was able to retrieve the camera, but not the screw. It disappeared into the coral reef. I did not expect to have this problem because of how careful I was with keep things tight. You'll lose it in an instant when you're not paying attention and, if you're lucky like I was, you'll not lose your expensive camera. I cannot recommend this device to anyone.

    I don't know if I would have been better off just purchasing a $20 tripod. Did not do what I thought it would do and the tripod inside is only got cheap plastic legs.

    Very upset. It didn't work for me at all. I tried using it and it didn't even function with my NEW GoPro. I should have read the reviews before I decided to buy it.

    overall good design but felt that extension arm is flimsy, could have been made out of a more durable material for the price.

    It's ok. It has all the stuff as advertised. But it's nothing special. I'd say you can get it a lot cheaper without the articulation and it would be just fine.

    Compact with not having to carry individual pieces. Down fall is not as sturdy as individual pieces.

    You’re suppose to be able to use it multiple ways but still trying to figure out how to use it. Directions would have been nice.

    I loved this because it was able to get a lot of use out of it. The tri-pod was a bit on the cheap side and feels as if the legs are going to break.

    This is another useful accessory for the GO Pro camera. It is a must-have! It's just too bad some of these accessories don't come with the camera!

    It’s a good concept but does not work the way I had hoped. The way it extends, while nice, makes it bulky.

    Ehh. Was not the best device. Kind of clunky, tri-pod base was very tipsy.
