Works great as a small tripod. Legs can be wrapped around a branch or fence post when outside.

If only i had zero stars to give, i would give it to this. Nothing wrong with the product. But the way best buy is selling them is wrong.
I ordered a new one, when i got my order, i see there is lots of dust and scratches on the tripod. So i returned it in the store for a replacement and faced the same issue again. When asked, they said they dont want to give me a new one

Do not order this product comes refurbish or used for some strange reason. Comes in a brown box with Dust and scratches. Very disappointed on the fact that Best Buy would send a used Product with no original box or anything. Look elsewhere for ordering this product.

Minus 3 stars for what looks like a refurbished item. The Joby website doesn’t even carry this model number. Makes me think it’s “best buy exclusive” which doesn’t fill me with confidence. We will see how it holds up.

Best Buy sent a used product. It didn't come with original packaging and the item is dusty like someone used it outdoors. One of the leg is loose alteady after one week of indoor use.

Not worth it

The quick release mount is just not sturdy enough. It’s plastic and there’s just too much room for error when you have a $1300 camera mounted on this. Even the legs are plastic! Just spend the extra money and get the pro version.

Loose Leg Sockets
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The concept is great and it worked well for a very short time. After bending the legs into different configurations a number of times, the sockets on the legs become really loose and won't hold. Once this happens there is no stability whatsoever and the product is useless. It won't even hold up my iPhone let alone a decent camera. I can't imagine putting an expense of camera on this tripod as it would fall over and break. I have bought two of these and both have ended up having the exact same problem. Despite the good reviews, the product is not durable. Unless they fix the durability issue or have a way to replace the sockets, I would never buy another one, please don't waste your money.
