    Flimsy item does not hold camera like I expected it to, it is also made of poor quality and the top that secures camera broke the first month I had it.

    We needed something to attach our GoPro Hero to a softball field fence. The salesman recommended this; didn't work, so returned.

    After reading several reviews and because it was recommended by the sales person at Best Buy I went ahead and purchased the gorillapod. It broke after a few uses! I didn't have to chance to wrap the gorilla pod around anything before it broke! And it's too late to return/exchange. What a waste of money!

    If you have a "professional" camera, Do not bother trying to put that on this thing. It's much too heavy. It simply can't hold the weight of a nice lens, This would be great for a tiny point and shoot camera or a go pro or something, but not really for a DSLR type camera.

    I don't recommend this product. The part that screws onto your camera, got super lose and after about 2 weeks of light use of it, it wouldn't hold up the camera at all. Waste of money and too late to return so I recommend getting something more reliable.

    I know it says for cameras and camcorders, but I thought it might work with the mount I got for my iPhone. It is not strong enough to balance it.

    The top part started to get loose after the first day of use. Ended up returning for the bigger one and like it better than this one.

    Best little Tripod

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is the best tripod for your point and shot cameras. Easy to use, can wrap around anything. No need to ask others to take a photo for you. Very sturdy too unlike the other simple slim line tripods.
