This tripod is an incredible value for the price! Would highly recommend to anyone! Compatible with most smaller cameras, with a detachable mount! It also comes with an attachment for your phone. It’s also very sturdy, I’ve taken it fishing and camping multiple times without any issues.

This tripod did its job and is very light! I took it out on a night hike to do some astrophotography and it stayed steady even with my frequent adjustments during my session. The light weight made it perfect to hike with and I'm very pleased with the smartphone and gopro attachment pieces. My phone did not slip once! Of course I wouldn't trust this with anything heavier, but it wasn’t made for that anyway.

Overall feels pretty high quality and was worth the price but the weight of the phone makes it so that the phone wont stay perfectly flat and aligned when shooting vertically :/

This tripod is perfect for me! You get exactly what you pay for, and to me since it wasn’t that expensive I feel like the sturdiness quality is awesome. If you are wondering what you get inside of the package from what I can remember you get obviously the tripod itself. Then the extra piece that holds your phone. I wish I could change the piece that holds the phone to something a little different but otherwise it works pretty well. I like to make videos and it does the perfect angles. It’s pretty easy to move around and it collapses pretty small.

I bought this one in recent thanksgiving. Its worth a money. If you are looking for a tripod for basic usage then this will not disappoint you. Honestly I liked it. I mounted my Canon T6 without any issues. Easy to operate. I was not sure if it can withstand a projector, but it proved me wrong. I am happy that my mini projector mounts and its quite stable and sturdy. Overall I am happy!!

Recently bought a Nikon D3300 b/c I wanted to take night time photography. Needed a tripod but I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I have used this in Hawaii, Florida Keys and a few places inbetween. It locks into position and stays where you locked it. Doesn't feel cheap like some do.

Exceeds Expectations

Phenomenal! I'm just getting into photography for taking photos in a lab setting and I thought this tripod could just get me started. I was a little worried because some reviews seemed to claim this as a cheap, easily bendable/breakable device. I don't know if those people don't know their own strength or what, but this tripod exceeds all expectations.
It is very lightweight, and if you were to put too much weight on top of the base, I imagine you could bend it, but with a camera on top and responsible handling, here's what you get:
-removable mount base that comes off with a quick lever
-mobile phone adapter
-telescoping legs (they telescope in 2 places)
-telescoping base that can be raised while the camera is mounted with a crank
-levels on both the tripod legs and the camera mount
-swiveling camera mount that can be tilted sideways or back/front.
-lots of places to adjust/tighten, etc
-folded, it fits in the side pocket of a backpack.
All this said, it is lightweight plastic and might not last forever, but if you're responsible, this is a wonderful product for the money.

We needed a tripod for our reflex camera because we have left ours at home before moving. And we loved the Sunpack 58'' tripod!
Good price for good quality!
It stabilizes the camera as the expensive and heavy one we left at home. It's very light and easy to open and close.

got the item today and immediately opened to test it. I have Nikon D5200 with 18-200 MM ( that's heavy) and it was working great. took a couple of photos in the house and it came fine. setting up a tripod by reading manual can be tricky, better youtube it. Well, what can be expected at $10? its steal in this price

This tripod is great! It serves my needs and is durable. I use it with my iPhone 13 Pro at home and have taken it to the gym many times to record my sets and clients, and I’ve had it over 8 months now. I got it on special, too, for about $15 dollars. Can’t beat that!

For the price it is very modular for taking good shots and it is very stable, the only issue I have is when extended to the max I feel it can tend to tip over when a strong breeze hits it but overall, a very good and cheap tripod.
