Less quality than my previous Sunpak

I like it because the price is at least reasonable and the item is lightweight and useful.
However, comparing it to my older Sunpak of similar model and/or design, this one
- seems less durable;
- its color easily faded; and
- almost all parts seems to be of less quality.
I would still recommend it to those who needs an affordable lightweight tripod

I use this tripod for my camcorders mostly. It is not really made stable enough for DSLR's or Mirrorless.

I like the price at the time I bought it during Member or Deal of the Day for $19.99. Just needed a basic tripod and it gave me extra features and height. A QR code for assembly video clip would have been great as I’m not patient to read a small folded manual. More solid feeling materials would be a great improvment but for value and function for the price, great deal and timing!

I purchased the Sunapak -Platinumplus 5858D 58" Tripod - to use for Youtube videos after our other tripod lost a leg. We love the sturdiness and its lightweight so packing it up and moving it around is pretty easy.

My son, for whom I purchased this tripod is very pleased with it. he is a photography major at college, and has said it does everything he needs. It seems to be built very well, yet is light enough not to be cumbersome when carrying it with other gear.
Very Happy with our purchase.

I used this tri pod to secure my Nikon D90 for some light nature pictures as well as some night time shots. This tri pod is really light and easy carry around and it comes with an adapter to secure your phone to if you want to use your phone as a video camera to capture videos or time lapse shots.
Everything works well, and the price of this makes it better. My only complaint was that it can be too light which can shake the camera if doing long exposure shots. The fix for that is to add weight to it.

An "OKAY" tripod for beginners

It is an okay tripod. Very light but sturdy so far. A tripod to learn how tripods can help in photography, but it not the best in relation to stabilization since it's too light and there is not even a hook under it to add weight to help stabilizing. And the adjustable neck is too plasticky and u can only adjust it with rotating the lever which I didn't found so helpful in adjusting fast. I already bought another more stable one putting extra $10.

This is an awesome tripod for the money. I've had several others which cost more not as nice as this one. I've already recommended to brother-in-law who is looking for one to use with his Nikon spotting scope.

Great for price, its light weight and easy to use and pack around. Only minor thing ive noticed is its a little wobbly when its fully extended to its max height but i suppose most probably are but ive been very pleased with it so far and would buy again.

Have used an older Velbon model for years. But the screw that tightens the up/down movement wore out. This is a very nice tripod. Very light weight. Very nicely built for the price and for putting on a day pack. Didn't give it a 5 only because I am waiting to see if the screw is good; but it may be perfectly fine.

Good starter tripod

The tripod adjusts easily up to the height needed to be comfortable looking into the videocam screen, and is stable.
The up and down movement is smooth in adjusting what is in frame, but the swivel side to side needs to glide more easily, and I could not figure out a way to make that turning glide easily while keeping the placement snug enough to prevent the cam from flopping.
4 stars, it would be great for photography use but needs to swivel without squeaking (heard on video) and jerking with a video camera.
Now I know more clearly what to look for in my next tripod purchase in the future.

Although the product is plastic, it appears to be strong enough. Tightens up very well keeping my equipment secure. If it sustains This would be a five star product.

It does the job. It's a no-frills tripod that'll hold your camera steady. It's light and compact so it's easy to store or take along with you. Enough control to be adjustable, not so much that you get lost balancing it.
