    Not very sturdy. Does not support my camera very well. Just flimsy for a tripod.

    Online ordered. Picked up at BestBuy, should have opened up and inspect right there at the Online Pick-Up counter. Got home, opened it and scratches/dents are visible everywhere and I didn't have to turn on the lights to see it. The awful beat-up, torn box should have clued me in but I guess the excitement of receiving this tripod was more, so went home. So disappointed. Returning this asap.

    If you just need a tripod in your studio, and your not gonna travel, then it is okay. Comes with a quick release plate, so that is good.

    I wouldn’t recommend this tripod for any camera over 2-4lbs or $500 as it is cheaply made.

    You get what you pay for with this stand. The quality is poor, and it’s not that sturdy. Perfect for a cell phone but nothing heavier.

    I bought this to hold my camera up to record videos and the part where you screw the camera on was way to short and would not hold my camera. Returned it the next day.

    Should work well for what we need it to do. Feels a little weak. And came with a broken adapter when we took it out of the box

    This is a very cheap tripod which I think works well for a digital camera. I used it for a small video camera and the plastic inside broke after about three weeks.

    Inexpensive tripod, the quality is not good that's why the price is low. But if you want a better one spend a little more. Will not buy it again.

    Very cheap quality. I picked up on sale for $9.99 so I will probably keep it but it’s very flimsy. I tried to use it to take photos of the moon but the adjustments weren’t smooth and I wasn’t able to center at all. It has all the components you would expect but they are all cheap plastic. I can see using it as a smartphone tripod for videography or family photos.

    Tried to buy this 2 times but each time I unboxed it, it looked like someone had used it already. BB employee said it might be the way theyre shipped but who wants to buy something new that looks used?
