    Tripod works ok. Now I need to buy a camera so I can use it. It was easy to set up. User friendly

    I got this for a great discount, but that was the best thing about this camera stand. It will do the job if you are just using it for a single one time use. If it is just going to be used at the house it would work. But I didn't like how "flimsy" it felt in my hands compared to other camera stands that I had purchased.

    This tripod broke the first day of use. The lower section of one of the legs pulled out. The cheap plastic joint broke. I don't recommend this item. I also don't recommend purchasing from BestBuy as they only have a 15 day return policy.

    Definitely not worth the money. Spend more and get a tripod that is sturdy. The plate doesn't stay secure. The plastic is very cheap. I purchased it because it wouldn't be moved, static camera placement but the plate wont stay on our camera.

    It cheap, the legs don't really bare weight.

    VERY CHEAPLY made. This is supposed to be an upgrade from the 5858D, and sunpak skimped everywhere they could and everywhere they couldn't. Cheap plastic mounts won't stay in their slots. Extremely flimsy material. Feels like it will fall apart with a gentle breeze.

    I needed something that I could use in an emergency for a quick video capture moment. It was easy to setup and use with my Canon T3i DSLR camera.

    When you use it, you think you might break it. The motion of the head on the top is not smooth at all.

    This tripod is flimsier than I expected if there's wind, probably a good backup tripod since it's light.

    It will eventually stop winding up or down because the piece inside is made from plastic and wares..
