Nice little tri pod, it was easy to set up &can use it with my go pro or 360 camera or any other digital camera with a hole for a mount screw. Although its not always the sturdiness with a little work on its position it does great! &for the price you can't beat it!

Haven’t even had the item three months and only got to use it twice. I tried to bend the legs back straight and one of the leg broke off. What a waste!

I've never seen an item that is so cheaply made and comes cosmetically damaged before this. I can't recommend it. It should retail for $4, not $20.

Nice small tripod - easy to take with you anywhere and works great for small cameras. I would not recommend it for a full size SLR with any lens. Purchased as a deal of the day :-)

Perfect Christmas gift for my sister!!! I'm not a photographer so I can't really describe this trip further, but she had a sincere smile on her face. She said she could wrap it around a tree.

If you looking a economic tripod, was no made for heavy cameras but had no problem with a smartphone or a action camera, the materials feels cheap but is a cheap tripod I think you get what you paid.

Very affordable quick and easy GoPro tripod! I needed something like the Jobi gorilla pod for my Hawaii trip, and I ended up picking this up just before the trip. It came in very handy and did the job well. The leg sections do seem to get a bit looser over time, however it's not unusable by any means. If you have more weight to mount on this, I wouldn't recommend it, however for a GoPro sized camera or phone mount, this will do just fine.

It’s great for the price and for a beginner. It’s really flexible although it’s not as stable, just gotta find the right balance.

Wanted something small to hold up my GoPro to record myself practicing guitar. Originally this wasn't on the website nor shown as being in the store, so I went to buy the smaller, more expensive one. When I got to BB this one was right next to the one I went for. After thinking about it for a minute & looking up reviews, I decided to go with this bigger one really to save money, but it just looked far more beefier than the other one. This one is perfect. Very stable, great price!

This is the third one I bought throughout the years, it is steardy enough but if dropped from great distance it will break (the ball joint and/or legs will break off). It is the most flexible mini/tabletop tripod I would always use. It will NOT withhold a DSLR camera, though it says it will, it is too top heavy for the tripods. It is mainly used for small point&shoot and GoPro cameras.

I use this tripod to mount my GoPro and phone, and so far I do not have any issues. It does the job well. It is very easy to adjust and maneuver, although I think it will be harder to use for bigger cameras. It is so lightweight and very easy to carry around while travelling. Overall, very happy for this purchase and would highly recommend this product.

This thing has been great. We even were able to set it up on the dash for a dash cam and it worked like a charm. And at about 1/3 the price of the other brands you can't go wrong. We have also used it for baseball and it wraps around the chain link fence for a perfectly secure spot.
