    Came in very poor condition, the paint was peeling off the strews and grip of the tri pod was in terrible quality. Would not buy, recommend on paying a little bit more for a better quality learned my lesson.

    I bought this tripod and when I opened it at my home it was already broken. I tried to fix but it seems that all pieces continue falling out. I have never used and it’s still inside of Best Buy bag. Don’t buy this tripod, go with Gorillapod. It costs more more but you will not have problems.

    Broke on first use. This product was horrible. First complaint it smelled strongly of petroleum upon opening. First attempt to wrap the legs around a support column and the device shattered. Steer clear.

    this is very weak and can't hold anything. Returned it before it was too late. I bought this thinking it could stand on a table and hold a dlsr camera. It couldn't.

    We had serious issues with getting the legs to tighten. I was going to return it, but then I ended up breaking it due to trying to pinch it in between two objects since the legs never seemed stiff enough to hold.

    The day I was about to use it, a leg broke off, so didn’t even get one use out of it. Nothing extreme was done, had it wrapped around arm of folding chair until I needed it, unwrapped it, that’s when it broke.

    Bought this to use with a Sony Alpha 6100 with no attachments and isn’t that good, for sure it worth you put more money and pay for a GorillaPod
