It’s okay the legs don’t tighten as they should and can only used a certain way. Doesn’t perform as should no time to return

This item smells. I can't understand why they think it is acceptable to sell an item that smells like gasoline. I thought the smell would eventually dissipate, but months later, it still smells strongly like gasoline. The legs are a little flimsy, but tolerable if it didn't stink so bad. The light is the best part of the kit. It works well.

Nice item for the size. Provides ample light for video calls/interviews and I like that the legs extend. They are, however, sometimes stubborn when I want to shorten them. Salesperson told me it was good for what I needed despite my concern about ring size, and he was correct.

i wear glasses and I'm trying to find the right angle where you can't see the halo reflection on my eyes. I like thr adjustable brightness and softness of the light as well as how it holds my phone. I'd also prefer it where I have the option to prop the phone vertically

Easy setup, easy to use and inexpensive. The only complaint I had was the smell. There is a plastic smell that came from the product for weeks. Not sure if it went away or I just got use to the smell. Overall great product for a novice like me.

Works OK, missing a locking pin on one leg

For the price, this works. The light is good. The tripod would work but it has little spring things that slide into a hole to lock the extensions. Mine is missing one. I will try and exchange. If that worked, I would give it a 4 and given the price (that I think is good) a 5 if the tripod leg worked.

This meet my expectations. Easy to set up. I use it sitting down or standing up. Light brightness can be adjusted. It has 3 settings which allow you to choose the correct lighting.
The only negative comment to my purchase is I was given an open item even I paid brand new.

Seeing that everyone is online these days, I decided to make me a little video for my Etsy business. Well, that worked fine but my son came over and instantly fell in love with my portable Vlog kit. Needless to say, he's enjoying it now and seems like I need to order another! SMH

Really happy with it. Several color shades and several brightness settings. It is very bright and I usually have it on the lowest brightness setting. Disassembles quickly which makes it Super easy to store. Use with a phone or laptop.

The legs don't easily expand and when the do generally fail to lock in place. Since I use it on a table top and have after multiple attempts have it in the position I need. It looks good and the light is bright and seems to work fine. Overall it does what I need it to do.

I bought this light when I noticed that my Zoom calls were too dark in my home office. Really easy to use and install. Tripod that's included is a little low quality, but usable. Caution if plugging into a laptop for power, this light drains battery FAST!
