    I was looking for something that I could put my phone on and I was on best buy website and stumble on this for the price I paid 16.99 it is worth the money I paid for it. It's not to bulky not heavy just the right size, It's a most to have and doesn't cost. I recommend only using it for your phone.

    The good - it's at least solid. It also makes a good handheld or stand-up monopod. The bad - it feels nearly as fragile as it looks and the mounting point gets really grindy-feeling quickly. If you can pick this up cheap, it's good to have in the trunk for those moments you might want a tripod or a way to steady your smartphone. Otherwise, spend more and get something better.

    This was an inexpensive purchase needed for just a one off use and honestly, it gave me more trouble than it was actually useful. Extending the legs and stabilizing them proved to be difficult as the cheap plastic started to break whenever any pressure was applied. You should pass on this or spend $10-20 more for something that can be used more than once or twice.

    This tripod is one of the most rugged and easiest I've used. It's also very versatile with the adjustments it's capable of, the built in level, and the center of it coming out of the tripod body to become a monopod. I recommend this to anyone looking to buy a tripod.

    I purchased this tripod to use for traveling and recording with a camcorder. The tripod is easy to setup and also includes an adapter for holding cell phones. A carrying case is included and the adjustments for tilt, pan, and angling are easy to use.

    This tripod was low-priced and will do what it's supposed to. Just not as sturdy as I thought it would be.
