    This tripod worked really well for what I needed it for. I would not hesitate one bit to purchase this tripod again if I needed another one.

    Eh, its okay. I mean, if you need something last minute or plan on using inside it'll do the job. The legs are soooo thin. I find it to be too light weight and flimsy for me.

    Needed a tripod for a project. This one does the job. And, I wanted a tripod that would hold my iPhone (not just my camera) works like a charm.

    This stand is super sturdy and gets the job done. Heavier duty then the previous one I had and is a good deal.

    Let me tell you about this terrible product. Pros: * It's lightweight Cons: * Every moving component of this tripod wobbles * The lower third of the legs extend to the thinnest piece of metal which contributes to wobbling * Did I mention something made to keep your camera stable WOBBLES???

    This is childish why would you make a tripod that’s only 4ft tall How am supposed to use my camera to take selfies But I guess that’s my mistake for not taking heed to the measurements

    Don't waste your money! This tripod broke the first time I tried to use it! part that connects the smart phone holder to the tripod snapped right off! I was forced to hold my phone in my hand for the rest of the soccer tournament to video the game for parents that weren't able to attend the game due to Covid 19 restrictions. Luckily I was still able to return it to Best Buy for a full refund.
