    My 50" tripod has become an essential tool in my photography arsenal. It's lightweight, easy to set up, and provides sturdy support for my camera. The adjustable height is great for various angles and settings. Whether for outdoor shots or indoor setups, this tripod delivers consistent performance. Great value for its price point.

    For the price point it’s not bad for what you get. The build quality feels a bit cheap but it gets the job done. It has the leveler bubbles to get the most in frame shots. Really only recommend if your not tryna spend a bunch and just need your camera up lol

    Affordable, light but absolutely durable. I bought this as an emergency buy to provide streaming via zoom for a friend's wedding but almost 3 years later I am still shooting with this tripod.

    Im not really impressed with this. Yes it’s portable and lightweight. It was affordable but it feels cheap and I don’t trust it with my camera. Will definitely be getting a better one

    Works well for travel due to size. Not as rugged as I would prefer but for the money, it got the job done nicely. The top piece comes off to connect to your camera, making attachments quick and easy, which was a major plus. Glad I stopped into the store to see it. It doesn't go as tall as I ideally would like it, but aside from that, it's great.

    It's a good product. It's very light weight and has great height. You have to make sure you fold it correctly or you can damage it.

    We forgot to carry our tripod on our trip, so we went in to Best Buy trying to find something good within a budget. The Sunpak TravelSmart is a great buy for the price. Easy to use, lightweight and stable.

    The product is very flimsy. I bought it to take long videos so first off you’re gunna need a portable charger with a long charging cord. Secondly, trying to lock the head in position is tough. The lever that screws in to the mount has to be jammed in there just to reach the thread. I also did not understand the little button on the detachable mount. It got in the way of trying to turn the phone holder around. Just get a real a tripod if you want to use your phone

    What does anyone really expect for a tripod under $25. It is lightweight, and has a decent amount of customization for the height. Not the best in windy areas and definitely would not use with any camera/over $300 dollars.
