    I thought this tripod was going to be better than it is. While functional, it is very light and the pieces do not have a nice solid fit. I will probably end up using it, but was disappointed in the quality. I know it is very inexpensive and that is more than likely the reason, so I can't really fault it for what it is.

    This tripod is awesome. It packs down so small, and expands up and out so easily. We took so many family photos in so many rocky and forested locations. It was no problem!

    It works well, I stuck a go pro 5 on it and the level really helps. Light weight but stable. Comes with a bag to carry it that makes it great for travel

    I bought this because I have a shaky right hand, really hard to take pictures with one hand. I think that it does the job I wanted it for just great.

    This stand has great features but it's not heavy enough to withstand stronger weather. Struggled to keep it steady on a breezy California night. Great for the desert.

    This tripod isn't bad but I would up buying a more expensive tripod as my zoom lens was pushing the envelope on the weight this can safely handle.

    The tripod is not functional at all. - Would not stay locked into place - Attachment was not locking into place I ended up having to tape and use rope to get it to actually work. WOULD NOT BUY.

    Pretty flimsy product. Bought it in a pinch and was cheap in price and build quality. Should have spent the extra money for a sturdier tripod. If you have a light camera, it may get you by.

    I often take pictures outside of my husband/friends on the golf course. As I patiently wait for them to tee up their shots and get just the right angle/position I finally accepted that I could benefit from a tripod instead of leaning against the tree in the yard LOL! nice tripod - leg extensions are on flip tabs so you flip up to losen and extend then flip back to lock in place. Third extension segment is a little thin but will certainly work for my purpose. Extends to 45+" so more than enough height for my needs.

    This product while low priced will make you wish you spent an extra 20 bucks to get a better tripod! Very flimsy cheap plastic design. Do not trust your camera with this weak flimsy plastic tripod.

    It's sturdy enough but I don't know if I'd use it outside much. The camera twists on for a secure hold and the adjustable height and tilt is works well.
