I bought this to replace my 40 year old tripod that had seen better days. Right off the bat I was impressed with how light it is compared to my old one. I actually wondered for a moment if it is perhaps too light (we have a lot of windy days here in MN) but then I realized with that hook in the middle I can just hang my camera bag there if I wanted to secure it a little more. It is very quick to set up and take down. I am very happy with this tripod!
I needed a taller, adjustable tripod and found this one. It exceeded my expectations because so far, it's been durable and easily adjusts to what height I need it, and as an added bonus it has levels built into it.
The product arrived relatively quickly and safely--nicely packaged and protected. It was already constructed which was nice and did not have anything missing. I have yet to actually use it with a device, which screws on the top, but it seems alright for now. It was a little hard to manipulate the legs, which is the only reason why I am giving 4 instead of 5 starts but otherwise no problems.
