Its a lightweight cheap tripod to get you out of a pinch.

It will hold your camera but don't expect anything else. Its too small to be really useful. Lightweight construction. Panning and any type of motion, forget it. Too jerky. Use it to hold a camera in place and when in a pinch. Nothing you will ever want to use professionally.

the tripod is smaller than how it looks online, but will work with a lightweight camera.  The phone adaptor that came with is was poorly made, the screw and spring pop off the first time I attempted to use is with my iPhone 6 +.  Unfortunately, I could not find the screw and spring as it was outside in a grassy area.  Should have gone for the more expensive one, which looks heavier duty.

I'm not a professional, and I didn't really need such a big tripod. So I was considering buying a mini tripod for $7 or this guy. I'm glad I got it. It's not manufactured with the greatest materials but it's stable enough. If you're like me don't think twice, go for it.

Well, it works, and it's hard to beat the price... but the lightweight construction is _really_ lightweight. With a decent sized camera (Pentax K7), there's a lot of wobble, and I've had to go to using a remote if I'm taking a light sensitive photo.

Good tripod for the price.  Not as sturdy as I want, but again this is about all I could afford.  It folds nice and the mono-pod option works great.  It is light weight and easy to carry around and transport.  Recently the "stopper" in the end of one of the legs fell out so the last section falls out.  I'm not sure how to get it back in.  It works OK, you just have to hold it at the approximate length when you tighten it back up.

This tripod is super lightweight, I doubt it is even the stated 2 lbs.  Definitely would not trust any expensive photography or video equipment on this thing.  It would be suitable for a kid or a webcam.

It is a very light tripod, not a heavy duty one... the plate doesn't lock firmly on the head, it is wiggling ... so the camcorder/camera is not fixed but moving on the head of the tripod... not happy with it but once I replaced the head the legs are doing its purpose.  So if you need something heavy duty to carry a camcorder this wouldn't be your best choice.

Feels cheap, and its concerningly light weight. That being said, it does the job.

This is an ok product..I suppose you get what you pay for ..$20.  My main complaint would be that it's not sturdy and feels flimsy.  If you just need a starter tripod and are not too serious or worried that it's not going to get you perfectly set images, or challenge you to get those images, then I say go for it.

Handy Tripod for light use, I use it for my Microsoft Lifecam and it is very good! Lightweight and cheap price! Love it!

The legs are pretty wobbly when fully extended, which makes me worry about my DSLR, especially when it has a heavier lens on it. For a really cheap and lightweight option it's not bad though. I generally make it a little more sturdy by not fully extending the legs out. Definitely recommend if you're using it to film on your phone or another lightweight camera. Good to have as a backup for you DSLR, but just know it's definitely not sturdy.

You get what you pay for, and this is a cheap, cheap, cheap little tripod. I wanted something light to use as a flash stand for real estate photography, but I honestly don't expect this to last very long. I think everything on it is plastic. Also, I really don't like the little "hand crank" added to raise the center bar. I prefer just grabbing the bar and lifting it, rather than wasting time with a little crank. Cheesy. For the money, it's a decent little tripod, but I sure wouldn't trust it to hold a camera.

This is a functional balanced tripod. The quality is a bit less than I am used to but for a unit I want to carry into the woods it will do fine. It's lightweight but I'm not sure of the durabilty over time

Works well.  It is a little lightweight buy serves it's purpose.

Update: 03-2010 Still working fine.  When I ruptured my achilles tendon I leaned on this like a cane to help me getup when arranging cloths in the closet.  It is very light duty (kinda cheap) but if you are gentle with it is light and works fine.

Taking the unit out of the box I was excited with the features but turned off by the way each leg joint flexes and moves around.  It felt really cheap.  After using it a few weeks I got used to it.  The light weight means I can take it with me because it is so light.  My other tripod is also plastic and aluminum, weighs probably 3x as much as this unit and is such a chore that I put it into storage!

PROS:
Light so it is easy to carry.  Compact.  Good height - not limited to 40 inches like some tripods.  You get two heads making switching back and forth easy.

The center lock: I use this tripod to hold auto shop lights when working on my motorcycle.  The tripod legs can be in the way. The lock lets you pull the legs in so the tripod is taller but the feet on the three legs is closer together.  Then with a turn of the screw they are locked in place!  Great feature.

The levels - small handy extra.

CONS:
Very light duty and cheap construction.  The quality of the moving / sliding parts could be designed better without adding lots of weight or expense and could still use plastic.  But we live in the real world and but what is on the shelf and make the best of it.

Legs shake at each joint where a tube slides out.  It feels like it needs to be tightened but there is nothing to tighten.  In all the tripods I have ever used this is a first.  Although, everything I have ever used weighs more too.

I saw a similar unit (but did not take it out of the box to look it over) for four dollars more at staples.  I would have preferred to buy something in a store like that that I can touch and feel and is easy to return but many stores have outrageous prices on total junk tripds - average is around $40!!

It will hold my full sized sony Hi8 camcorder / analog video recorder that practically broke the unit at circuit city.  Although, tilt & pan operations won't be very smooth.

This is a bit of a niche tool, unless you're a pro in which case you probably want something more robust.  As an occasional solution, it works well enough.

It's lightweight, which means that it can be a bit more prone to wobble and shake, and you're limited to light cameras.  As this is designed for a Go Pro, the latter issue is a bit moot, but the shake can be tough to avoid (technique can help).  Firmly screwing the poles in can help as well.  Ideally it could be mounted to a tripod.

It's a bit sloppy as far as tension, especially after using it a few times.  It still works, but it again loses smoothness.

So if you're looking to use this intermittently, this should do the trick.  It's not perfect, but it's lightweight, portable, and it's affordable.

Pros:
Feather light(over exaggerating as its super light)
comes with a carrying case(my expensive Sony tripod didn't come with one)

Cons:
Plastic isn't very reliable
The leg covers (the one that touch the floor) is already falling off
When tilting the DSLR you need to adjust a bit to keep it stable at 90 dgrees
Spring work is not sturdy

Over all god for light duty travel jobs but not for hard core photography and outside still photography as it shakes with wind being already light weight.

very good for handy cams and small cameras.
