Right Idea, Poorly made?

So, It comes with two pairs of wraps.  One set up wraps seems to be holding up nicely.  The other set of wraps fell apart after 1 use.

Not made very well. First one broke so we returned it and got a new one right away.  Second one is together, but also seems poorly made.

While I like the concept, it has a couple technical and design flaws:

1) When fully extended, it bows like a fishing rod with fish on, even when holding a camera that's 4 oz at most. This makes it very hard to keep the camera steady.
2) The mounting hardware provided unscrews on its own too easily, putting cameras at risk of a long, hard, damaging fall.

Again, good concept, poor design and construction.

Good concept, poor design. For $30 we're only getting a $10-15 product, the rest is them collecting on the gimmick. The info sheets are stickered on, printed in poor quality (as if from a home inkjet printer) and CROOKED, which cheapens it entirely. I would have thought the info would have been painted on, looking a lot more professional.

The folding aspect is the other reason I was interested. The clipboard is a bit on the bigger side than expected, very bulky in a side pant pocket. The clipboard "clip" is mounted landscape when folded/portrait when unfolded and it should be reversed or maybe add a second clip for those who want to use the clipboard in a folded fashion.

Likewise, the clipboard cannot flip open 360 degrees, only 180, and so there is no way to reference the info sheets and a piece of paper clipped to it at the same time. The product picture makes it seem like it flips around on itself, which I would see as useful. I don't see this being practical in my profession as EMS/nursing/flight crew, I will be returning this product.

This Product has a good idea but poor design. This is supposed to be mounted on the motorcycle handlebar. I mounted on the Harley Sportster. Couple of things noticed that need improvement.
1. There is a screw behind the rotating ball that holds the mount, which gets loose, needs tightening time to time. This screw should be removed and the plastic be fused in the manufacturing as part of the SOLUTION. There is no need to put a screw on this thing to tighten the 2 parts.
2. U shaped bolt to tighten on the handle bar. There is a plastic piece in the curve of the U to go against the handle bar. This is not designed sturdy enough to hold under the tightening required to keep the equipment in place as you drive the motorcycle. It broke by splitting into 2 halves after 2 weeks. Its only plastic. Fair enough, but not good enough. SOLUTION: Make the the curved metal part flat, so it will not tear through the plastic.
3. The gears inside to keep the grip tight started failing after 2 weeks. Its supposed to hold the cellphone tight. Its unsatisfactory as the gears slip and the movement of the grips becomes asymmetric after a while.

I loved the idea, of the product. Its worth what I paid for. But I am in search for a better execution of a similar product.

Thanks for reading

I needed this item. But it is NOT well made, NOT sturdy. While the concept is a good one (it's nice looking and functional?) it is deceiving. I didn't watch the first reviewers video- so it's smaller than expected. 4 inches tall, and longer WITHOUT the usable space to match. It's a little over 4" wise, there is less than 3" of usable space. I can fit one, maybe 2 TV controllers in a spot, then they fall over because it is too short. Good for storing styluses, and travel size hand lotion, or even a nasal spray. MAY work for pens and pencils, but only if you have a big collection so they can't lean. Don't even think about small items like thumb drives because you are not getting them out without tweezers or turning this mess upside down.

Good for storing styluses, and travel size hand lotion, or even a small-medium prescription bottle.

So the main issue is poor design. The 2 sides that pull out are very thick and do not slide straight; they are loose but also awkward to pull out. Loose like they were measured wrong. It wobbles and is crooked, but looks like they intentionally used the wrong measurements. The cool looking spaces are not practical.

It is not as nice looking as the photo, and does not work well.

Great idea, poorly made.  The foam is too soft and the angle not correct to fully get paint into the inside corner of two walls.  Then, when you press harder, the metal handle scrapes one of the walls and leaves a mark.  The one Home Depot sells with the cheap plastic handle actually works better.

Great idea, but questionable quality. The cord around the back of the neck works exactly as described. It is light weight, visually unobtrusive, and can be adjusted so that it does not rest on the neck. My problem was with the end pieces that attach to the glasses. The item I received had two sets of rubber end caps--one for wide ear pieces and one for smaller ones. One of the large end-pieces was already split in the original package, so I used the smaller ones. Half way through my trip, one of the smaller end pieces also split rendering the product useless for the rest of the journey. Since the absence of the retainer made little if any difference on the remainder of my journey, I now question the necessity of the product altogether.

Somehow this should be a great design for easy handling,but the poor quality control really kills the idea,i wish they can realize the problem and do something about this,this is so annoyed and disappointed .
Would like to have a try again if they have the modified version later,and think i am not the only one having the same feeling.

This would have been awesome, but this was a cheap one. Broken before I opened it. Hit or miss I suppose. Good luck!

The concept is a great idea. Have owned two of these, the first one I used for some various small projects, had issues with the battery staying charged. I finally figured out if I tie wrapped the trigger and let the battery drain completely it did take a charge and worked somewhat, but it still wasn't good. Then I was using it to put Christmas lights hanger clips behind the trim boards on the front of my house and the damn thing fell apart. Parts and pieces all over the place. I gathered up what parts I could find, took it to Lowes where I bought it, and tried to exchange it and they told me I had to send it into the company who made it. That didn't set to well with me being it is only a couple months old, but thats another issue. I ended buying another one (I'm a slow learner I guess) and that damn thing is no better than the first one. I got my Christmas light up and they really look nice, but by the time I finished the head on the newest one is loose and sloppy. Personally I feel this is a poor quality tool and agree with others about the directional switch, battery issues and overall quality. The second one is going back to Lowes too and I'm buying something else.

Ok... so if you are considering buying this, you probably think maybe I can save a little money on heating costs by recycling newspaper.  That was my thought.. Anyway, the design of this tool is not bad, but as you can expect from 90% of the stuff we buy today, it's poorly manufactured by our friends (er..lien-holders) in China. The first log I tried, I turned the handle tight to make the log compact, and ended up completely destroying the cheap spindle -- it looked like 1/8" aluminum tubing with a slot in it to insert the edge of the first piece of newspaper.  Was going to return it, but hey, fixing cheap garbage from China is what we will all have learn how to do... SO I replaced the spindle with a 7/16" cold-steel rod.  Also replaced the set screw in the handle. Note to Chinese:  Sheet metal screws do not work well as set screws.  After I did this I had a solid spindle, but no slot.  I found that scotch taping the first piece of paper to the spindle worked well.  But after rolling the log as tight as I could, how do you remove it?  I found if you turn the handle in the reverse direction, it breaks the tape and then you can slowly work the log of (After tying it up with string).  Made about 15 of them now and it seems to be working..watch for my video on YouTube..

Seemed good from the start. However, like others have said, the embroidery is positioned awkwardly. Furthermore, the collar comes off WAY too easily. I have had it less than a day, and my cat has taken it off TWICE. I can't keep it if this continues, and so I plan on returning it if possible. A great idea ruined by bad design and quality.

Good idea but has some problems:
1. It must be in a specific spot in the dishwasher for it to work correctly.
2. Mine broke in less than 2 months (the clips on the back broke and after that, the whole thing fell apart.)

Good idea, shoddy execution.  After just over a month of use, one of the charging ports got stuck in one of our controllers and actually broke off.  Had to work it with needle-nose pliers to get the piece loose.  The stand itself seems to work well enough otherwise, but given its main purpose as a charger for controllers, its lack of durability really offsets its usefulness.  Past 30 days, so no Amazon return for this lemon...

What a great concept this is. Unfortunately the idea did not translate into a quality product. I ordered two of these devices. I was a little surpirsed when I first received them at how poorly packaged they were. Each one was inside a cardboard sleeve much like a deck of cards with no other wrapping or protection for the electronic devices inside. The cardboard sleeves themselves looked like they'd been pulled out of a recycle bin and no instructions or any other paperwork was included in the packaging. After taking one of the units out, the next thing that struck me was how large the device was. 2.5" sounds small but my first thought after seeing it was that in reality it wouldn't take people very long to locate an object of this size. Unfortunately, I would never find out if I was right on that point. The volume and sound selector switch worked on the first device but the timer mechanism to have it sound randomly did not, which rendered the unit useless. The second device was in even worse shape. I was never able to get a single noise out of it. I swapped the batteries in them to make sure that wasn't the issue - it wasn't. And then I had several coworkers try them just to make sure it wasn't user error on my part - afterall, there were no instructions. Still no luck. In short, the quality problem here will make me avoid ThinkGeek products like the plague in the future.

Great idea, poorly constructed.  The rake is loose on the handle and wiggles around like it's going to fall off and the handle is very very warped.  I will plan to remove the head and re-secure it with some additional screws.  Not much can be done with the handle.  Considering replacing the handle as well.
