The flag has extremely low resolution. It would be useful if you were putting it on a flagpole high up, but not for hanging up in a house.

It's incredibly cheap, so its not reasonable to expect much. It may work as a flagpole, but I expect any wind gust will break it. No top was provided, or connectors, or points of connection.
It's NOT RETURNABLE says Amazon.
The pole is made of very thin tubes, overall weight just a few pounds. Carbon fiber wouldn't be strong enough at this weight.

I really like it, but have one suggestion.  The thumb screw which hold the flagpole secure should be longer.  Description says it will support both 1 inch and larger poles, but thumb screw is not long enough to secure a 1 inch flagpole.

I bought these to hang a 3'x5' polyester flag and found them to be "good enough" for this purpose... although I won't be surprised to find that the flag has slipped out of the rather weak clipping mechanism sometime soon. Something a little stronger would receive 5 stars.

I keep my GPS wedged in a bin on my dashboard because my windshield is too far to reach. (The bin is where the factory GPS would have been installed, had I gotten it.)  The assorted bits of foam and balsa wood I tried to wedge it in place there weren't working out that well.  It was trickier than I expected to get this positioned just right, but once I did it stays put.  I can see how if you bend this a lot you could fatigue and break a leg as some have said, and now that I've tried it I'm not sure I would use it in a application where I was bending and re-bending it a lot.  But for my purpose it works very well.

Not very happy with my new flag pole. I do feel a lot of my negative issues (and other reviewers) are a result of the poor description for the product.

This pole is only for certain types of flags that have a sleeve on the left side of the flag. You would clip the top of the flag to the top using the included clip and the flag slides over the plastic tube. So if you have this type of flag, this should be a very nice product.

Note  That is why there is only one clip on the top section of the flag under the top ball.

My flag I purchased was the wrong type and has two grommets. So while I can use the clip at the top of the flag to hold the top part of my flag via the top grommet, It leaves the flag hanging on the bottom. I was however able to semi rig this. I removed the lower screw and removed the tube and lower bracket giving me a single simple flag pole. I then just used zip ties to attach it to the pole using the top and bottom grommet. If I find it still moves, I may need to drill a hole through the diameter and run the zip tie through that so it does not slide up and down.
As far as the wood is concerned, I actually found it attractive and feel it is heavy-sturdy in comparison to my old one. Hoping it stands up to the weather.

Giving it three stars as if you have the right flag this is a great item. Two stars get removed for the terrible picture showing the upper mounting and lower and the lack of clarification as to how this is very flag specific. (My box also came crushed, however, that is not an issue for me as my flag pole was fine.)

Works great.  Sadly we couldn't use it.  I didn't oay attention to thw details.  This goes on top of the flag pole.  Our is too high. Seems nice though.

This works really well!  Just be sure the pole your flag is on can handle the wind pressure from the flag in higher winds.  The pole will snap at the top of the tube.  Not the product's fault!

It was great except that It would be nice if there were a loop near the back at the top so it could be hung up on a hook.

The flagpole has one ring at the top, but there is no second ring at the mid point. Therefore, there is no means to attach a flag to the pole.  You must apparently purchase rings separately.

Ok as long as it doesn't face strong winds. The stitching came apart after several months of use but we are in a high wind area. Probably a good flag for normal use.

This works great for a light on top of our flag pole. Great idea if you can't get an electric light to where your flag pole is.

I understand all the consternation and angst that customers are having over how to use this flagpole.
A whack on the knuckles for whoever decided to not provide instructions with the kit.
BUT, Everything you need IS packaged with the pole.
Like others have mentioned, the hook at the top end is for sleeve flags, and not for grommet type flags. Do not use it for grommet flags.
The two plastic rings with the thumbscrews are all that is needed to mount the flag. The screws go through the flag grommets and are hand-tightened to the upper section of the pole. Pull the spine of the flag tight before tightening the lower screw.
This is a very nice kit and should last for years. I knocked a star off because no instructions are included.

We wanted to Waite and see how this flag would work before we wrote a review. After about a month of using this we are looking into getting a new flag, this one will not stay on the pole an it seems like the pole is too short for the flag. If you are looking for just a flag then this is for you, but if you want one that works then you need to buy elsewhere. Not good

It would be nice if there were a hanging support on back.

I use it as a pole extension, maybe better as intended :)

Works well, but I should have thought a bit more about the placement and the lack of ability this has versus a gimble or pivot type mount.
