Customer Review: AWESOME tripod.
Summary: 5 Stars
Before I talk about how AMAZING this is (which it is), I should say that for $15 bucks (with FREE shipping), within two days, I got a box ALMOST 4 feet tall at my house. This thing was VERY well packaged, and Amazon must be losing money with the cheap prices and AMAZING shipping.
Regardless, this tripod is MORE than amazing. VERY sturdy build quality, a great pouch to carry it in, and it has SO many features I like. Below are just a FEW of the awesome features...
- Two Bubble Levels
- Quick Release Mount
- Gear Elevating Handles
- A sturdy-ing and carrying handle
- Accessory Hook
- Adjustable Rubber Feet
This is solid, and amazing. EASY to use, very tall, sturdy, and the best tripod I have EVER dealt with. Don't listen to the garbage other people say. This is AWESOME.
Customer Review: nice travel tripod

for 12 bucks this is a total steal.
the tripod extends to my eye level (i'm 5'10") when fully opened, which is plenty high. its light, but probably not very durable. the tripod does have a hook at the bottom of it (my unit anyway) so you can tie something more substantial to it for more stablization, but as long as your camera isn't an ultra heavy SLR, it should be just fine. i'm using a sony DSC-H2 with it, and so far, i haven't had any problems.
the head of the tripod is basically metal/pvc construction, it doesn't pan/tilt very smoothly, so this shouldn't be your camcorder tripod. for still photography tho, this is more than enough.
the holder/bag that came with the tripod is very flimsy, it works, but i have a feeling that it'll break after a few more trips to the woods.
Customer Review: Best tripod in world for the price....

I have been looking at tripods for about 3 months and I really did not like the fact the most are 50.00 and up for a lot of nothing. Most dont have the hook on the bottom for a weight that I was looking at for the price. I saw this one and figured I would give it a shot for 20 bux and I am glad I did. After comparing mine against my buddies $56.00 tripod, I really see that it was worth the money, They are both almost identical but his is more plasticy and doest have the weight hook on it. The hook is a great feature, once you hook one up to it the tripod feels like its part of the floor. definately a key feature. love it all around. My only gripe is that I wish it was a little taller..Im 6 foot and a 59-62 would be a great size for me but thats the only gripe and I really could care less..Customer Review: Nice product, Great price

A nice tripod, with easy-to-use controls, once you've found and/or figured them all out. Snap-locks on the legs are easy to use, and the legs are fairly sturdy. Tilt-and-pan head may not have a stability control, but for this price you want diamonds maybe? It's fairly smooth, and just get a good video camera with stability control built it. The center "lift" post and crank worked nicely; once again, not hand-tooled brass or steel, but once again, not $100-$200 either.
It will be used alongside of a pre-war (WW II) brass and steel tripod, of the kind "they don't make anymore" quality; a bit lighter, but good enough for almost-professional work, and a lot less valuable if anything did happen to it.
All in all, it is nice.
Customer Review: Excellent for its price
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for the occasional family photos. I'm happy with what I got specially for the price! Its reasonably well constructed and for the point and shoot digital camera that I have, its fairly stable and sturdy. Its very light and easy to lug around. Fits nicely in an average sized backpack. I would recommend this to all occasional photographers.
<Update>
The screw holding one of the tripod legs recently came off. I never noticed it being lose and one day when we tried to set it up, the leg simply fell apart. I guess thats to be expected for this price. I found a similar screw on a cheap Chinese umbrella (the kind you can buy for 3 bucks at any gas station) and used that to fix the leg.
