Very Stable tripod
This tripod is very nice, it is huge but still kind of light weight. the build quality appears to be superb. I purchased this tripod because my current one just was not getting it. When I place my camera on it ,it wobbled (for the of a better word) I was afraid my pictures were not as clear as they should have been. I searched the internet for something I felt would be a good tripod and not break the bank. There are so many excellent tripods out there that would meet my needs but the price tags are ridiculously high. For the price I thought I would try this one and if it had been a cheap piece of crap when it came in I would return it. This thing is rock solid, I have seen videos where people mount high powered rifles on them and shoot from it. When I place my camera on it with my 200-600 lens, it is like setting it on the solid ground. with 40 mm top legs and 10 layers of carbon fiber add that it appears to be very top quality for just over $300.00 and not well over $1000. I am very happy.

True Landscape Tripod
For yhe last 8 months I have put this tripod though it's paces, and it is one of the only tripods I haven't broke. I am a lanscape photographer in the northwest and I have had this in snow, mud, sand and almost completely submerged in water. There is a lot of paint missing from this tripod bit it still works great. I have with it and even on it countless times. I have extended a leg and used it as a snow probe and I have never bent it.There are a few drawbacks however. This tripod is a beast! It is heavy and long wich makes it awkward to pack. The weight does help with stability for lanscapes though so I prefer it. The tilting center pole is a cool feature and works great paired with the ball head, but I always use a panoramic head and found the center pole wasn't letting me drop the legs all the way to the ground so I cut it (more of a personal preference thing, and a problem you'll have with any center pole but I thought it was worth mentioning)So in conclusion; if you don't mind the weight it is probably the best priced landscape tripod on the market

I finally found a good ring light.
This is the best ring light I own. I have a lot of equipment for YouTube, Twitch, podcasting, and blogging, but I was looking for the perfect ring light for talking head and talking hand videos. This is the first ring light that I brought that has a good size to it and it can tilt. The brightness levels is awesome and it has multiple levels of brightness from low to high. This is the perfect tripod to mount a phone or GoPro on it. The tripod height can be safely adjusted to about 6 ft with a phone mounted. Although, the tripod can get pretty high, it's a very few applications where that would be usually, but it's still a good just in case feature. There's a few options for the light's colors which comes in handy for certain situations. This tripod is well made. Two of my favorite tripods (in the picture) are from UBeesize and all of them are for different purposes. The last thing, the right light doesn't get hot, so it doesn't burn up my hands or face. Therefore, I can make my videos comfortably.

Simple and efficient
I got this tripod a few weeks ago, but I don’t like leaving a review until I have fully tested a product.I love this little tripod it is super easy to use light weight and sturdy. I’ve used it indoors, outdoors, on level ground and uneven floor and it it so easy to adjust. I did a glam hike and I took it with me, with the carrying bag perfect and easy to carry around. I would just like to add that although this comes with a remote, I had some trouble connecting it to my phone, I was able to connect it a couple of times. It also comes with a phone holder, which I find awesome since most tripods come without one and you have to purchase separate. I have the iPhone 11 Pro Max and it fits my phone perfect, the only thing I didn’t like is that the phone needs to be on the side, yes you can turn it to stand up but you loose a couple of inches in height, which is not a problem, but I would have liked it to be standing up!

Remarkable value
Pleasantly surprised by the build quality and the tripods ability to fold down so compactly. The great thing is that the legs are adjustable and spread out far enough as to afford the stability it needs. I'm not going to place any top heavy items on it but should I do so I'd recommend some weights at the bottom: (Note... I've read other reviews where they fuss about putting heavier items on the stand and I'm perplexed but that.. even with stands costing FAR more it's the smart thing to place sandbags or something similar at the base to stabilize it. I use velcroed ankle weights and they work wonderful. Thinking ahead goes a long way with this or any stand)... Another major plus are the locking clasps to adjust the sections. That's always a bonus over twist locks to me. My only regret is that I didn't buy an extra one at first. Top notch for the weight, compactness and utility. I'll edit this further once I've had more time with it.

Very nice sturdy tripod
Years ago, I had a really nice video tripod. I loaned it to a buddy of mine for a shoot and he completely stripped the head :-( I never found a tripod I like as much as that one - until now. Tripods have come a long way since I bought a decent one 20+ years ago. This thing is super light but seems more than strong enough than I'll ever need. I like the way it folds and the collar locks on the legs are great. I'm not as crazy about the locks at the tops of the legs, there's just a "catch" that stops the movement and it seems like I could possibly bump it the wrong way, but no problems so far. The included bag is nice, but you better get it folded up EXACTLY right or it's not gonna fit (would've been nice if they made it a tiny bit bigger than necessary for some "wiggle room"). The head seemed nice enough for a small DSLR/mirrorless/"action" -style camera, I swapped it out with a pan/tilt head for video. Overall I'm impressed with the quality of the tripod for the price point.

Very good tripod for what I use it for
I use this tripod primarily for filming public activism. It has served me well in public, outdoor settings. One of the review articles that we looked at before purchasing this tripod reviewed it as the "Most Stable" of the tripods it reviewed and said it was "Built Like a Tank" (here's the link to the article, although I cannot testify to the quality of the reviewer/article: https://www.amazon.com/ospublishing/story/fabdec1b-121a-49cd-a3b1-92df8dffa9ba/ref=sxin_10?cv_ct_pg). We don't do anything fancy with it (the camera pretty much remains in a single position the whole time), but the tripod legs have been stable overall (I think perhaps with the exception of when we've had a combination of wind and other things leaning against the tripod). As a plus, even though it seems fairly sturdy, the tripod itself isn't heavy to carry. Aesthetically, it is has a more professional look than the cheaper tripod we had purchased before. We're pleased with the buy and it looks robust enough to last us awhile!

Just awesome!
This is now my new favorite tripod. Here's a list of things I love about this model:It's solidly constructed. You don't have to worry about it collapsing or being damaged from a little bumping around.It's supremely adjustable. The middle pillar can act like a boom, so you can move your camera all over the place. With everything extended, you can get a lot of height as well.It comes with a really nicely adjustable ball-head that has a built-in level. This makes quick adjustments much easier.It comes with two plates to attach cameras to the head. Nice for us who have multiple cameras or want to also put a video camera on there without detaching the plate. I have other tripods where I had to buy a second plate.It has a hammock where you can add stones for weight - especially useful for safety when you are using the middle pillar as a boom.This is a great tripod, and I'm getting a lot of use out of it.
