I had previously used Manfrotto which is very good but 3x the price of this one but not 3 x better. This really is value for money very steady and great flexability of heights for a tripod

I've been in the house, due to the lockdown, whilst trying this out and I'm impressed. The features all work, giving a stable easy to set up platform.Its remained in good order and is a good construction/quality piece of kit.

Tripod itself is ok, the latches were very stiff to start with but eased up very quickly, perhaps too quickly as there does not seem to be a way of re-tensioning them. The ball head was a disappointment, unscrewing itself at every opportunity. The double-ended bolt that secures the head to the tripod was installed upside down and there is no locking grub-screw to stop the head unscrewing itself despite the fact that the collar has a threaded hole for that purpose. That said, the loose head problem could possibly be addressed with a little blue threadlocker (don't use red) so I won't be returning it just for that. The light weight of the tripod means that hanging your camera bag off the hook is always a good idea. The ball head coped well with the weight of a Canon 80D plus 300mm lens with no sign of the tripod lower legs flexing. Not recommended to use the center column at full extension as it will wobble! The included tripod bag is of good quality.

Love the flexibility of this tripod, particularly the easy switching to monopod. Very compact, lightweight and much firmer than any of my other tripods. For straight value for money this is great and will certainly think of buying a second one soon.

I have been looking for a tripod that is going to be stable in small to medium wind conditions. Needless to say this tripod worked perfectly. It is also a detachable monopod. Very interesting!It is light weight but also extremely sturdy.The Ball-Head is Huge.Controls are super smooth.360 Pan feels like a fluid-head.Opening legs are easy.Unlocking & Locking the mechanism to extend the legs, very easy.Buttons in order to expand the footprint on the legs very soft to press.Large camera Plate.All and all, this tripod is a huge win for the money.
