This excellent selfie stick arrives in a easy to recycle cardboard box, with two single plastic recyclable plastic bags.One bag being used to protect the included 360-X5 lens protector, a great accessory that's nicely made from thick rubber and protects your lenses really well. Another bag protects the selfie stick nicely.A stick that's beautifully well made, indeed this is one of the best sticks I've got. In some ways I'm not surprised because I've got loads of K&F Concept products. A brand that I really like simply because their stuff is just so well made while being reasonably affordable.And this one is no exception to that rule, especially how the stick is made totally from aluminium. Something that feels strong, smooth and durable and most importantly has a nice weight to it. Something that's got that just right balance of not too light and not too heavy.It's also easy to extend, reaching just under a metre and once extended doesn't flex much and stays stable. Plus I like how the top has the ability to 'flip' 180 degrees. A feature that can be used creatively, but also means the stick can be put into pockets.There's even a 1/4-inch thread on the base, so I can attach this to other kit like tripods, brackets or bars. Though it does have one feature that can be both good and bad, the quick release interface. While it's really quick to attach/detach and is also nicely secure, it's a proprietary interface.So if you've got one of the Insta360 series, it's brilliant especially as it's cheaper than official kit. But if you have a Osmo or a Go-Pro style connector, you're out of luck. Yes you can buy a 1/4 and 2-prong mount quick release kit, but (at the time of this review) these adaptors can cost more than this stick does.Overall ? If you have a Insta360 this one's a must have. But if you like to switch between different cameras you'll either need to get a quick release kit or get creative.
