What makes this tripod most valuable is it's light weight, compactness and portability. It's not my favorite tripod I own, but it's my favorite tripod to grab and go or travel with. Compared to traditional tripods, this thing is half the carry size and way lighter.

LIKES:
-Size!!! It's so compact and has no bulk. Easy to stash away.
-Weight. Very light and easy to carry.
-Small but highly functional camera mount.
-Ball head locks super tight with a simple thumb lever.
-360* panoramic head with separate tightening knob
-Nice carry case with interior pocket.

DISLIKES:
-A little unstable, especially at small bottom legs, at full expansion
-Not a big fan of twist thread locks on the legs. Personal preference of thumb latches.
-Fold down arm locks are the pull out/push in type. Prefer the push release ones.
-All the moving mechanisms are a little stiff, but i think they'll work in nicely.

OVERALL:
Perhaps a little nit-picky to give it 4 stars. If you're looking for the most compact and light weight full size tripod, this is 5 stars! But it just lacks some 5 star features and overall quality, but it is right there and a great tripod!
