Was looking for light weight yet rigid and versatile tripod. I’ve owned at least 7 tripods so far and this is by far the best! I researched a lot of models from very expensive to Walmart types. Went and saw tripods at Walmart, Best Buy pro photography stores etc. The ones that felt sturdy were very heavy and expensive the ones that were under $100 and $50 range were either too flimsy and bad quality or no functionality.Compared prices, brands and very glad I chose this one. Very light yet feels very strong and sturdy. Very functional. It’s also beautifully made, folds compact and when open its stands tall I’m 6’1” tall and can stand straight without bending back and look through camera view finder.The carry bag itself talks about overall quality. It’s a very well made bag with thick padding inside and not just a thin nylon bag.Time should tell how this fairs in field. I’m going to use this for my Canon 70D, for travel and semi pro photography.There’s nothing in market at this price for this quality from what I researched and saw.

I needed a light tripod and did not want to pay a lot. What can you say about a $100.00 tripod. It performs well, folds up neatly and weighs only a few pounds. While I would not use it in heavy winds, it is just great for everyday use. I like the snap leg locks over the twist ones.

I had to return to the product as the centre axis was a little angled, but I assume this is just specific to the particular tripod i received. That being said, I wasn't really satisfied with what they consider a "quick release" plate. I'd consider it more of a clamp as you have to screw the plate onto the camera (normal), but you have to also screw the camera plate back onto the tripod as well. I'm used to quick-release tripods having more of a lever, not a screw. Otherwise it seems like a great, lightweight tripod.

Awesome! light weight, really smooth head, and the build is stable.I would say it's good to travel with because it comes with a carrying case.

Honestly, this is the best gadget I bought so far. Very good product. The tripod is made of very good, strong and solid material. It is firm on the floor and doesn't shake at all. Easy to mount a camera on it. Comes with a bag that makes it easy to carry around. I use it regularly with my DSLR. I highly recommend it.

The only thing I didn't like was the quality of the quick release plate. I felt it should be made with more quality such as steel rather than the plastic. Overall nice equipment for the price.
