I've had many-a-tripod. This one is compact and sturdy. It is replacing an octopus style that just wouldn't stay where I wanted it. It also is great for all different heights. Now, it's not HUGE...but it can squonch down and also deal with those places I need greater height. I do a lot of online teaching and sometimes I need my phone to be a document camera, or a slightly overhead camera...this does it. It also is nice for a different angle on a talking-head shot. Great little tripod at a nice price point. OH, and the screw mount fits all my cameras (web, point and shoot/dslr), and the phone mount works great on my phone. With what I own, it doesn't work with my iPad...but nothing is perfect. Read more
I bought this tripod to use with my gimbal because when I attach my phone, the gimbal can’t stand on its own—especially when I’m filming outside for vlogging. This tripod completely solved that problem. The quality is excellent for the price, and it’s lightweight enough to carry around but strong enough to stay stable. I’m honestly so glad I purchased this—definitely a must-have if you use a gimbal for videos. Highly recommend! 👍📱🎥 Read more

This is a great tripod to use at your desk. I recently bought a webcam for my desktop. This tripod was the first in the list for my search. I did look at others and came back to this one. Others didn't offer as many adjustments. The added clip allows me to use my cellphone, a nice feature to have included. I was able to easily use the top of the tripod to attach my webcam. The swivel top allows me to move point the camera at an angle, which helps when I am doing things at my desk that I want to record. There are 2 adjustments in the center to adjust the height. This allows me to raise the camera up, without making the base of the tripod wider. The rubber feet keep the tripod in place. I have a real wood desk with a slick finish, and things slide on my desk all the time. I don't have to worry about my camera falling over or moving. This tripod is not expensive, but the quality is amazing. If you are thinking about making a purchase, please do it. I have not found anything negative about this tripod. Read more
It's a decent compact tripod. The metal base feels sturdy and quite solid without being heavy. I like that the legs are adjustable, and you can have them be quite narrow or quite wide. The telescoping center moves smoothly. The phone clip feels a bit cheaper; it's a solid plastic, and the spring is quite strong, and I like that it can be screwed on on one end or on the back. It may not open large enough for larger phones, though. The 360 head is also metal and feels quite solid. The only problem (and the reason I'm knocking off 2 stars) is that the screw hole in the bottom of the 360 head, where it's supposed to screw onto the top of the telescoping post, doesn't fit. The screw on the telescoping part isn't the right size. The mounting screw on the head and its socket are the same size (as are all of the other screws on this tripod, actually), which seems to be the standard camera mount size, but the threaded top of the post is bigger. The head doesn't screw onto the post properly, which means it doesn't stay on well at all. If I get it to the right spot, I can kind of screw it in a tiny bit (maybe half a turn) so that it'll stay for long enough to use, but if someone knocks it over, it might dislodge. The 360 head fits my webcam's mount socket, which was my goal in purchasing this tripod. The phone clip holds my phone well at most angles, but I still worry about the head falling off the post after a while when the camera is tilted significantly. The image attached shows the maximum amount I can screw the top onto the post. I don't think there's supposed to be that gap with the threads visible. Read more
Great product ! Read more
The stand holds the camera steadily and at the right height (you can look up the ideal height for a cam session - seems that the camera should be at forehead height). I appreciate the extras - an excellent gripper if you would rather use your phone instead of a camera and a swivel adjuster if you are not looking for 90 degrees (or if you have to place the stand on an angled surface. Excellent value for a well thought-through and executed product. Read more
