Broken2010-07-22
the item arrived with a broken handle which holds the camera toghtly in place. I contacted the seller but never got a response. It was an 8.00 plus item for which the shipping cost back to him may have been more than a refund of my purchase price so I guess I just ate it.
Made of cheap plastic; arrived with 3 broken parts2008-03-01
I received this tripod as a gift. It has been a while since I have seen such a flimsy product as this. It is made of low quality plastic and very thin aluminum. On top of all that, it arrived with 3 broken pieces. I would not buy this for any amount.
great service2006-08-11
I would have done this sooner but we have a some family emergencies come up and I haven't done it. I got my item fast and with no problem. The tri-pod was in wonderful condition and the price was great!
Paid $13 - Worth $132006-02-24
I guess all the budget tripods are probably similar. I was a bit disappointed by how cheaply made the tripod is. It's just a bunch of plastic which makes me worried about bending a leg or snapping off a cheap joint.

But it does do the job. It's too light to be very steady, but it holds your camera and allows you stability in the absence of wind. It has a hood on the bottom from which you can tie a bag of rocks for extra stability. And it comes with two quick-change plates - a nice feature for such a budget item.
Great P&S Tripod2005-11-18
This tripod is very good. The only one bad thing I can think of is all the plastic. The knobs and crank are all plastic, giving this tripod a cheap feeling.
