Title: You get what you pay for. . .
Review: This product is sufficient for the price, but if you're trying to use it for anything that a tripod is used for in more than the most amateur attempts, this just doesn't cut it. The legs are very thin aluminum tubing (careful, it will BEND if you are rough with it) and the hardware that connects everything is cheap, loose plastic. It is very hard to get the camera on and off the mount, because you're always scared of breaking something. It is also very hard to tighten it down so that it actually holds the camera steady (even torqued down, mine will still shift if it's bumped.) If you want a cheap tripod to hold your cheap digital camera, this is for you. But if you need a sturdy base for your DSLR or expensive video camera, then look elsewhere. And by the way, the little mini-tripod in the handle is useless. It's too short and the legs are not adjustable - might as well just set the camera straight on the table instead of on the tripod on the table.
