What I liked about the JOBY GorillaPod 3K PRO was that it was much more stable than my old non-brand tripod. It's strong, stable and somewhat light. I wouldn't worry about it being a tad heavier than my old stand because it makes up for it with its heavy-duty strength. I can drop it from medium height and it won't break. What I didn't like was that when I tried to wrap it around the fence, one of the pieces fell off one of the legs. It was very difficult trying to put it back on, I almost sent it back. Luckily I was finally able to put it back on and I haven't tried wrapping it since. I wouldn't recommend wrapping it in anything lest the same thing happen to you.
