I love the flexibility of the legs

This review is a little late. So it didn't even last 6 months. I love the flexibility of the legs. The rotation of the head was a little obstructed by the joint the head set in. The tightening mechanism was the first to see damage apparently it can be tightened too much. It's just a screw that pulls two pieces of plastic closer to be closer together and the plastic itself started to crack. With that being said it's one of those things where you now you know so just don't tighten it as much it's not as necessary. The final straw was in the head the piece that actually clamps down onto the phone there's a socket where the joint is attached to the Head it's basically a metal piece In Case by the plastic which is the base of the head well the plastic broke and now the metal piece that I'm assuming is the part of the joint will go back in there but if weight is applied will fall back off again. Sure I could hot glue or super glue it back on but at this point I haven't tried it yet. Last little mention on the bottom of the head there is rubber cushion which is supposed to protect the phone itself it seems to be just a sticker that was stuck to the plastic because of corner of it was already starting to pull up as if it wasn't measured properly it hung over the edge. Every time I put the phone in it would lift up a little more and I have to put it back down Minor Detail sure. All in all you get what you pay for it was very inexpensive
