Overall, I really like this tripod. It's very light, easy to use and looks cool! Opening and locking the legs is a quick process and fairly durable. My complaints are minor; Like the other reviewer, I found that the rubber feet loosen and need tightening quite often. The hex bolts holding the legs are also loose and you'll need two wrenches to tighten them, one on each side. The ring that fixes the bar is tightened with difficulty. Finally, the carrying case that comes with it is too small. To set up a tripod, you must fold and flip all of the legs, essentially turning the tripod inside out. It's a little annoying when I go for a walk and have to repeat the operation over and over again. If the bag were a few inches longer, I could just fold the tripod up and put it in the bag.
