This is a unique a good priced tripod for many devices. The three legs are very bendable to adjust to whatever angle you need for your devices line of sight. Upon ordering this tripod it came with the tripod stand, and adjustable screw in plate, and a small felt bag to keep it in.
To start with the tripod legs are very cool. YOu can bend them to almost any degree or angle you need. This includes even wrapping it around a bar to hold it in place. The legs are made with a hard plastic coating and have rubber tips for the feet. Each of the hard plastic sections has a silicone band around them as well. The legs of the tripod are about 6 inches in height.
Next is the screw in mount holder. This is a very simple construction that works very well. It screws into the top of the tripod and has a spring loaded holder. There is a small rubber tip to pull the spring up. This spring pulls the area apart to hold your device with the rubber tip. I have used it to hold my smart phone and web cam with out any problems. It is desinged to handle most standard size devices. If you have a large screen phone or tablet it will not hold it is side this spring clamp. If your phone has the matching size of screw hole standard in it you can attach it directly without using this spring plate.
The bag that comes with the tripod is not the best in the world, but it does get the job done. However it could have been 1 inch deeper to make it a lot easier to get the tripod in the bag completely and easily. The bag does make it where you can locate all the pieces in one place I believe to be its main and only purpose since it is pretty low grade.
If you are in the market for decent tripod at a great price, this is for sure a great product to try out and consider. It seems to be fairly durable for the cost as well. It is super easy to set up and use as well. I would like to thank Echen inc and affiliates for sending me this tripod to try out and share my opinion.
