Duration of ownership: 2 Months
Strengths: Great for a variety of terrain, rocks, tables, etc. It looks very interesting and seems to be something that will hold up.
Weaknesses:Stability, for shots that require having the shutter delayed, or shots taken through a period of time, this tripod just won't cut it.
Overall Evaluation: Good but with certain limitations that will not effect most people. Chirs @ SterlingTEK Batteries

Duration of ownership: 1 Weeks
Strengths: Inexpensive, compact and portable, allows for all kinds of camera positions
Weaknesses:droops a little sometimes
Overall Evaluation: This little tripod is well worth the price. My teenaged "artist" loves taking off beat and unusual perspectives. This little tripod really fits the bill. The price is not outrageous and so even those amateurs can use it for successful picture taking.

Duration of ownership: 2 Days
Strengths: holds onto just about anything, the feet are grippy, the legs are easy to bend and hold their position
Weaknesses:While it is more portable than a regular tripod, it takes up a bit of space in a backpack.
Overall Evaluation: My husband and I have been able to take pictures with both of us in the shot pretty easily. It is much sturdier than I thought it would be, and it balances pretty effortlessly with the camera.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Very versatile. You can bend the supporting legs almost any angles you want.
Weaknesses:It won't support heavy cameras. My Olympus won't stay the position I want since it droops down often.
Overall Evaluation: Longer legs are better, and the screw that connects to the camera becomes loose easily. Yet it is a very nicely designed tripod, and looks cute. Especially useful for light point and shoot cameras.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: Versatile; can work anywhere; Strong legs allow the tripod to be around anything!
Weaknesses:Lock/Unlock ring very hard to twist
Overall Evaluation: This product is amazing. In a pinch, when you are out, or you have no one to take a group picture for you, this product is a savior. I even started going into setting and thinking where i could put it. You can even put it in places to add some flavor to your photography that you never thought you had. Well recommended.The only drawback I saw is the detachable piece. Apparently, to make your tripod more secure, they have a detachable piece you can screw into your camera. However, the ring that you use to lock and unlock is so hard to twist because of the size and slippery-ness. Minor gripe, so I just leave it locked.
