It is my first tripod and I can only recommend it. The material seems to be stable, yet it is very light and handy. The camera sits firmly with me and everything works as it should.
The accompanying carrying bag is also extremely practical!
Clear purchase recommendation!
Pro
The tripod was a good investment. It is light, easy to adjust and adapt to my needs. It stands very securely, which is very important. For the great price, it even came with a carrying bag. I can only recommend the tripod. Price, workmanship and handling are really great.
Satisfactory.
The camera (Canon EOS 60D and small camcorder as equipment) holds relatively tight. I wasn't afraid to put my expensive Canon SLR camera on the tripod and do a few (albeit misappropriated) moves with it.
A very good price / performance ratio! Design technically also very good.
The bag iist however very cheaply produced and poorly finished. But after 2 1/2 years, the bag and the tripod still holds.

Super tripod.Despite the good price it does not feel "cheap". For me it's perfectly enough to make hobby long shots, filming, etc. The spirit level seems to be more pro forma but in principle it has one. :)

very good price-performance ratio
light and good to wear
The carrying case is not very high quality, but functional and corresponds to the price.
The snaps on the stand legs are pleasantly quick to use.
You might think that a tripod at such a low price can be neither qualitative nor stable. Wrong thought! Because I accidentally got my hands on an EOS 60D and the comet Neowise was in orbit, I wanted to try my hand at astrophotography. A cheap tripod was needed at short notice. I didn't have high expectations for it. And I was completely surprised how well the tripod did its job. It was very stable, with a solid stand, a very large freedom of movement (axes) and with good locking screws. The quite heavy camera was easily carried without changing the orientation. Even exposures of several minutes produced good images (well, unfortunately no good comet images because of clouds :-). Neither vibrations by the wind, nor self-adjusting axes made problems with long exposures. The locking of the axes is a bit slow but solid. Also the included carrying bag is very handy when you are on the road.
Sure, for this application it fits really well. As a film tripod, where the camera should be moved as smoothly as possible, it is certainly no good. But for fixed motifs, it is a perfect purchase, if you do not have the claim to professional photography.
