Excellent value from a reputable brand
I love the size, stability, and quality of this tripod! Everything about this tripod feels mature, thoughtful, and polished. The rubber twist locks are thick, strong, and comfortable. The height is surprisingly good for a tall person like me. There are some heavy-duty plastic components, including the base plate. But they seem very high-quality.As far as travel tripods go, this is going to be the most sturdy. I tried other brands including the MeFoto backpacker (which is amazingly small and light) but it was too short for me and not stable enough to hold my large Canon DSLR and lenses. Other brands may offer almost the same height, but with the last leg segment barely thicker than a pencil.I also tried and returned two other non name-brand carbon fiber tripods which had the weight allowance but not the stability of legs due to rather flimsy carbon fiber legs fully extended. Finally, after a few weeks of searching, I decided to go with this Manfrotto because of the name brand and other positive reviews (elsewhere) for its stability.Other new brands seem nice but I was concerned about quality control issues and do not foresee these companies standing by their product like an established brand will. I wanted to love the carbon fiber tripods -- who wouldn't be exited about a 79" carbon fiber tripod for $99?!At the end of the day, I felt most comfortable placing my $2,000 Canon DSLR + zoom lenses on this tripod. I even walked around with the camera attached and the legs extended. No concern of the camera coming loose.If you're looking for a travel tripod, this is not going to be the lightest of the bunch. But it is still light and one of the best values out there by a reputable brand.

Light and sturdy
This tripod is exactly what I need to carry with me. As a landscape photographer, my kit can get pretty heavy. This tripod is the perfect travel partner when you need a tripod but don't want it to weigh a ton.

Sturdy and flexible
Used this to remote video with my phone. Worked great. The tripod is very sturdy ( my last one broke when flimsy plastic cracked). This was easy to set up and manipulate for the perfect view.
