The item is an incredible value. Fully extended, I don't need to bend over. An S-Clip hangs it off your belt and you forget you have it. I can't find anything to crab about. The final leg, when extended, does not as another reviewer said, make it wobbly. The oval cross section prevents that, although you want the major cross-sectional axis lined up between you and the scene. Its intuiutive. This for fifteen bucks delivered?

I absolutely love this monopod. It's light weight, compact and easy to use. It has a neat little cover to protect the thread on top, being so compact I can easily attach it to my camera bag so that it is always there when I need to steady my camera and take a shot. I generally do macro shots so it's very important to isolate any vibration or movement while taking the shot. There are many times where a standard tripod might be inappropriate to setup, ie. a crowded flower show, but this monopod allows me to mount my camera, stop for a moment in a crowd and take the photos I want. The various height selections makes it perfect in many different settings. So far I've not noticed anything that is not great about this product.

I mainly use this for travel so it can fit in my carry on. Mainly used for remote overheads with a 5d body and 16-35. Wouldn't be comfortable with anymore than that above my head. Extending completely to the smallest shaft makes it a little "bendy" but I just try to be careful. I even use it for short periods with a 300 f2.8, but I wouldn't trust it in a run and gun sports environment. Very light, so I can strap it to a waist pack and barely notice it. Overall, it has limits, but I'm pleased.

Like the product lot. Great design and nice tight locks. Is a little short in fully extended length for me and I am average height.

Nice little monopod, folds up smaller than most. Sturdy construction with good clips to hold sections in place. The wrist strap is nice as well. The bottom most section is a bit small, so may wobble in use, if you don't need the extra height, might want to skip extending the last section. Good for small, light SLR's or PnS, not quite sturdy enough for bigger heavier cameras.
