Had mine for over 10 years and still works like new. Unlike other arms, this one has 2 clips so that you can hold round reflectors form both sides not just the top. I use it to hold round and square reflectors, diffusion panels, even small relatively light back drops for product photography.

Not perfect but what really is these days. If you use it in a studio setting it is fine. Traveling on site the plastic tips can get damage. Be kind and this will last.

This is one of the most useful items I've purchased this year. It eliminates the need to have someone hold a reflector for you. I love the rotating ballhead, which allows you to position the reflector in almost anyway you might need. It is very sturdy and feels like it will last forever. Highly recommended, a real bargain!

This works a treat to lock your reflectors in place while shooting in the studio or on location with a small studio style setup. I have used a competitor's product before ( I think it was a Manfrotto) and was not impressed with the build quality. I was a little hesitant at first but I have a Halo and 30" reflector from Wescott and I'm happy with the quality. This is no exception and I would always consider the brand when it comes to future products.

Grabs and holds all my small reflectors. Does not flinch or move by itself. Adjusts to all the right angles.

Sturdy strong arm will give great support to your reflector and hold it tight. Depending on the light stand and reflector size you use it with you may need a sand bag or some kind of weight to keep the stand stable.

I use this reflector arm for studio work and find that it allows me to put the reflector in the exact position that I need with easy. This arm has great flexibility in its use and appears well constructed in my use of it thus far.

I use this in conjuction with the Monte Illuminator as a fill source with a main light for my portrait sessions. If you work alone, as I do, it's wonderful for a fill that doesn't move once placed.

Although the materials and craftsmanship is good the design of the friction control handle in the dual ball pivot area is lacking. I broke the friction control handle the first and second time I used this product. [...]. I have replaced the plastic handle with a metal wing nut and tightened the pretension nut and bolt. I now have a reflector holder that works very well and at a great price. The holder works well with many different sized reflectors and acts as a one handhold grip when on location without an assistant or stand.
