K&F Concept X-Series 68 inch/172cm Carbon Fiber Camera Tripod,Professional Photography Tripod with 36mm Metal Ball Head Load Capacity 16KG/35.2lbs for Indoor Outdoor Use X284C4+BH-36

What a product, very sturdy and compact, easy to assemble, great for close-up photos but also for distance photography, one of the best products I have bought this year

Fantastically stable, great twist locks on legs, love the tripod. Only one slight point I will make is the ball head does seem to come loose when rotating the 360 degree axis, I have sort of stopped this by making a thin rubber disc washer for the two parts to clamp on when tightened up. Would be nice if K&F supplied say a silicone washer for this purpose. But all in all it truly is a great stable piece of kit!UPDATE: Had an issues with the ball head coming loose after rotating the ball head. Contacted K&F Concepts directly, I have to say what fantastic Customer Services, very responsive, very helpful. They sent me another tripod! Fantastic supplier of quality products and can highly recommend them!!

Solid tripod that delivers what it states. Simple and effective with a great payload capability. Much better than my manfrotto which cost £250

Great Price superb Tripod beautiful build quality, and with Amazon's leginary service cannot be beaten.Thanks Amazon.

Quality is not what I expected, I test it home, I think is not resistant enough for windy days, which is the reason why I purchased it, I have not used, therefor I will refund it. This is the types of item that cannot be purchased online.

This K&F tripod seems very well made from nice anodised aluminium. It’s very sturdy even fully extended. I purchased this version due to the extra load it’s able to take, up to 15kg. I use mine as a shooting tripod for target shooting.Everything locks together nice and securely so far, nothing has come loose.Like most other tripods it can rotate and lock into multiple angles.What else is there to say? It’s all very nice quality, well put together, light, easy to use, doesn’t sway or move around when in use and is firmly planted with none slip feet.Also comes with a handy travel bag.

Looks very similar to another brand but this is a third of the price but don’t let that put you off.I’ve used it a few times now and it’s a great bit of kit, best tripod I’ve had so far. Build quality is good and it’s very sturdy.

I like how solid and compact the tripod is made and how compact it folds up, however i really dislike the unstable rubber feet that keep flipping up randomly so that you have to keep bending down to reposition the rubber feet after they repeatedly flip back on themselves everytime you use it. Another concern is that the tripod degree angle of leg spread when fully spread is not very wide nor does it appear to be standard so it feels like the tripod is at too steep an angle and that it could be much easier to tip the whole thing over than the cheaper K&F tripod that has a slightly wider degree of leg spread, this compact tripod has a few degrees less spread and it does not feel quite as reassuring as the 50% cheaper K&F models. So because of these issues i gave it 3 stars and returned my model for a refund and i will continue using the cheaper K&F model version.In my opinion if the feet had been round or had retractable metal studs like on the cheaper K&F £60 model this tripod would have been near perfect. The feet are the big let down on this model, and that leg spread needs to be slightly wider. Why on earth they changed the feet design to articulated rubber feet is beyond me, the old solid unscrew way was/is much much better in my opinion. If one foot flips up the entire tripod is off level and unstable.
