I was skeptical at the price (10 inc. Despatch!) For a new product. Especially since I was already branded by the voher cheap "entry-level tripods" from Hama, the way all are more expensive than this one. When unpacking, I was but then pleasantly surprised. The tripod comes with a really thick high strength fabric holster and belt and zipper. Not as so often just a millimeter thinner kids sports bag with elastic :-)
I can only say what you get for this price there is super to stand itself! Sure it even comes from China although here of "eSmart Germany" is mentioned, but nevertheless: Well made, stable, level, and especially a quick release plate. The stand will be sent anscheined its manufacture well lubricated / oiled.
