The tripod is almost completely made of metal and makes a very solid impression. The paint was perfectly in my case. When folded, the tripod is pleasant round and located with the additional recesses comfortably in your hand. So you can well use the tripod as a handle for films.
The ends are coated with hard rubber to ensure a good stand. Strangely enough, the stand just on my (IKEA) table quite slippery. On other surfaces, it is quite slippery.
Conclusion: Great and solid Tischstativ
