Amazingly light, compact and stable.
Even though I read the reviews, I was still surprised by the compact size and weight of this tripod. The components are all quality, it's well made. I'm 6'1" (185cm) tall and use a Pentax K1 with battery grip and 24-70mm f2.8 lens. It's a tall, heavy camera setup. My immediate concern was that the tripod will be too short and if I flip the camera vertically the tripod might fall over. To my surprise, fully extended, the camera viewfinder is almost too high for me. This places the lens over the heads of most people if you're in a crowd and most DSLR cameras have a tiltable LCD screen for viewing anyway. Its also quite stable for its weight. Horizontal or vertical, the camera was in no danger of falling. I wouldn't risk it on a windy day though.
On the ballhead there are 3 separate knobs to lock rotation, ball tilt and camera base plate. All very solid. The baseplate also has a really nice bubble level and a compass that will help you align the tripod to North for astrophotography.
If you're a hiker or traveler, I highly recommend this for the price / performance ratio.

Very simple
Easy to operate. Very good quality and value for money, very good. I am completely satisfied.

It is a lightweight tripod ideal for field work.
The shipping service was good and efficient, the equipment arrived in excellent condition, it arrived as described on the page and is what they promised.

Finally the right thing!
In addition to a large and quite heavy tripod that I use in the studio and for tabletops, I needed one for when I'm on the go that doesn't weigh me down unnecessarily. After having two other travel tripods from Amazon, both of which I sent back because they were too big and too heavy at more than 1.5 kg, I finally have a real travel tripod. The pack size and weight are just right for when I'm on the go and it's still stable enough. It has the functions I need and is quick to set up. With the accompanying (stylish) carrying bag, it's great to take with me on my bike rides and hikes. There's just one thing I don't like - and not just with this tripod - why is the strap on the bag so short and therefore impractical? I'd like to carry it diagonally over my shoulder. I'm 1.83 m tall and I can just about fit it under my armpit. Unfortunately, the strap is also firmly attached so it can't be replaced. But that doesn't detract from the tripod itself and so I'm giving it 5 stars anyway.

Great tripod
I think with this tripod K&F really knocked it off the park. It is extremely light and almost unnoticeable when carrying it. It is sturdy and I never had an issue with it. Thanks for a great product at a competitive price.

Great height, versitile light weight sturdy tripod! Value for money!
I am a professional architecture and interior photographer and also do videography. Was looking for a tripod that is light yet stable and sturdy (since my equipment can be heavy i.e. tilt shift/telezoom lenses, and expensive). This K&F tripod ticked all the boxes and the price point is perfect.
This tripod has an excellent and smooth quick release system which is important for me especially when moving from location to location during the critical lighting window for outdoor shots.
The tripod's height is impressive and it can be extended with an option to attach additional weight at the centre of gravity point to make it even more secure.
I personally prefer twist locks for the tripod legs, although this is definitely a matter of personal preference. The legs can also be extended outwards using the quick release clip to have an even lower height. This may be particularly helpful when trying to get a lower vantage point for artistic reasons, such as when focussing on the foreground.
Would definitely reccomend as a studio or outdoor tripod or even for events and travel! Carbon fiber tripods are ideal for travelling.

Very good with 2 small weaknesses
I bought the carbon tripod because I finally wanted a ball head :-). The tripod is incredibly light and remains very stable. The screw caps can be easily opened and then securely fastened again. The camera sits perfectly on the ball joint and is then super adjustable. The fixing screws are easy to move and yet very easy to fix. When the camera is attached to the ball head mount with the plate, the spirit level is on the side of the screen, where it suits me. BUT the wheel to fix the plate is then on the side of the lens. With my Sigma, however, the rotary knob is almost on the lens. There are only tenths to hundredths between the rotary knob and the lens. Otherwise the tripod is a recommendation: - Weight - stability - size - flexibility - rapid deployment

Great tripod for all hobby photographers
This tripod can be set up quickly and easily. It is very flexibly adjustable in size up to approx. 171 cm. The individual feet can also be perfectly adapted to different heights. The monopod can be extended up to 181 cm. There is also a small spirit level on the ball head which shows whether the tripod is straight. Since it is made of aluminum, it makes a stable and high-quality impression. As can be seen in the photo, the camera can also be mounted from below (upside down) for close-ups. There is also a practical pouch for transporting it. I can definitely recommend the product because it is very stable and looks good too. It is perfect for every hobby photographer.

Good Quality!
Doing a quick review on a Tripod my wife bought for me. As soon as you open the box it is a WOW. Feels very sturdy and comes with a really nice case. The best part is it's size! Comparing it to my old one which was also a gift and you can see the difference :) The locking mechanism at the top is very simple and easy to install and remove. On my old one I lost a part as there were too many little pieces.

On Par with other Travel Tripods
This is the first tripod I've bought in a loooooooong time. Most of my shots these days comes from a smartphone that's being handheld so I was really looking forward to buying this for my XT4. All and all this is an amazing tripod for the price and there isn't a whole lot more you could reasonably ask for it.
Pros
- This thing is feature rich. It has a gear hook, monopod, and the ball head assembly is entirely removable which really helps distribute the weight of the thing when it's hanging off the side of a bag.
- Smooth actuation. Sometimes the locks get in the way of breaking it down but I'm actually listing this as a pro. If you actuate the legs to their furthest position at each stop then try to push them any further the locks will really get in the way. This means that if your leg is going to give way on terrain it's going to stop pretty easy.
- Plenty tall when you extend the center column. I'm 6' and I can bring my camera to eye level easily.
Cons
- This thing is not light. It's on par for other aluminum tripods but if you're really looking to drop your weight look into carbon fiber.
- The monopod leg is SLIGHTLY shorter than the rest of the other legs. This isn't too big of a problem if you take some time to balance the other two legs. It's also not a problem if you're shooting landscape and wildlife and you're already going to have an uneven distribution between the legs.
Missing/Neutral
- No threads to put feet or screws on the bottom of the mount. Not a problem for me but do be advised that if you're shooting on sand or water and you want feet it could be an issue. Not sure why you'd buy this tripod for that purpose at this price point anyway.
