Sturdy and good quality for the price
For the price I wasn't expecting too much if I'm honest, a tripod with ball head and horizontal column for this sort of money doesn't sound that likely to be great. However I'm pleasantly surprised.
The ball head is pretty smooth and has an Arka compatible top plate on it so my Z6 with Mieke grip fit straight onto it. There's a bubble level that's easy to see even with the camera in place, which is nice as a few I've seen end up difficult to see once a camera is mounted.
The centre column has a section that can be flipped to be horizontal which could be useful at times. It's reasonably compact when folded up, and comes with a nice quality padded carry bag with a shoulder strap as well. The legs have 3 positions and one gets the centre column pretty close to the ground so low level shots should be ok. I do like the option to remove one leg and attach the ball head to it as a monopod, very clever and really handy so you don't have to carry one of each with you when packing.
For the money I'd say this is a good buy. I can't comment on durability yet but it's good so far.
