Solid, light, reliable tripod
What I liked about this was how compact and light it is.
It worked well with my heavy telephoto lens Sigma 60-600mm which comes in at a little over 6lbs. There was no real drooping and it felt secure on the tripod.
This is a great accessory if you're going to be hiking, or traveling to keep your weight down on the gear that you're carrying.
It has a middle post. Some may or may not like that, but I really appreciate having the middle post to avoid having to extend the legs further. Especially depending on the terrain that I'm on and the space that I have.
I have 3 different K&F tripods that I have for different uses, and this one does not disappoint.

What I didn't like is that the ball head and parts are all plastic. While it's secure, and quality materials, I can be rough with gear like this, and there's a long term risk with that.

I don't have any other things that I don't like. I also want to add that while my dislike is due to the plastic material on the ball head, it does not disappoint in functionality. You're going to have a very difficult time finding a quality, light tripod that is going to hold a heavy lens anywhere near this price point.

With that price point trade off, long term viability is ok with me because it would not break the bank if I ever needed to replace it, or the ball head. I do have spare ball heads that are not plastic that I can swap out for this one as I have gimbals as well.

This product also performs when attaching my gimbal too it.

Overall, you're not going to be disappointed with this purchase.
