Light in weight, light in price, but heavy in value, the SLIK U series of economy tripods have proved to be so popular and successful that they have been knocked-off by many companies, but none have been able to match the quality and value performance of these versatile tripods.Every tripod in the series is less than 2 feet long when completely folded and weigh less than 3.5 lbs for easy traveling.The SLIK U series have many other features that the casual photographer and family videographer will come to love.The Upper grade U9000 model features rubber/spike leg tips and a bubble level.

Nice, tight, travel tripod.
For a lightweight travel tripod, this is well built. Tight, no wiggles. Seriously don't waste your time on the cheaper "off brands" because you will wind up returning them and buying one like this for a few dollars more. Definitely worth the extra few bucks.

Light weight, light touch
It seems good. The feel is that of a fluid head, but quite light - it glides instead of sticking. My only complaint is that the lever is on the left and my right-handedness doesn't like that.

Good bargain tripod.
Inexpensive, heavy, built tough. You would not want to carry this around. Great for studio setups. You would have to try really hard to break this.

Nice indoor tripod
This tripod is a good buy for the money but do not use it outside as I would worry about the stability in a windy environment.

I love this tripod
I love this tripod. I use it with my camera and with a paint box. I'm getting another one. Well made.

Adjustment lever broke and poor support
It's a cheap but usable tripod. You get what you pay for. I was satisfied with it until the fold out height adjustment lever snapped where the pin goes through. Clearly poor design.I called the company and because it was out of warranty they would not fix it for free. I would have to pay for the replacement part that they would send me but that would then require a specialized tool (rivet extractor) which I did not have so I could not fix it myself.I do not consider this to be a company that stands behind their products and will not buy another SLIK product again.
