I was going to get another stand that was $20, but I read the reviews here of the people who bought a cheap one, and then eventually they came here for the quality one. So, I took a leap and bought this one first. Wow, I'm so glad I did!!! Here are some comments about how it works (for video-ing newbies like me). Btw, I'm not getting paid to leave this review. I'm just a regular girl who bought this. I don't even know without looking who makes this. (I'm saying these things since you can never be too sure these days.) Okay, here's my opinion: 1. The setup is super simple. Just 4 steps, and no tools required. If you are going to use this for your phone, I figured out that you can skip step 3 because it's already setup for a phone (there's an adapter for things other than a phone). 2. It's very sturdy. Some people complained in their reviews that the stand gets in the video. Anyone who says that doesn't understand all the ways this contraption can be positioned. The telescoping pole goes way up high if you want. It's nuts. Plus, the ball joint thingies move all over the place, and then you tighten them when you get them in the position you want. It's totally brilliant. The only way you'd get the stand in the frame is if you don't take 10 seconds to adjust it. 3. It's heavy. The base isn't going to fall over. Some people said in their reviews that it tipped over. Either they were leaving a review for the wrong thing, or they hooked up some super heavy professional camera to this thing. If you are using it with phone, there's no way it's going to tip over. It's way to heavy for that. 4. It holds the phone securely. You won't have to worry about your phone falling out. The grip is very tight. I have to use 2 hands to open it and get my phone in there. The spring that holds it in grips it like a vice. There's no way it's falling out. 5. The fact that this has a wide base so you can set it anywhere is so much better than the cheapy ones that have to screw onto a table. Again, mucho versatility. This one is a little pricey, but imho, it's worth every penny!!! This stand + the Open Camera app + a lavalier microphone = #winning Omg, my videos look sooooo good!!! Thank you!!! 🎉🥳

This stand is built very sturdy. It’s perfect for any position you need due to the multiple segments.

This was exactly what I was looking for to enhance my Kodak Mini Projector for art projects. Very sturdy with a weighty base that keeps the projector's image exactly where I want it. A very solid recommendation.

I wanted to give this five stars, but the set up is just a little bit too time consuming sometimes to be a perfect product. To be fair, I think the lengthy set up is why you have such a solid recording stand, and it's reliable once you get it into the right position. It can definitely take time to set up in the position you want, though, which sometimes stops me from using it, and instead I will reach for something easier to set up. I do really like the product though, and if you are shooting from above, it's very reliable. When I have it in place and doing an over the top shot, I know that it is not going to slip or move or end up in any position other than the one I put it in.

I like everything about this product from its sturdiness and flexibility to the ease of assembly. I like that it came with components for holding a phone or attaching a projector. It makes using it more versatile. I purchased it to use with a mini projector to project templates onto cookies. Since using it I found I can also use it to hold my phone while recording how to DIY videos.

This is a must have if you’re a cookie decorator.

While waiting for the delivery an hour ago, I was reading all the reviews and saw one star review because of the base that was showing during recording. As soon as the product arrived, I've set it up and see for myself... I think you just have to put the camera away from the base so it won't show and make sure to use the right height too, if you maximize the height, you can still a little of the base. For me, it really worked perfectly! Now, with the additional extension... when I've added and tested, it doesn't hold much and sadly it slowly goes down. I'm using iPhone 6, haven't tried the 6 plus and camera. Maybe the total weight of the 3 shaft and adapters is really heavy for one knob to hold. If it will, it might break the plastic that holds the knob. For me, the 2 shaft works fine. For future improvements, I'm not sure how possible, instead of the 3rd shaft, duplicate how you made the arm (connected to the pedestal) that extends longer and make a smaller version that can be connected as 2nd shaft to the camera. In this way, the issue on weight of the shafts maybe address and possible showing of base as you extend taller shall be address too. Btw, this is my husband's account, he bought it for me and I'm just doing the review because I am the one who experienced it. Overall, it is a good buy! I will add photos and edit my reviews as soon as I have tried the iPhone plus and camera. Thank you so much for the maker of this product!

It seems like a stable stand and isn't the worst. But if you want to position it in a way that arches over to one side (like many of the product images) you have to use pliers to tighten the extensions in order to keep them from sinking down from the weight of your phone or projector. It wobbles a lot from even slight movement and I now feel like I need to buy an additional weight to stabilize it. If this product had been $50 I would've been disappointed but fine. But for the over $100 I spent on it (Jan 2023) it is not worth that price!

Very easy to set up and use. Can see a bit of the base sometimes in the shot. But the screws are easy to tighten and works very well.

Zeer stevige en stabiele houder! Ik gebruik hem voor een mini projector. Zeer tevreden!

Very well made. Versatile. Currently being used to project art images for sketching. A bit expensive but should last many years.

I use it for filming cooking. It’s well built but not smooth to operate (too many parts) I would highly recommend it if most of your filming needs are from a single angle or position. Good material

A superb product that supports my photography and art. Highly recommended.
