Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Considering 273 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, noting their solid construction and excellent performance. Many find the accessories well-designed, durable, and effective for their camera needs, often exceeding expectations. The company's customer service is also highlighted for being helpful and responsive, especially when addressing issues like lost shipments or incorrect orders. However, some customers experienced significant delays in delivery and order processing, with some items not shipping for weeks. There were also complaints about unexpected import tariffs and duties, which sometimes made the overall price comparable to purchasing from local retailers like Amazon. A few reviewers also expressed dissatisfaction with the perceived cheap quality of some products, with items breaking down quickly.

The product I purchased came in incomplete. The, asking for customer support is like pulling teeth. The questions I placed were not all addressed. I received multiple time one general answer to 3 questions i had related to products. It has been frustrating.

Build quality feels great, but pan head won't move!

The build and quality feels great. However, the pan head is almost impossible to move! I've looked it up and it seems to be a very common problem with this tripod and I'm pretty disappointed with the purchase. I don't have time to send it in and be without a tripod so I'm now looking into recommendations on the internet to solve the problem.

The order process was straight forward and the product as described.
The only issue was that the tracking from the shipping company did not really work.

I had a very great experience navigating through the website. I found my phone cage and grip for a fair price and used my discount to make a better deal. My order arrived earlier than expected and it is even better than advertised.

I still have a problem that is taking…

I still have a problem that is taking way too long to resolve. My issue is that right handle Hawklock that I bought has too much play in holding my rig - so it moves and ruins that shots that are hand-held.
While I have been referred a couple times, I have had to order a new handle, so I believe that now it the time to get a refund.

Package Didn’t Arrive-Edited

Unfortunately I didn’t receive the package.

Edit: It did show up. The wind had blown it into a neighbors yard and they showed up to my door with it 2 days after the delivery date.

I got the little wireless might set up for my Sony FX 30. It’s great for running gun shooting and I love how it has two microphones for less than 100 bucks. I was able to get a pretty decent set up while it’s not my main replacement for a microphone. It works great in a pinch. I’m very pleased with it.
