Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Charlotte ★★★★★

The retractable mechanism locks securely and extends smoothly, which saved me so much time on set. It holds my softbox steady without any wobble, even at full height. For the price, this is a solid workhorse.

Thomas ★★★★★

I was a bit skeptical about the 240cm height being stable, but it holds my softbox securely even at full extension. The retractable legs make setup and breakdown quick, and the whole thing fits easily in my gear bag.

Timothy ★★★★★

The auto-lock mechanism saved me so much time during a busy shoot, no more fighting with collapsing sections. It feels sturdy enough to hold my softbox securely at full height, yet it folds down small enough to fit in my bag.
