I love the lighting. The only thing I wasnt so crazy about was how the legs of the tripod are. They are so thin. Other then that it holds my phone perfect and the lighting is great.

Good quality. The ring light's brightness is adjustable which works great depending on how you want your photo to look.
The stand could be a bit more stable, but it works well enough.

The lighting is great! You can alternate it from light to warm lighting. The legs aren’t stable though and it’s not portable. You have to plug it in the wall!

Light, small and portable. The rubber smells a lot and it does not seem to fade over time.

I felt this was a great buy for the price point. I have a podcast and I needed a light. I didnt expect this to work as good as it did.

The first Vlogging kit was purchased as a birthday present! Witout knowledge, the kit had been opened prior to me purchasing it and we later discovered a part was missing. It was very disappointing for my granddaughte. I had to make an additional visit to make the return and repurchase the item. Although, the return was an easy process, I had concern to purchase the item again with no guarantee all parts were enclosed. The associate allowed me to open the item in store only after I paid for it.

This light is so much brighter than my other light. The light does feel cheap tho and the threads are plastic.

This does the job and more. I am not a vlogger, but perpetually in virtual meetings, and sometimes it's just easier to use my phone. However, I was looking for a hands free stand I could use anywhere without worrying about lighting restrictions. So no more shadows or lighting limitations and it's ready to use out of the box. It even has a few frills, which includes 3 lighting modes and a dimmer for each. If you're a clutz like me, this is also for you. The ring is a plastic IED light so no worries about it breaking if knocked over unintentionally. The tripod legs are adjustable; however, sometimes not easily, so a little patience is required. I have a Note 10 so it fits larger phones. I also am a big fan of it's portability and sturdiness. I definitely got a big bang for my buck.

Over all it is okay, the actual ring a lot smaller than expected compared to the tripod, it gives off okay light if you are extremely close to it. The button to change the settings sticks and you have to press it really hard to get it to become un jammed, it did this out of the box. One of the Tripp’s legs does not lock into place correctly at medium height, and the adjustment knob that holds the actual phone steady does not tighten all the way, so when you are trying to record your phone will fall or move around. The quality is pretty cheap paying what they are charging.

Easy setup, easy to use and inexpensive. The only complaint I had was the smell. There is a plastic smell that came from the product for weeks. Not sure if it went away or I just got use to the smell. Overall great product for a novice like me.

I love this equipment. It is affordable and very reliable. It has some Awesome lighting qualities and settings. It also includes an adjustable cell phone/device holder. And the stands that hold up the entire device is very sturdy.

i wear glasses and I'm trying to find the right angle where you can't see the halo reflection on my eyes. I like thr adjustable brightness and softness of the light as well as how it holds my phone. I'd also prefer it where I have the option to prop the phone vertically

Great for doing zoom or live meetings without having to hold the phone for the demonstration. Light is awesome and having to be able to make smaller and taller is great

Great Light, good stand, but SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE

This item smells. I can't understand why they think it is acceptable to sell an item that smells like gasoline. I thought the smell would eventually dissipate, but months later, it still smells strongly like gasoline. The legs are a little flimsy, but tolerable if it didn't stink so bad. The light is the best part of the kit. It works well.

Seeing that everyone is online these days, I decided to make me a little video for my Etsy business. Well, that worked fine but my son came over and instantly fell in love with my portable Vlog kit. Needless to say, he's enjoying it now and seems like I need to order another! SMH

Device worked fine except for difficulty getting tripod legs to fix in the desired position- it took some fiddling with it to get it into a secure lock.
