JOBY GorillaPod 5K Reviews

Mixed quality, will not last

By Brad

Used lightly for 7 years but the rubber rings on the leg spheres are disintegrating and getting sticky, poor choice of rubber or whatever compound. Otherwise the tripod works great but when I called about getting replacement rings, I was told the product has been sold several times to different companies and there are no spare parts. I'm supposed to just buy a new tripod. Nothing is made to last anymore. Sad.

Broke 3 days after use.

Used this for two days and then one of the legs broke off. Wasn’t even bending it too much and I just broke off and I couldn’t get it back on.

Deciding between the JOBY GorillaPod 5k and ...

Deciding between the JOBY GorillaPod 5k and GorillaPod 1k for my Leica Q? Primarily want to use for a grip/self portraits.
Asked by: Christine
The JOBY GorillaPod 5K Kit will be a better fit for the Leica Q3 Digital Camera compared to the JOBY GorillaPod 1K because it is sturdier and can hold more weight.
