I have used this product many times now to set up my sky dish whilst caravanning.
What can I say – It’s Great value for money and at the time was the cheapest price I could find.
The pegs supplied are sufficient for securing the tripod on grass but will need stronger pegs to drive into hard standing caravan pitches.

I found this product to be well made and easy to set up. The rotating head, with the provided pin used as a bearing, turns very smoothly for positioning, and can be locked solid with the Allan key and rotating screw. The aluminium frame is lightweight and strong. The provided pegs are fine for grass, but stronger ones will be required for hard standing. There is no need to pay more unless, perhaps, you have a very large dish.
