The construction was confusing but once I figured that out, I had to drill a hole and add a screw to make it fit what I needed. That being said, I use these SO much to hold reflectors and backdrops! They have made my life so much easier.

Just what I wanted and for a good price. Clamps are very strong and hold my huge diffuser with no slipping. Love the multiple ways I can mount and position these clamps.

I was hoping this would be a quick tool for holding anything up. A flag (light blocker). A reflector. Anything. Someone in this thread said they couldn't attach it to a light stand. It connects just fine if you take out the adapter IN the clamp it goes on a light stand perfectly as any other tool made for going on a stand. Someone said it was too hard to open the clamp but you want the spring to be strong enough that your stuff doesn't just fall off. Others said they couldn't get the clamp onto the the bolt coming out of the mount. This is true as the four holes are NOT threaded and indeed, in a fairly thin metal. I've had this thing 15 minutes and can see this can lead to stripping the holes.The hot shoe mount is a bit sketchy. First, I can't seem to adjust it to make it perfectly straight. OK, speed flashes do swivel but I'm unsure if this could be a problem.Now, the biggest issue to me, is the overall build of the gizmo. The whole thing is VERY cheap. The adapter inside the fitting for the light stand has NO heft. The entire thing is plastic except the thin, metal clamp. I don't know if I would trust the hot shoe to hold a $600.00 speed flash. I wouldn't trust any of this to last more than a couple of uses, even by me, as I am VERY careful with my things. Spend a little bit more money, OK, maybe a LOT more money, and get Manfrotto or some other well established brand. You'll pay more ONCE and it will last forever rather than buy something half the price and replace it several times. I won't send it back but I've learned my lesson. I also bought the large Selens 5-in-1 48x72 Inch Oval Reflector with Handle. I'm guessing Selens will never be in my studio again because neither are built too well.Avoid Selens.

At first I was not sure how the clamp would go on since it didn’t come with instructions, however, I just started turning it on the screen part and it threaded just fine.. it’s strong enough hold my large thick Kate back drop.Not sure what everyone else is complaining about, but it’s perfect and works well.

It works well, but doesn’t fit perfectly on my C stand. You’ll get what you pay for and it clamps on to my reflector. But I fear it may break easily in the near future. No manual so there are some parts I’m not sure what to do with.

The clamp does not screw into the base, it's not designed to, it's not threaded, and the metal is thinner than the grooves on the screw, meaning it will strip and be unstable. Buyer beware, I will not buy from this scammer company again, and they should be disappointed with themselves, at least as much as their parents obviously are.

I've been wanting a clamp that could hold a reflector for me (as I'm often doing a solo gig) and have been looking for something like this for a few years now.This thing is great. My only complaint is that it was tricky to screw the mount onto the handle of the clamp. But once I figured out what to do, and got it on, it's very solid and stable. The clamp is secure, yet easy to open. It doesn't squeeze too hard, so my reflector shows no wear at all. The clamp can accommodate angles, which is also great. Easy to adapt to any stand and situation.Totally pleased. A bargin.
