The Pro Stainless Steel Telescopic Backdrop Crossbar exceeded my expectations in this regard. The wing screws provided make assembly a breeze, and I appreciate the stepless adjustability, allowing me to extend it from 4 to 10 feet effortlessly. It saves me valuable time during my shoots, and that's worth a solid 5-star rating.Sturdiness (3 stars): While the crossbar is undoubtedly *sturdy enough to hold most backdrops securely, I rated it 3 stars because it's relatively thin compared to some other backdrop crossbars I've used in the past. However, I haven't encountered any issues with its ability to support backdrops during my shoots. So, while it may not be the thickest crossbar, it's certainly sufficient for its purpose.Light Weight (5 stars): The lightweight design of this crossbar is a significant advantage. It doesn't add unnecessary weight to my equipment setup, making it easy to transport and handle, even when I'm working alone. The fact that it's made from stainless steel, despite being lighter than some aluminum alloy alternatives, is a testament to its quality and durability.The inclusion of a 5/8 inch stud adapter is a nice touch, as it fits on most light stands seamlessly, adding to the product's versatility. Plus, the package includes everything you need to get started, with one telescopic crossbar included.In summary, the Pro Stainless Steel Telescopic Backdrop Crossbar is a reliable and practical addition to any photographer's toolkit. It's exceptionally easy to assemble, sufficiently *sturdy enough for holding backdrops, and impressively lightweight. If you're looking for a versatile backdrop support solution that won't slow you down during your shoots, this product is worth considering.*This statement is justified because the Pro Stainless Steel Telescopic Backdrop Crossbar, although relatively thin compared to some alternatives, has consistently demonstrated its ability to securely hold various backdrops during photography and videography sessions. I've found it reliable and robust enough to handle the weight and dimensions of different backdrop materials without any issues. This level of performance and reliability underscores its suitability for safely supporting backdrops, making it a practical choice for photographers seeking a dependable backdrop solution.

At first this thing was great but as you can see here it didn’t last a year.

I need something stronger to hold my back drops for events...Plus get that look of being strong..They are everything I thought they are...Amazingly Awesome!!! I will refer all my photographers friend's this product...

This rod is almost unusable. It sags so much. It can't be extended to the full width or even half the width without sagging 4-5". I have ditched it. It's too bad I can't still return.

Bought this pole due to my old backdrop stand pole being not long enough, and only needing to replace the pole. Fits perfect, is very easy to use, and is very sturdy.

I bought this bar 4 months ago and it has started to crumble where the bar goes into the c-stand

Wish it was a bit stronger.It's ok.
