The bottom line A 28 mm tube, six sections, a switchable thread, a spike and a base that becomes a desk tripod: this is the most technically described pole on the shelf at 63 €. The lock type and the folded length are absent, and its 6 kg looks modest beside the pole above it.
On the listing
Five bullets, each opening with a star. A high-grade aluminium alloy monopod and base, strong and durable enough to hold the pole steady, with a maximum load of 6 kg; six extendable sections with a maximum tube diameter of 28 mm, a maximum height of 177 cm and a minimum of 46 cm; a universal mounting plate with a switchable 1/4 to 3/8 inch screw for installing a camera or a ball head directly; a base allowing 360 degree panoramic rotation and 20 degrees of tilt, with the 1/4 and 3/8 inch screw usable as a desktop mini tripod; and rubber feet with a metal spike for extra stability, with the pole also usable as a walking stick.
Twenty-eight millimetres
The thickest tube figure on this shelf, and one of only two published. Stiffness climbs steeply with diameter, so this is the number that actually predicts flex — and six other pages here replace it with the word aluminium.
Six sections, and why the diameter matters
Each nested tube is narrower than the one above. Six sections from a 28 mm base end thinner than four would, and knowing where the sequence starts is what makes the count readable instead of alarming.
A screw that switches, and a base that becomes a tripod
A quarter inch or three eighths without an adapter bush to lose, and a base that unscrews into a small desk support. Two pieces of design that remove two separate annoyances.
No lock named, on a page that measures its tubes
No lock type, in five bullets that describe the tube diameter to the millimetre. No folded length either, on the pole with the most sections here — the one where that figure would justify the count.

What it does well, and what it gives up
Strengths
A 28 mm tube diameter published — the thickest figure on this shelf, and one of only two given at all
A switchable 1/4 to 3/8 inch screw, with no adapter bush to lose
A base that pans through 360 degrees, tilts 20 degrees, and works as a desktop tripod on its own
Compromises
Six sections with no folded length published, so the reason for the count cannot be checked
No lock type named anywhere
Sixty-three euros, the second dearest here, for 6 kg where the SIRUI declares 12
Specifications
Maximum height
177 cm, in the title and the second bullet, from 46 cm closed — second only to the SIRUI’s 190 cm, and the lowest minimum on the shelf
Folded length
Not published. Six sections and a 46 cm minimum height are given; the packed length, which on a six-section pole is the number that justifies the count, never appears
Section count
Six, in the second bullet — the highest on this shelf. More sections pack shorter and end thinner, and this is the only page here that publishes the figure that lets the trade be judged: the tube diameter
Lock type
Not named. The page describes the sections, the diameter, the plate, the base and the feet, and never says whether the joints twist or flip
Declared load
6 kg, in the first bullet, alongside a claim of high-grade aluminium alloy strong enough to hold the pole steady. Mid-table here: below the Manbily’s 7 kg and well below the SIRUI’s 12 kg
Foot design
Rubber feet with a metal spike, in the fifth bullet, for extra stability across scenes and ground types. The fourth adds that the base allows 360 degree panning and 20 degrees of tilt, and that the 1/4 and 3/8 inch screw lets the base serve as a desktop mini tripod on its own
Material
High-grade aluminium alloy, in the first bullet, with a maximum tube diameter of 28 mm in the second. That diameter is the specification this shelf otherwise lacks — only the Hama publishes one, at 26.7 mm, and stiffness rises steeply with diameter
Head mount
A universal mounting plate with a switchable 1/4 to 3/8 inch connecting screw, in the third bullet, which says a camera or a ball head can be installed directly. A switchable screw is better than an adapter bush: there is nothing separate to lose

What people ask before they commit
Why is a published tube diameter worth more than adjectives?
Because stiffness rises with the fourth power of diameter, so a few millimetres change the behaviour of a pole far more than the alloy does. Two pages on this shelf publish a figure — 28 mm here, 26.7 mm on the Hama — and the other six describe their aluminium in words. It is the one number that lets flex be compared.
What does a switchable screw replace?
An adapter bush, which is a small brass ring that converts 3/8 inch to 1/4 inch and lives in the bottom of a bag until it is lost. The third bullet describes a screw that switches between both sizes as part of the plate, so a camera or a ball head mounts directly either way.
Six sections — more or less rigid?
Less, all else being equal: each nested tube is narrower than the one above it, so a six-section pole ends thinner than a four-section pole of the same height. What this page does that the others do not is publish the starting diameter, 28 mm, which is where that sequence begins. A thick base tube and six sections is a different proposition from a thin base tube and six sections.
54 to 170 cm · four leg sections · declared load 6.6 lbs, about 3 kg · 1/4 inch universal thread · rubber foot with retractable spikes · padded grip and adjustable wrist strap · carry bag · aluminium · no folded length published · no head included
Eighteen euros, level with the PATONA on this shelf, with a rubber foot that hides retractable spikes and a wrist strap — and no folded length anywhere on the page.
Best for: A first monopod for a long lens at a match or in a hide, where the spikes and the strap matter more than a published packed length.
160 cm maximum · folded 43 cm · five sections · flip-lock quick catches · 1/4 inch and 3/8 inch dual interface · two-in-one metal and rubber foot · non-slip cotton grip with a hand strap · aluminium alloy · no declared load published · no head included
Five sections folding to 43 cm for 22 €, with a foot that unscrews to reveal a metal spike and both thread sizes — and no load figure on the page.
Best for: A pole that has to disappear into a small bag, for a camera used at or below 160 cm on mixed ground.
61 to 176 cm · aluminium · rubber foot · quick clamps · 3-way head for landscape, horizontal and portrait framing · non-slip rubber grip · bubble level · 665 g · 1/4 inch thread, maximum profile 26.7 mm · quick-release plate, bag with a carry strap · no section count published · no declared load published
The only monopod here that arrives with a 3-way head and a bubble level, at 28 € and 665 g — and the only one whose tube diameter is published.
Best for: Someone who wants one purchase that works out of the box, where a head, a plate, a level and a bag matter more than a spike.
