After bought and then returned Carson TA-50 and Barska binoculars tripod adapters (both having hundreds of 5 star ratings), I finally settled on this noname mock up of Vortex adapter that only has tens of reviews, just to give it a try. To my surprise, it simply works! The price is much lower than big name products. For such a simple part, it's definitely more bang for your buck.One trick to mount the adapter is to rotate the screw knob counter clockwise first to leave only a few turns of threads exposed. This leaves enough room to turn the knob clockwise until the adapter is fully tightened to the binoculars.Since I just started to use it, the longevity remains to be seen. That said, it's made of a solid piece of metal (aluminum?), so I'm not worried about it.What was wrong with the Carson TA-50 adapter? There's only 2 or 3 turns on the screw, and the adapter easily rotates even after I fully tightened the screw. It may work on some binoculars, but not on mine. How about the Barska adapter? The knob on the screw is simply too big. It barely fits the space between the lens, making it difficult to rotate. The adapter rotates easily even after I fully tightened the screw.

This seems to fit and work OK. It took some fiddling to get it to tighten up properly, but it tightens up OK once you turn the metal washer around so the counterbore in the washer is facing forward, not toward the binoculars as it comes from the factory. This lets the washer turn freely, independent of the attachment screw. See the excellent video made by another purchaser, WX, if this isn't clear.Otherwise, it seems to be a good device, and it costs half as much as the same thing from Vortex. Both made in China.Made of aluminum, not plastic, seems well made. Should work fine.The only drawback to the design is that, because it's a bit of a pain to install and remove the adapter, you will have this metal thing hanging down between the lenses when you take it off the tripod and us it handheld. And if you have a bag you put your binos in then you're not using them, the binos are not going to fit into the bag with this device on them.When it's on as tight as you can get it with your fingers, there's still a bit of rocking play left in it, but it's pretty secure and stable.

Does not work well for vortex optics, tried with crossfire triumph copperhead and vipers and the screw is too long and the thumbscrew is also too long and doesn’t allow room for your fingers to fit to twist. Otherwise great quality

DOES IT'S JOB BUT IT'S A TIGHT SQUEESE (close Quarters) not a fast mount up or take down. Have to be real real careful not to break it off when not mounted on the tripod. Going to make a quick disconnect lock on for mine. DOES IT WORK YES. MAKE A TOOL. Get a 1/2''or 5/8" dowel rod 4'' to 5'' long . CUT A SLOT IN ONE END (like a screwdriver slot BIG ENOUGH TO FIT THE MOUNT SCREW) THIS MAKES LIFE A LOT EASY FOR YOURSELF SHORT OF LONG NOSE PLYIERS FOR A EXTENDED REACH.

I got this to use with my Celestron SkyMaster binoculars.It fits the tripod just fine. Nice and sung with no movement.It screws into the binoculars easily, threads are perfect, and holds them snugly.the material (steel) seems very sturdy and strong. Not flimsy, but thick (2mm) and rigid.I completely trust them with my binoculars and would buy this again.

Bought this for my binoculars. They are not the best for holding the binoculars up steady. The adapter came with a flimsy good for nothing plastic washer that kept binding up the apparatus and could not get a good hold on the binoculars. The company should of put a “c†clip to hold the screw inside of adapter. It screws into tripod just fine and holds tight.

Holds my Vortex binos securely to my tripod. I use it on every hunting trip and it works perfectly!
