I state that I already have a Manfrotto 546GB with a 504HD head (great headstand), I needed a second tripod but I had no intention of accessing a mortgage to buy it... so I will compare it to this...
what can I say I was amazed at the quality... I was expecting a cinesata but had to change my mind, large size, closed it is the size of a photo tripod, it has a fantastic carrying case, a liquid head with different adjustments, adjustments, bubbles, etc., dimensions during use both in height and in perfect dimensions, possibility of using them as a monopod.
Let's go to the dark side...
The weight is definitely not light, the head I still say good does not have all the Manfrotto head adjustments, for example the adjustable clutch for horizontal movement... which is present on Manfrotto and is not present here... but we always consider the price, the boom for moving the head is a little short and not telescopic, there is no three-foot base in monopod mode, so you get tired of holding it in place for long-term use. The hooks for tightening the tripod rods seem undersized to me, but it still does their dirty work.
Conclusion Manfrotto is still Manfrotto... but this Cayer surprised me.
... And good!

Positively surprised with it!
Just a minor inconvenience. It's a bit too heavy to travel with.

This is a very serious tripod for video or photography. The unit is a bit heavy despite being all aluminum, but I only need to use it occasionally on site so I don't have to worry.
It's similarly robust to the Leofoto carbon fiber model I got a few months ago, which is also capable of serious all-day shooting in the field.
I have a lot of K&F Concepts gear and all of their gear is of high quality with excellent workmanship and materials for years of reliable use.

Ideal for use in both height positions. Knocks Spots from two basic versions I've used before and provides a stable view on my monopod and a shorter extension pole when using a top Lumix compact, Nikon bridge, small spotting scope and 12x42 monocular , which offers light weight and portable stability. A great purchase!

One of the highest quality tripods I've ever tried. Robust and practical for videographers. Unfortunately, as a product photographer, that wasn't for me as I had to add an extra arm that didn't work here.

Since I got it, I've taken my foot every time. Great hardware

I bought this video tripod for my 8kg EB camera and it is super sturdy and has a fluid-damped head that works great. I can really highly recommend this professional tripod!

Now I understand why these tripods costs so much. This thing is built solid - despite some plastic components that ideally would be metal, but I guess that's on the even more expensive tripods!It's completely adjustable in all directions, with very smooth action for panning the camera. And the handle is completely adjustable too (left or right handed, angle, etc). And it's tall, I'm 6ft and it's taller than me!The storage bag is pretty decent too; good quality and easy to carry.Overall, I'm very impressed with this tripod and think it's an excellent introduction into the prosumer range of accessories.
