Christmas gift for the girlfriend, she was ecstatic!
She is the type that LOVES makeup and is very good with it. She had been talking about this for some time, how all the Youtube channels she watches use these Ring Lights for their makeup videos and this was very affordable and comes with everything she would need to start right out of the box (after a few minutes of me setting it up).
The light has a dimmer that works very nicely, she usually doesn't need to have it maxed but it can and will get very bright! You will want one of the covers on or you may hurt your eyes or likely burn yourself (and it looks a little weird without them). I don't think we've even used the orange covers yet, but they are there I guess (I say orange but I'm colorblind so it's just a good guess). You can also tilt the light, up or down, as needed for the perfect angle. The phone/camera attachment in the middle is adjustable as well, making it possible to use numerous phones or cameras to record. This attachment does seem to 'drop' a bit after you get your angle however, so you may need to aim just a bit higher than what you want so it will drop into the correct position.
The stand is sturdy enough if you want it to just sit there without being bothered. It has three sections (the tripod, lower half, upper half) and the light attaches onto the top. They can be adjusted for height at each level with knobs that tighten or loosen allowing the upper/lower halves to slide up or down. For her setup we needed it all the way down AND had to flatten the tripod to get it to her perfect height (she is 5'2'' and we only had a small folding chair available at the time).
It also comes with a neat little bluetooth device that connects to your phone and snaps pictures for you, so you can pose or whatever it is you want and just press the button for an easier shot.

Impressive light output, comes with everything you need!
So far, so good! I've had this ring light a week now and it is great.When I unpacked everything, I realized there were no directions. It isn't the end of the world, but seriously... like one double sided sheet of paper or an email with directions, or and email with a link to the YouTube video I eventually had to find, would have been nice. The Youtube video doesn't even explain everything. It does show you how the stand works and how to attach all the pieces together. The legs come flipped 180 degrees the opposite direction, so it took me a few minutes to figure out that they need to be pulled 180 degrees the other way before they can be used to stand anything up. It also come with an extra plug which I'm guessing is for user in Europe.It comes with two sets of snap on filters, once for warm lighting and one for cool. I don't know that I'll ever use the warm, but it's nice to have it included in the kit. It also comes with a carry case for the light, not the stand. It would have been nice if the stand at least had a collapsable handle or something for easy of transport. The kit also comes with a bluetooth remote for taking pictures or starting and stopping your videos. That comes in its own box and amazingly has directions in it.The light itself is really great. It's LED which is great for conserving energy and not putting out a lot of heat. There is a knob under the ring light to turn on the light and also functions as a dimmer. This light gets REALLY bright. It's crazy. In the middle of the ring is where the holder for your phone goes which I love. You can also remove the phone holder and actually screw in your nice camera for photos or videos.Overall I'm very happy with this purchase. The photo I've included was taken with the ring light. I really wanted the 18" but for $100 less, I am happy with this light.

I bought this to combat the undereye bags and orange glow my skin tends to radiate in Zoom calls in a sunny room where the color temperature of the recessed lights is much warmer than the ambient daylight. This ring light is really bright. The photos were taken at the lowest setting. At the highest setting, I get decent quality light up to 6-8 feet away, which makes it great when I give speeches that require me to walk around.
Other great things about this kit: I'm not using the tripod, but it seems pretty sturdy. I'm mounting it on a ZooMed reptile lamp stand instead so it can stay on my desk, and it fits perfectly on the stand. The phone cradle is just barely big enough to fit my iPhone 11, but it fits. Pairing the bluetooth remote with my phone was quick and easy. And the carrying case is convenient. It would be absolutely perfect if it came with a remote to adjust the brightness, but since I'm not using this for portrait photography, it's not a deal breaker for me.

Me encantó! Excelente calidad y buen precio!
El producto llegó rápido y muy protegido. Venía en paquete con el aro de luz de 14" y su tripode. También trae dos difusores uno blanco (el de la foto) y uno naranja (para una luz más cálida). Ilumina muchísimo! Y trae también un control remoto que se vincula con el celular para fotos y videos a distancia.verovglamMe encantó! Excelente calidad y buen precio!

Es muy fácil de instalar, si trae un manual de instalación pero por lógica lo arme sin problema.
Trae también un accesorio para colocar tu celular en el medio del aro, agarra bien y no se mueve el celular (solo me preocupa que por el tiempo de tanto abrirlo y cerrarlo para colocar el celular se vaya a romper) Pero hasta ahorita todo bien.
Si no colocas el accesorio de celular ese mismo accesorio te sirve para colocar una cámara profesional o semiprofesional.
Los difusores pueden usarse (con una perilla que tiene en la parte de abajo del aro) en diferentes intensidades de luz, desde muy poquita luz, hasta muchísima! La puse en su mayor intensidad y el cuarto completamente oscuro se iluminó por completo. Es perfecto para fotos profesionales.
Si se preguntan por el ancho o diámetro del aro, si pude pasar mi cabeza por el medio sin problema pero no pasa más allá de mis hombros.
