If one is worried about the weight capacity, look at the Bogen 405 rather than
the 410. Rated to 16 lbs vs 11 lbs of the 405. At B&H's price of $385, it's
cheaper that the Korean Cube.
I can't speak to the usability of the 405, I have a 410 which I purchased used
from B&H. I haven't ever regretted it.
But that cube looks neat. A product of the Borg?
