I bought the Simplex 333. It's good but not great. Very flimsy and prone to vibration. It's a very nice alternative to placing your camera on a stack of books, but otherwise it leaves a lot to be desired.
The tripod is fairly stable with 2 sections extended. But the 3rd section is too thin and the tripod legs will actually spread out on applying light pressure from above. Be careful when you use it. A minor push or wind will knock it down.
Don't extend the central rod unless it is really necessary. It rocks like hurricane sandy.

@blackperl there is a saying "U will get what u paid for" 
1. A tripod is good to keep your cam stable from one place to other (u cant move a stool or ur car bike everywhere for support)
2. Never ever leave ur cam alone on a cheap tripod...keep the strap around neck when using tripod....u can live free only if u had spent 10-12k on a good manfrotto tripod.
3. Yes like blackperl said dont extend the middle rod much...its very unstable that way....bend a little to compose
