The top part screwed in & cracked because it didn't stop once it was tight. I noticed the size between the top of the pole & the feather head were different so the feather head cracked because it was took small to screw in. Rather than return, I used electrical tape to tape on the top. It still telescopes. Though, for the price the make you pay, it shouldn't break.
