Best light, easy to use tripod? Bogen? (1 Viewer)

I'm looking around for a good, light, easy to use and simple tripod....

For many years I've used tripods from auctions and garage sales....

But I am looking for something maybe new or modern, reasonably priced for once. I've never used a Manfrotto/Bogen tripod, but I did come across a model labeled Wilderness 3221 w/head 503 for sale online.

What's the view of these Bogen/Manfrotto tripods? Are they good? Heavy?

For now I'm the guy using good glass on a $6 aluminum Velbon tripod.....
 
I have a Manfrotto 190 Go carbon fiber, not cheap, but lightweight, easy to use and stable. No experience with other than a cheap aluminum tripod I bought in an overseas USAF base exchange 45 years ago
