The Pivot-Pod Grip-Pod is a much better option than the Mako grip. To start: the Pivot-Pod is $50 less in cost and about 1/4 of a pound lighter. It is also sturdier and has a cant and a slant - making shots from an uneven shooting position possible. I would avoid this product.
Pros: Innovative idea, compact and adaptable.
Cons: Expensive, lacks a cant and a slant to the bipod - making uneven positions difficult to shoot from using this bipod.
