18860 Spider Pro Black : Overpriced and won't get used.

4 years ago

First- it's too heavy and there isn't even a carrying handle in the middle. Instead there is an optional canvas case that will probably be useless after a couple of months..

2. The build!! It comes with a screw on top for a microphone. I put a 'gooseneck on the thing, only to have it fall through the stand on the floor, so I had to take the plastic bit off to be able to put the nut back. What a ridiculous setup- haven't the people heard of epoxy resin to keep a captive nut in place, or is that a forgotten item in Germany?? The circlip that holds the nut cracked on removal...

3. And the screws holding the plastic cap.. Self-tapping screws??? Have the people never heard of Machine Screws?? Screwing back the top plate cracked it, so I had one fabricated out of aluminum, re-drilled and the self tappers thrown away and replaced with machine bolts. Do they have a quality control department or are they all sick with Covid? I'll post it for sale on of the local selling sites here in Spain.
