Quick and dirty but does the job.

Very stable on even surfaces. Rather heavy. Perfect height for bass drums and low speaker cabinets. Absolutely nothing special but like the headline says: it absolutely does the job.

Good

It's good, but I wish there was some more adjustment height-wise. Other than that it feels like it's gonna last a lifetime.

Not ergonomic for kick mic

I bought it to insert a beta 52 into the kick port, but I can't center the hole as the stand hits the kick rim. Also, clamping the extension part requires a lot of force and still cannot be fully squeezed. Apart from that, its weight, material quality is fine for its price.

Very limited mic placement

Fairly sturdy stand, I haven't had any problems with more or less only mic placement possible: against the drumhead, down the bottom corner of the drum. It won't reach inside the drum, and it's too short to reach the middle of the head (I use a 22"). So no room for creative mic placements, but it does the job for its price.

Not bad, not great

Very cheap stand, came as part of a kit. Welded joins were rough and several parts worked loose. Recommend spending a bit more money and getting a better stand.

a little disappointing

This thing is very simple but it's poorly built. It unscrews easy, too easy to be reliable enough. It also too small for fitting in any bass drum hole, you'll probably need a standard mic boom anyway. It's stable though but the built makes it very unfinished. It's cheap but you get what you pay for,

The millennium BD 100 Kickstand is ok for what it is, I got it with a Shure beta 52, so it was a good deal, would've liked an arm though, so you can get the mic more on the inside of the kick drum.

But works good on the outside, if you use 2 kick miss.

Good value

Bought 5 of these for the pa system for the band. Used to Mic up kick drum and guitar amps for gigging . Heavily made so very sturdy. Easy to assemble and enough extension for amps that are floor based. Comes with two options of Mic connector. Great value. Don't need to spend money on more expensive stands....these do the job for us

Decent build quality, But to limited for my taste.

The over all quality if absolutely decent, it's make out of pretty heavy metal and I think, when placed successfully, it's great. But! The problem for me was that the stand is way to tall to be used with my drums.

A part of the problem is that the mic I'm using, the Shure SM52b, is pretty high by itself and used with the original built-in holder, it becomes way to high.

If you plan to use this with a holder that allows for more adjustments I'm sure you will be just fine using this stand. But check the total height of stand + mic before buying it.

This stand isn't the best stand I've used by a long shot but for the price its usuable. The problem I had with this stand is my drummer has a hole in his kick drum and it wasn't simple to mike it up and you cant put it far into the kick drum so you are restricted.

Neat but...

Neat but lightweight and restricted size adjustment so not best on large, heavy kick drum mics. It does pack down very small however so helps keep the load in your car down.

mike stand

I use this in the studio to place a microphone in front of a speaker cabinet. Heavy and sturdy but not very pretty
