Unbelievable value

At that price my expectations weren't very high but these have blown me away. The build quality is excellent and they stand very stable whilst in use. I can't fault them at all, highly recommended.

Really versatile

I love this stand. The great versatility of recording/playing positions it offers is matched by it's stability and sturdy construction. It is also light and folds into a compact, easy to transport size. I would certainly recommend.

Perfect.

It does what it is supposed to do and it does it well, it can extend very high or very low so it is perfect for any use, its rugged and well built, Highly recommended for the price.

great value mike stand

i wanted to get a mike stand that would hold the mike at heights suitable for recording acoustic guitar and for use by a singer.

This is to be used in my home studio or jamming sessions.

I wanted a mike stand but being on a tight budget i wasn't hopeful of getting anything good. I was surprised at how well made this stand actually is, its got plenty of adjustment for both height and boom adjustment. It's pretty light but at the same time it's very sturdy. For the price of these stands you can't go wrong i would certainly buy another as for value for money there 5*.

Buy One

Good quality and excellent value. Sturdy. Not much else to say really!

I got two years of constant use out of it before it failed. I can replace the failed component for less than £5. I have since replaced the stand with the same unit.

A bargain, pure and simple

Not the best or strongest stand in the world, but just look at the price. Does what it says on the tin, and better than anyone could expect at this price point. Home or occasional use is what it is meant for, and it does that impeccably. I wouldn't take it on the road, but it's not designed or priced for that duty.

Quality for pennies

If your looking for a quality stand on the cheap look no further. Very sturdy, made from quality materials and is more than strong enough to hold up a heavy mic. Very impressed.

Excellent for the Studio

These stands are cheap, this is a good thing. They are great for holding your microphone up in the studio, but I would worry a bit about taking them out and using them a lot live. They feel like they would break quite easily under constant folding, unfolding and putting away. As such I haven't used them much for that.

I have a pair of them, one for distance and one for near field on acoustic guitars. They hold position really well, and the adjustment wheels are stable and easy to alter in a rush. I did pinch my finger in one once, but I do that a lot anyway.

If you are after a cheap stand and aren't that bothered about longevity, then go for it, but if you need one to stand up to heavy gigging or an over enthusiastic vocalist chucking it about you might want to spend a bit more.

Very high quality stand!

I was really impressed with the quality and build of this stand. It was more surprising to see that the stand was so reasonably priced. The superior build quality ensures a long lasting performance.

very good

This tripod is very functional, greatly appreciated his features, no doubt surprised me the positive. Very cheap and very good at the same time. I recommend everybody who buy it. I was pleased

Great value

A very good quality mic stand for under €10. Far better than some of the rubbish you can get elsewhere for the same price. Buy it.

Decent stand, but ugly

There are only two things I could say about this stand that I don't like. The joint between the boom and stand is ugly, if stable and easy to manipulate. The legs on the base don't easy fold out completely (I only managed to get one out completely at the last gig) so the thing sits at a slightly funny angle.

It's not going to fall anytime soon – it's basically vertical, but it's enough to annoy me. Other than that, the joins and knobs are all very stable, it's a well-made piece of kit and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about the rest.

just works

Here you have a folding microphone stand AND a boom arm. They can be separated easily, and all of the points of articulation seem firm. A satisfying purchase since it plays its role in a way that does not steal my attention from other more technical nightmares in the studio. This is just day one, maybe it will leap phases into a plasma next week, but so far it appears to be a solid.

Boom stand bought as part of a package.

Stable and well made given the budget price. No complaints and remarkable value for not a lot of money. Does the job as intended.

Good for the price

I've used it for three years in home recording and no parts have yet come loose, which is excellent and more than what can be said for many mic stands (even more expensive ones).

It's not fully stable and takes some tweaking to get it where you want to a lot of the time but I guess that's true even for more expensive stands.

great value for money

this stand is a lot better than i thought it would be. Its heavy, and strong. Really impressed for the price.

Good quality stand

I've cut a lot of corners with mic stands/booms over the years and have usually paid the price. Not this time !

This is much cheaper than a lot of the other stands available of a similar style but, for me, it does exactly what it claims to which is >hold mics<. It's surprising how many other stands fail on this basic functionality, in all honesty.

It looks nice (for a mic stand) but the looks are definitely more function based than form/aesthetics focused. This is no problem for me, I just wanted something that works and this certainly does.

All the screw fittings work well and there are different mountings if you unscrew the supplied ones (the smaller mountings are what the larger ones fit onto so if you unscrew them you'll find them) which means this can also be used as a stand for instruments like the moog theremini.

Everything stays tight and I've had no issues yet with "mic droop" as is startlingly common with many of the other stands I've purchased in the past.

On a side note, there was a warning that came with it saying that the rubber feet may discolour certain types of flooring. I've got stone tiles on my floor and it's not done so yet, which is nice.

Great quality mic stand for the money, recommended wholeheartedly.

Light weight mic stand

I ordered this for my Superlux E205 microphone. I just needed a budget mic holder for my home studio and I am very happy with it. I don't think this could last long if used at gigs because it's very light weight and has plastic parts that doesn't last long but for a budget home studio like mine, this is just perfect. It also can be attached a second mic for an acoustic instrument like a mandoline or an acoustic guitar.

Smart Solution

I have, as many others, bought cheap stands in the past but this stand really does stand out from the rest (excuse the pun).

Solid build that feels it can handle the most heavy handed musician! But the thing that really makes this stand so special is the capacity to have to mic's attached at the same time, one atop of the upright, and the other on the boom. Perfect for mic-ing up acoustic guitars and sax's.

Great product, versatile and at a great price.

This is a great mic stand - I wanted a stand that would suit both vocal use and could be used to mic up guitar amps as well. This certainly can handle both situations and feels very stable.

I am always cautious of over-tightening as this is what will ultimately break this type of product, but so far it is holding up well.

With carefull handling, I can see this lasting a lot longer than the price would suggest.
