I ordered 3 of these mic stands, I figured they would be low quality but not this bad. The threaded ends didn't even match up, the female threads on one boom were too big to screw onto the stand, I had to put teflon tape on them to make it work! On the another stand the threads were spinning in the tube, so I couldn't tighten it up, I had to drill a hole & put a roll pin in it to keep it from turning! The third one worked ok ... so 1 out of 3 might be ok if you want to take a gamble. Go ahead & spend a little more & get better stuff!

The thing doesn't even stay up, hobbles even after you tighten it. Doesn't even come with a mic clip. Don't buy this

This is a great quality, and sturdy mic stand, it's not made cheap at all. This stand can handle a lot and is made strong and the metal is pretty thick. You can tell it will last for ever. I've only had it for a week now, but the quality is good and I recommend this stand for any musician new or old, home studio or on stage.

I was expecting this to be some cheap aluminum thing that would tip over if you looked at it. That is definitly not the case. I couldn't believe how heavy the box was. The base feels like it's made of cast iron or something similar, which makes it very stable.

It works as a stand should. Everything moves smoothly, and locks tight.

A pro who's been doing this for years would probably laugh at it, but for everyone else, don't hesitate to buy it!
