(More customer reviews)I have several of the standard length (63 inch high) versions (Model 210/9) of this stand. I use them professionally almost every day in the studio and on-location, and could not be happier with their performance and reliability. They cost a little more than the similar appearing stands made by "On-Stage", "Musician's Gear", "Samson" and "Ultimate", but are made to a very high standard and work every time.
The K&M folding stands are used by many pro engineers for a reason - they just work right!. They are made of fine materials, everything is well machined so everything fits, they have a precision feel, and they last forever.
The only downside of this design is that the stands are fairly heavy. This is not an issue in a studio situation, in fact the weight of the base casting actually adds to the stand's stability. However, if you have to carry 4 or 5 of these to an "on-location" gig, the weight is not appreciated.
For situations where I need higher mic placement, I still love my old Shure S-15s, and sometimes I will chose my "Ultimate" (squeeze grip) stands for vocal mics, but the cheaper "Musician Gear", and "On-Stage" stands are kept around only for the rare situations when I need a large number of mics or as "back-ups". Once you use a K&M mic stand (or a K&M music stand), going back to a cheap Chinese stand is like switching from driving a new BMW to a used Hyundai. No offense to Hyundai, or even "On-Stage", but the few bucks more that the K&M costs is a tiny price to pay for the improved quality, and will be paid back many times over during the extended life of the product.
