It works!
We use it to support an 18" china in our thrash-metal band, so it's safe to say it gets hit quite a lot.
It hasn't failed us once and we're using it for about six months now.
We haven't been transporting it, only using it in rehearsals (weekly).
The felt cushion is not the best, we replaced it but it will do the job.
The rubber feet keep the stand where you place it. The stand does not have the tendency to tilt over. Doesn't weigh a ton either and it feels sturdy enough.
We cannot say anything about the extensive use of the joints and clamps but we don't think that will prove any problems.
For the price paid it is a real bargain!

A Decent Basic Cymbal Stand
I've been using these stands for several years on the road and in studio. In my opinion, they're a decent stand for the price. I take good care of my hardware, and from what I've seen, the only major problems that come from these stands are from poor maintenance.
That being said, the stand's base can wobble back and forth at times of heavy use or under a lot of weight. I mostly use these stands for cymbals that don't take much of a beating (splash/light crash).
Pros:
- Price
- Can support the weight it needs to and fill its role in a kit
- Lightweight for transportation
Cons:
- Base can be wobbly at times
- Can deteriorate quickly without good maintenance practices
- Plastic guard screws on from top (personal preference)
To sum it up: Good stand for the price, but I wouldn't use it in high-stress situations with heavy/pricey cymbals.

Very good
As I am using these in a home studio they are more than adequate. I would say they'd also be fine for a light gigger.

Great value for your money.
I got this as the cheapest alternative and it does the job well.
Only downside is the fact that the felts dont have a plastic cylinder to protect the cymbal, so a bit of insulation tape or something else will have to be applied to protect your cymbal from the metal screw.

Good Product, Good Price.
For the price, you can t really go wrong with this product, quite sturdy even with a 20" ride on at an aggressive angle. Only down side, main angle rod could be 3 or 4" longer, struggle a little when trying to place over the top of toms that are angled. Overall though, good product for the price.

Pleasantly surprised
I needed an extra cymbal stand for my teaching studio. After looking at all the top name brands and their prices I thought I'll just go with this one as its only for the studio so won't be going on stage or anything.
After unboxing I was amazed at how sturdy it is, and how easily it moves into what ever position you need.
Perfect for my studio.
However, I would avoid if this stand was needed to be folded up and put into a hardcore for gigs. Doesn't fold down as compact as I'd like.

A budget stand that does the job perfectly
At this price point, nothing can beat these stands, seriously.
I have a few straight stands and I bought also the boom one because I found them simply reliable in a practise room where you have to leave them there in place. I also brought them outside while gigging and they behaved really well by doing their job as stand properly, even with very heavy cymbals while hitting them really hard.
The screws hold the position pretty well and they are reliable enough to not worry about tightening them again in the middle of the setlist, room or stage.
So yes: if you are on a budget, these stands are the one to go for.

Low price and low-mid quality
For the price its a pretty good boom stand. For me it works well with small cymbals like small chinas splashes or crashes below 16".
Its not good with large and heavy crashes such as 20" and above - not enough stability for these heavy cymbals.
But after all this is extremly cheap boom stand. And it works.
