My young son started taking saxophone lessons and needed a basic folding music stand. I wanted to buy one without spending a lot of money and this one made both of us happy. The stand folds easily and is well constructed of sturdy stainless steel. It has proven to be durable and is a good value.

I needed a stand tall enough for me to use when I play standing up--I'm 5'-10"--and this one works for me. I've heard others say that this model is wobbly and unstable, but mine is very well made and sturdy. When I take it on a gig I make copies of the music that will be played for that engagement and put them in a 3-ring binder, so I don't need to carry a stash of books which could overload the stand. However, it will hold a 1" ring binder and a 1/4" spiral binder easily. The extensions slide down inside for packing, so there are only 2 pieces to stow in the case. Couldn't ask for a better travelling stand at any price. I say travelling, but it is my one and only stand.

Finally a stand that brings the music up to a readable level so I can stand, play, and read the sheet at the same time !!! I got the matching bag it fits like a glove and it had a handy strap on it.

We are having the same problem of the top clamp not working. So we can never use the stand in the 59" extension. I have written to Sharmusic about this. This happened within 60 days of purchasing this product, it seemed to work OK for the 30 days the company allows returns. Very disappointing.

The bottom section stays in place, and the base locks in position, but the top section doesn't stay up and slides down even with nothing on it. This makes the entire top section rather useless. I don't know if this one is defective, but I would not buy this again.

As a 6-foot-3 beginning guitar player, this is exactly what I needed. What makes this product even better is how compact it becomes when (quickly and easily) disassembled for storage or transport!

I picked one of these up at my local Goodwill for $7.99 in perfect condition. I've never had a music stand and have always wanted one. I bought it thinking it would be at least $20 in a music store but it's only about $10 so it wasn't a great dead for a second-hand item. The stand hold sheets and books just fine. It has a couple metal pieces on the side you can move that keep your page. Even if you don't play music this works great for keeping books up if you get tired of looking down so it's a double score! Since it is adjustable it can become very tall, I only need it at the lowest setting for bedroom practicing. Definitely worth the money and you can always pass it onto someone else down the road. Glad to have come across this product. I also got a mint with tags Buddy Guy signed polka dot Jodi Head guitar strap for $3.99 the same day/same place!
