4.0 out of 5 stars
Great portable stand,

This review is from: Petersen Designs P2K Folding Music Stand
This stand is very durable and very compact. It looks far better on stage than a metal stand. The only reason I did not give this 5 stars was because if you are over 5'5" you can't comfortably use it standing up because it is too short. Great for sitting though...

This review is from: Petersen Designs P2K Folding Music Stand
I have owned a Petersen for about 15 years now. It has held up remarkably well, and is much more sturdy than any wire stand. It is lightweight, packs in to a notebook sized, self-contained unit, and has wings which pull out from both sides to accommodate full sized orchestral scores. As previously mentioned, it is not good for tall players, but can be angled back nicely.Many of my students and friends have made purchases after seeing mine.

3.0 out of 5 stars
Good now and then--if you like puzzles.,
By Samuel Chell (Kenosha,, WI United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Petersen Designs P2K Folding Music Stand
There are a couple of other small, folding plastic stands on the market, but this Petersen is the most compact of all (too small to require a handle or bag of its own, as another reviewer has suggested, though the company appears to make available individual pieces and even a miniature custom-made bag for the stand). But if you have a fairly large gig bag for all your cables, power strips, etc., it should accommodate this stand, which is OK for emergency use. But under no circumstances should the stand be mistaken for a Manhassett.If you use a music stand on a regular, recurrent basis, and moreover if you place fake books or heavy folders on it, not to mention reading lights, more than likely the Manhassett will still be an essential first-line piece of equipment. What I've found most frustrating about the Petersen design is packing it up after a gig. The 5-6 pieces have to be stored in a precise, exact manner or the box simply won't close. I've spent as many as 20 minutes before giving up the fight. I've even consulted the Petersen site in search of a diagram to no avail. If, like me, you're an individual who embarrasses himself and provokes his wife (those problem-solver father-in-laws!) every time he tries to pack the car trunk for a summer vacation without wasting a square inch, you just may find the Petersen design more of a hassle and headache than a handy space-saver. I'm beginning to suspect the product is more suited to an engineer's or chess player's temperament than a musician's.
