3.0 out of 5 stars An honest assessment, January 27, 2009

Let me start by saying that once you get these stands put together they ARE very sturdy and will support a 30# speaker w/o toppling. However, putting them together-- and some of the overall quality aspects-- need to be addessed. As others have stated, these stands do not come with assembly instructions, rather, simply a picture. Granted, a monkey could probably assemble them by the picture alone *IF* he had great patience-- which neither monkeys nor humans do (I know I don't...)First off, the screw that holds the top plate on stands a 50/50 chance of having its threads marred and then having to be crossthreaded to attach to the riser pole. Not a huge problem since you'll probably never take it apart but there's no reason for such a nuisance. If the manufacturers (chinese) had simply made the non-threaded hole 1/32" larger the problem would be solved. The "cable management" system consists of 2 plastic grommetts the you push into 2 holes on the top and bottom poles. 3 of the 4 broke when I ran my monster cable through them. Again, not a big deal-- black tape would work fine. But one thing that IS A PROBLEM with these plastic tabs... if you want the poles to the absolute minimum height (24") you can't achieve such because these grommetts get in the way-- until they break. In other words, the 'cable management' is a joke. The floor spikes work fine (the picture doesn't show it but the round threaded washers need to be used with the spike to lock them down). There are also rubber spikes for use on wood-- cheaply made plastic; be careful when screwing them into the threaded metal. Last but not least, "QUIKLOK" gives you a sense that the height can be adjusted w/o effort. Nothing could be further from the truth. The winged screw must be entirely removed and re-screwed into the new opening. Finding the threaded metal acceptor in the upper tube can be a challenge.

I gave it 3 stars because though they are quite functional they also has some cheap aspects-- not to mention lack of directions for those who need more than a picture (by the way, I'm a licensed contractor and quite used to tools and gadgets. I'd go 4 stars if not for the quasi-false advertising. But for what I paid? you really can expect much more.

5.0 out of 5 stars What I needed for heavier speakers, September 8, 2008

This stand is just what I thought it would be. Very Sturdy. The top plate is large enough for nearly any speaker size. No complaints, it doesn't wobble, however all I have is a bookshelf speaker, nearly 15 pounds on top of it.

I wanted a sturdy, adjustable height speaker stand, and I'm happy with this. The 5 height settings are just fine.

A few notes.....

- The included instructions are very bare, only 1 diagram. Most of it is self explanatory, however I am still unsure where the 3 washers are to be installed... Perhaps they go with the carpet spikes? This speaker stand includes both carpet spikes, and rubber feet. Also included, are 2 plastic clips, to help hold the speaker wire close to the pole.

- This is for ONLY ONE STAND. When I placed an order, I didn't pay much attention, and assumed it was for 2 stands. Later, after the item had shipped, I went to the item's description and noticed it was for a single stand. Oops.

A good stand, and especially useful if you have heavy speakers you want to use as surrounds in a home theatre.

I can see where the parts are not of the finest materials and machining available, the threads are a bit coarse, so take care lining it up, as to not cross thread the bolts. The drilled holes on mine lined up perfectly, which is usually the problem I run across with prefab stuff. No directions, but just a little of Ikea logic can get it done. It took all of twenty minutes to assemble. I would not recommend it for anyone who requires frequent adjustments, or reassembly.

It's holding a 30 pound monitor, on a carpet, at it's full extension, without using the carpet spikes and is plenty sturdy. It has pre-applied rubber pads to reduce vibration and holds the speaker, just like a speaker stand is supposed too. The biggest frill for me, was the price. I'm entirely satisfied and wouldn't hesitate to buy another.
