Very high quality stand.
This is easily the best mic stand I've ever used, it's rock solid and has a very large footprint, making it strong in every direction.
The bottom shaft and the legs are very thick, meaning it has a low centre of gravity, and is really difficult to accidentally knock over (if it's even possible to do so).
One slight downside is that it is rather heavy, and can be cumbersome to transport - although it does collapse down into itself quite well, making it small enough to carry under one arm without bumping into everything.
For the price I'm very pleased, and expect it to last many years - also, the parts which may fail can be replaced, meaning you can just fix it, rather than throwing it away if it does break.
I bought it with K&M 25905 'micro-stand', which is a perfect partner for vocals and guitar, as this has quite a high ground clearance, whereas the micro is shorter, thus it fits snugly underneath and can get two mics very close together.
This stand is especially well suited to holding a stereo bar, as it is very strong - even at full extension (vertically and horizontally). I've used it for drum overheads and over an upright piano, it holds my Oktava mk012's very securely for hours without even the suggestion of stooping.
All things considered, exceptionally good stand, easily worth the money (buy cheap, buy twice), and good looking to boot.
Thomann, as usual, were brilliant in their service.

Strong and sturdy
I own multiple K&M stands and the reason for this is they are quality at a reasonable price. I've owned cheap knock off stands etc and always find the 'buy cheap buy twice' motto to hold true always. the locking devices on these are not cheap and flimsy, nor do they tend to sag or work loose over time like the cheap versions you can buy. This saves time and money in the long run. I have torn these down 100's of times to move them around to venues and around the studio and there as good as new still. This is another work horse of the studio and worth every penny.

Sturdy build
I was looking for a reliable mic stand for also vocals, recording acoustic and electric guitar. The first one that arrived had its min pole bent. For a while a thought ok, not a biggie, can live with that. But then when used for multiple occasions I realised it didn’t hold in specific positions because of the tilt. So I wrote to Thomann that I want to return it. They were super helpful. So got a new one, which is perfect, and my review is regarding that one.
The locking mechanisms are really stable, don’t have to apply to much force to keep in place, so they are not wearing down. The whole thing is very stable, don’t have to worry about bumping it. It can hold more heavier mics as well. The adjustable boom arm is really handy, as it allow to use it for different uses, heights. Really covers a wide variety a arrangements. Easy to handle, and quickly adjustable.

Quality costs but is worth it in the long run!
After messing around with generic stands with non user replaceable parts and limited life span, I decided it was time to up the ante and invest in some proper stands. These are the industry standard for a reason. Built to last, they stay where you put them and will last for years if cared for. I bought for the overhead condensers on my drum kit and they are just about perfect. The extendable boom allows me to position mics exactly where need. Don’t skimp folks! If you use mics regularly in any settting these are the best out there.

Great stand for not too much money
I always used the cheapest mic stands I could find, because I assumed there couldn't be that much difference. I was completely wrong.
This stand is very sturdy. I don't have to be afraid it will fall over when I bump into it while playing. Everything stays right in place. It isn't even that much more expensive than the cheapest ones.
All in all agreat value for the money.

Perfect
Professional stand. Small boom but extensible. Correct height even for tall singers. Boom doesn't sag with the weight of heavy microphones. More stable. Plastic knobs but replacement available. Excellent!

K&M. Enough said!
The usual K&M quality. I know there are other stands out there with more ‘interesting’ designs/quirks/‘innovations’, but anything other than K&M just disappoints! I’ve used these (or slight variations of the same) for circa 30 years on umpteen jobs. Still my go to mic stand.

Amazing!!!
I think K&M doesn't need any introduction, it's indestructible and very stable! A masterpiece of German production. The higher price compared to other brands is totally justified by the fact that if used correctly, it will probably last you a lifetime.

a mix of efficiency and durability at its best!
This boom stand is simple looking and great for on-stage/Studio use. It can be used for any kind of setting; The boom’s basic length is 46cm, but it extends up to 77cm. As for the stand’s height, it starts from 90cm and can go up to 160cm. Both of these can be easily adjusted. It's built using industrial standards that ensure the product is well suited for professional use. Considering this, it's most definitely good value for money.
