Great Stand!
I ordered two of this and I’ve found this boom arm very sturdy.
However, the cymbal still rotated left and right slightly after fastening everything tight and I’ve found the reason was the plastic fastening joint somewhat didn’t grab the bar tight enough…
I thought the screwing the screw tight might solve the problem but it didn’t.
It happened only to one of them and the other one was fine! Indeed I use it for the ride cymbal (which is much heavier) and it holds tight!
So I guess it was just a bad luck…
I solve the problem by holding the head of the cymbal in my palm and “screwing” the small bar tight. It surprisingly rotated freely….. (I guess it was the problem..) but I’ve found the sweet spot where it was screwed tightly.
And now it works fine.
After all, I’m satisfied with the stand, price wise!

Nice addition, does exactly what I need it to.
Nice addition to my double tom stand, also purchased from Thomann. Let's me add a crash to this stand and becomes very versatile. Very durable and stable, have tried my friends 22" ride on it too, just to see how it holds up and it was great, didn't move an inch. A lot of other company's do boom arms that are quite expensive when they all really just do the same thing, this boom arm is great and the price is great too. I will definitely be purchasing another of these, maybe with a clamp to attach to another stand so that I can mount an off hand crash. Great product.
