So good I bought two.
Originally bought one to mic a guitar cab (which I never got, thanks UPS) But upon taking it out the box I thought "damn that has some weight to it."
Screwed it into the base, slapped a mic into it and fiddled with it, unlike the mic stands from my college days, these actually stay in place and don't drop slowly, it's amazing. The wire clamps keep the wires where you want them so I thought "y'know what? I'll keep this one on my desk and i'll just buy a second one." Gives another meaning to the phrase "buy cheap buy twice". Highly recommend.

Perfect budget option
Very stable, great for setting up mics on a guitar cabinet.

Stable doesn't quite define it
Got it to record my guitar amp without raising it too much, and was pleasently surprised when it arrived. It's heavy. And boy, do I mean heavy! A lot of other mic stands I've had over the years couldn't really be trusted to still stand when fully extended, but this one can be trusted with it's full range of motion no problem, mainly due to the base plate being so amazing.
And finally, it looks great. I really like Millenium products because they're inexpensive, and at worse they do in a pinch, but sometimes they do so well that you became a loyal customer, and this is the latter case.
Did I mention it's heavy?
Heavy means reliable. If the club owner doesn't pay you, you can always throw the mic stand at him.

Great for mic'ing an amp
I bought this to use for amp mic'ing using my SM57. For the money it is great value. I have it in my home studio meaning it is not moved around much. I am not sure it would last that long if it was set up and taken down regularly, but for a relatively static use, I cannot fault it.
So for use in a studio where it is not changed too often, it is perfect. The base is circular and designed to take up a minimum of floor space. It does mean setting the stand up initially will require you to balance the beam, but the advantage is the minimum requirements to the surroundings.

Surprising number of uses for a little stand.
I picked this up for live miking my guitar amp (I can be much more exact than the old 'hang over the front' trick, and I like an SM57 on my cab), and it is great for that; stable, adjustable and the base screws off for packing away.
However, I also use it all the time in my home studio; miking up acoustic guitars, on the desk for recording scratch vocals, all kinds of stuff. This is a great little utilitarian stand, and everyone should have one!

All as expected
Solid stand - not too light, not too heavy for a table top mic holder that is easy to adjust.

Drum kick and guitar
We use it for both drum kick mics and gutar amp recording. Solid and very useful. I like the screws.

Great stand for bass drum
Works great for my bass drum, though the arm is a bit too long for me.
