Keep The Wife Happy
I have a growing collection of guitars with a seven unit case rack and a pile of individal stands. Whilst the case rack is fine in general it doesn't like the weight of multiple Les Pauls sitting on the bottom and the case is now bottoming out on the floor rather than on the feet. I therefore decided to source a more rugged multi stand to offer more support to my heavier guitars and leave the case for acoustic and lighter double cuts. This keeps not only me happy but the Wife as well, as she has less clutter in my studio to contend with and hopefully less objections to another addition to my collection.
The nine unit rockstand has proved to be ideal as it is non obtrusive and light weight whilst still easily handling the loading of a Semi, four Les Pauls and three double cuts plus various guitar straps draped over the spare partition / neck supports. It is really easy to assemble as it only requires you to unfold the base from the back and voila. I have it sitting on top of a dresser which I keep my tools and spare parts for working on my instruments. It appears well balanced and really shows off the guitars, whereas before they were at ground level. Good buy, good price and good service.

Space saving product
I used to keep my guitars on hangers on the wall, but I ran out of space.
My rack is holding 6 x six string electrics (5 with trems), 1 x bass, 2 x acoustic.
The acoustics are a little bit tight and I keep the deepest one at the back but other than that it's a great product.
Tip - when you buy it, fill any spaces with cheap guitars then swap the ones in the middle of the rack for more expensive models and your partner will never know (unless your young son, with eyes like an outhouse rat, points to it and says "that ones new").

Good for the price
I've had my Rockstand for over a year now and it's still going strong and has never caused any damages to my guitars.
If you're looking for an easy way to store all of your guitars then this is the stand for you. It's as compact as it can be and feels sturdy.
If i had to criticise the stand, there would be two things.
1. As there are no separators on the bottom of the stand, no one ever puts the guitars back in properly and you will spend your life resting the guitars back in properly as they will either be wonky a touching each other, or not seated properly between the two pieces of foam. This stand will leave you a little frustrated and bitter towards anyone who picks up a guitar :)
2. The neck rests at the top of the stand have a little plastic cap on the end to finish off the peg. Although this cap completes the look, strings can easily get caught underneath it where it meets the foam. This can be a bit of a shock when you almost rip the strings off your guitar.
So basically, be careful when picking up or putting down guitars and prepare to feel like you work in your local guitar store as you spend your days making sure your guitars are nicely lined up.
(Still a great stand, i'm in no way slamming it)

Decent.
The stand is pretty stable and the foam seems to protect the finishing of the instruments. It also saves a lot of space. I am pleased with that.
Regarding the finishing of the stand itself, I am not impressed. I feel Thomann sent me a unit they had lying around. Mine has some visible scratches on the side, the paint on the surface is worn and there were a few "dents" on the foam, as if some instruments had already been placed there.
I also had to clean some dust from the plastic pieces, at the bottom.
This does not seem to be an issue as the stand is not broken and I hope it will last a long time, not damaging my instruments but I would've liked to be sent a brand new piece. It didn't look like that.

Too weak
It seems the dimensions of the upright beam are just carried over from the smaller variants without accounting for the extra load of many instruments. As a result the top part sways a lot and leans over backwards meaning the stand takes up LOADS of floor space as it has to be positioned a good half meter away from the wall in order for a number of bass guitars to stand steadily without hitting the wall. Avoid this and find another solution.

Lovely!
I bought some more guitars and needed a new stand. I bought this one because it was cheap but to my surprise, it's actually really good!
It's stable, sturdy, slightly compact but does the job well. Careful not to bump one guitar cause you'll bump them all like dominos! Another thing I like about it is that it arrived assembled. Thanks for saving me some time Rockstand!

Literally ready out of the box
Opened the box and it was ready for use! What more could you want? :)
I use it for storing my guitars in their gigbag, and even with the gigbags I have enough space, it's great and perfect for me!

The perfect fit!
This product is perfect,as it fits into the designated space. The size for the space worked out exactly as I wanted, and it keeps my acoustic and electric guitars safely displayed and no longer propped against the wall! I`ve even managed to place a 5 string bass in there as well.The only guitar that doesn`t really fit is a Randy Rhoads,but they are a nightmare anywhere you put them !!The guitars are secure and safely displayed from possible damage. It looks nice and keeps the area from looking messy. I was surprised how quickly it was assembled and easy to manage, as I imagine it is made to be portable. Product is not flimsy and doesn't feel cheap. Very sturdy and good quality.I`ve placed it against a wall for further stability It's a perfect purchase, I am very happy with it.
