How is it this cheap ?!
Comming from similarly priced chinese shock mount, this thing does amazing! Not only does it help with bump pickups when touching the stand, but it also seemed to isolate the bumps comming from the desk that my arm is mounted on.
The screw is wide enough and clamps easily, and the mechanism seems not to require lots of tension to keep in one place.
Build quality:
The outer ring is made out of metal that does not resonate with bumps and the outer rubber bands are thick and are covered in isolation (think: heavy duty hair bands).
The inner ring is hard(ish) plastic and the bands that actually hold the microphone are naked thinner soft "wet-ish" rubber.
The connector is made from thick plastic and the screw hole is made via copper insert.
Everything seems to be made to last, but the only concearn I have are the soft naked inner rubber bands, which might "dry out" after a while... but I guess that's why you get two spares in the box and I'm sure you can buy equivalent bands in any of your local hardware stores.
Conclusion:
If you need a shock mount: GET. THIS. NOW.

It has a good fit on my AKG D5 S mic and all the noises coming from my desk were cancelled. Initially I was using a regular table mount with some rubber feet, but every time I was touching the desk I could see the VU-meters raising. These nasty noises have stopped since I got this shock-mount. For its price is very good indeed, definitely recommended.
The outer shock-mount is metallic (aluminum perhaps), so it is solid and should last.

Superb Quality item. Very reasonably priced. Thank you.
Versatile shock mount just try it to see how good it. I'm delighted I purchased this item and would have no hesitation in buying again if needs be.

Great value, two stage shock absorption, fits most microphones, small ones may need adding some bulk
Very well thought out shock mount. Two stage shock absorption where most compact mounts or lyres have just one stage absorbers.
Small front address microphones ("pencil microphones") with 19-20 mm diameter fit very loosely. You need to use the included rubber band in front of or behind the suspension bands to prevent it from sliding out of the mount.
Better yet, get two thick rubber bands per microphone to put between the microphone chassis and the shock mount.

Great value
Even though spec says max 40mm, this fits 52mm diameter mic (AT2020). The mic itself is held between the elastic cords, so it adapts very well to any mic size. Works very well, and costs next to nothing! Worth every penny.

Works as promised!
Using this shock mount with t.bone MB 60, they work great and the noise from the table doesn't transfer to the mic. Recommended.

the t.bone SSM 6
Отличные держатели за свои деньги. В него помещаются не только микрофоны указанного диаметра, как к примеру мои Lewitt LCT040 но и более толстый RODE M3.

Handy to have kicking around the studio.
I bought this to have a more universal mic holder.
Pro's - This will accept most mic types and provides a pretty firm grip once the mic is in place.Very good value for money.
Con's - The build quality is good for light to medium use but i think that's reflected in the price.
I find myself reaching for this cradle every once in a while and i'm glad i have it.Good swiss army knife for your studio,large or small.

Surprisingly nice!
Seeing the photos I was expecting a regular sized plastic, e-bay grade shochmount, but it's in fact metal, big and sturdy!
Its size makes it useable for almost any mic, but it's especially good for handheld dynamics, it's the best mount for my Sontronics Solo.
I only have it for some weeks, so I don't know how it will become after a lot of use but for that price I recommend it without a doubt.

Better than expected
I use this product with Røde NT5 microphones in my home studio. I bought these because Røde does not supply shockmounts with the NT5 set.
Pros:
The outer ring is made of a metal, which is really sturdy. The shockmount is quite well built and holds the microphones well. The shockmounts include an extra set of elastic bands.
Cons:
When in 90 degrees position, the mics are a bit too heavy and slide down the elastic bands.
