Great stand! I love it. Perfect for my needs. After reading several reviews on this, I must say that I have NO issue with it at all. Many claimed there was a portion of the stand that breaks easily, but, I have no issues at all. I highly recommend it to any bassist. As a plus, it actually holds my baritone ukulele as well. Had to lower it as much as possible but, it worked. Get this stand - you won't regret it!
