Strong little guy
Used those at work when nothing else was available or when we had to carry the gear on long distances. We used and abused them, and they resisted to everything we threw at them. I ended up choosing one for my personal needs.

light and compact
I do a lot of field recordings and I have to carry mic stands for long time and distances. This stand fits into my backpack and it is super-easy to carry it around.
Ah, it also gets the job done: easy to mount stereo bars and mics

perfect lightweight stand for on the road.
I'm a sound artist and field recordist. I use this stand to put up microphones (in a blimp) in a variety of settings. It is a perfect travel companion.
So I record sounds in the field, this could be in the street, in the Savannah, rain forest, Tundra, or Icy lakes. My 5001B has travelled everywhere with me. It either holds a rode or a cinela blimp with several microphones. Frankly, my 5001B has seen a lot of abuse, including being covered in sand, mud, sleet, a lot of knocking about in the back of the trunk. And it still goes strong. I notice no friction when I collapse or unfold the several parts. Weighing less than a kg, it's a no brainer to put it in the field backpack. Stable enough to either hold one blimp with stereo mic or DMS set for example. Or a lightweight stereo bar and two mics in AB or ORTF. A heave stereo bar with two blimps on it is just too much (it can handle it, but it will no longer be stable).
If you need to put up anything in the field (mic or lights), this is the stand your looking for, at a ridiculous low price no less.

Nano Stand
I use this for a mic stand, its lightness and small size when folded down is ideal if toy want to save space. Its light but strong and sturdy.

An excellent stand for the travelling musician!
I know this is supposed to be a lights stand but I got it as a microphone stand together with a boom. I needed something small to take with me when traveling and this stand was the only thing that fit the bill. I didn't expect anything great, however I can say it is surprisingly stable. I highly recommend getting it if you are a traveling musician who needs to travel light!

Great stand for microphones on the road
I bought this stand because it's so small that it will fit into my luggage which makes it perfect for when I'm on the road or more to the point flying somewhere to do field recordings. Has adjustable nut sizes to suit simple light rig, cameras mounts and microphones so it's very versatile, very light and compact.
A great piece of kit.

Solid stand
Quite expensive, but definitely worth the money. All parts seem very well machined and reliable. The legs are very long, which makes the stand quite stable (and it doesn't need to be heavy!).

Perfect as a compact mic stand.
After trawling online trying to find an ultra compact, portable mic stand, I settled on the nano and wasn't disappointed. Yes it's fundamentally a lighting stand, yes it has no boom but it's a well built, surprisingly sturdy piece of kit. It has been ideal for small gigs where all that is required is background music. Now a trip to the stage is just my guitar, my Fishman SA-220 and a briefcase on my back with my gear. No more annoying mic stands getting in the way. Highly recommended.
