Best saviour ever
When I bough my Sabian SBR performance 4 cymbal pack, I realized I didn't had enough cymbal stands. When I looked at the priceing of the stands I realized that I didn't had enough money for all that. Thankefully, The cymbal boom arm was at the rescue. the millenium CBC-set 03 is a FANTASTIC boom arm for it's price. It's easy to handle and belice me when I tell you that it can hold a 16" crash an just on a regular and cheap Hi-Hat stand, and the best part is, it doesn't even wiggle that much. I mean, when you play hard rock or heavy metal it wiggles a little bit, but it never reached the point that it would fall or anything. I'm sooooo happy that I found it. Really is a life saviour when it come to drums and budget :)

Bombproof and not too heavy
Okay, so no-one is going to look at the photo and end up salivating with delight at the prospect of an add-on cymbal clamp and boom arm BUT it's worth making sure you're buying something decent or you'll end up buying again!
This is a great piece of kit - solid enough to take a decent sized cymbal so it's not just for splashes, it'd comfortably take a fairly heavy weight cymbal and the stand won't budge.
Where you can slightly tell the reduced cost is in the smoothness of operation - it's not quite up there with the more expensive hardware but let's be fair, look at this price.
Well done Thomann, it's another belter!

Great flexible stand for light splash
Pros:
Very flexible, you can extend the boom arm and position it in basically any way you could imagine. I've had it in the most awkward positions around my kit and it always manages what other stands I have really couldn't do.
Cheap! very cheap considering how much other stands cost. There is a very similar stand for slightly cheaper but this is much better as it has the boom arm that extends.
It stay's tight which is essential and sadly not all boom stands do this.
Cons:
Not really suitable for larger cymbals, even 14" would be pushing it I would think personally. It might be fine but I feel it's not sturdy enough to handle much weight, stick to splashes for this one in my opinion.
The foam is very thin, I swapped it for Gilbrator foam and that sorted the problem.
Overall if you're looking for a way to position you're splash, pick this up!

Very practical
I personally very much like these clamp stands; you don't need so many normal stands around and clutter is minimized.
I actually have a straight stand to which I've affixed three of these and also a double cymbal extender pipe, now I admit it looks like Dr. Frankenstein made it in his spare time but it's quite useful, I assure you.
Good build quality, clamp stays where you put it.

Nice arms
I use two of this things for my splashes on gigs. They do well their job!
Good price. Good quality.
If I will decide to add another splash, I will buy one more.

Really solid piece of kit for the price
This has great adjustability and easy to fit to a variety of stands! I have noticed they have updated the design slightly over the older ones, as this now has an 8mm thread rather than a 6mm, and the cymbal sleeve is at the bottom rather than part of the wingnut.

Pretty useful
I got this for my splashes , i saw the other product which was 2 euros cheaper but i saw that this was a boom arm with a holder, it's a smarter buy because it can double as a boom cymbal stand, on a straight one and you can use the the straight on the clamp, it is very useful and cheap.
It is very stable once you have stirdy hardware, but sometimes it loosens up, not in shows but in long periods of not playing the drums ( maybe it's just my case )
Very good product, i highly reccomend it since it is just a piece of metal that other companies sell their hunks of metal more expensive, thanks thomann!

Works well.
I wish the tightening wingnuts were a bit chunkier, and that the main tube had some grooves to stop it from spinning around with big cymbals or heavy stuff like a cowbell. But for the price I can't really complain, it works great.

Excellent additional Cymbal stand
This extension cymbal clamp is excellent for the money!!! Attaches to an existing cymbal stand and has the added boom arm with cymbal fittings. Works out much cheaper than buying separate clamp & arm.
Fitted well to my millenium CS- 901 cymbal stand and although the arm is not of the same quality it holds my 10 inch splash cymbal securely and with the extension boom gives me good choice in position around the kit.
Holds position well and all fittings are well constructed.
Thoroughly recommend this!!

Fantastic product
Very nice cymbal boom arm. Very flexible to position and stays in place. I would recommend it to play only with light cymbals though, e.g., nothing heavier than a 16" thin crash, but I think this piece of hardware works best with smaller cymbals (12" and below).
EDIT: I ordered a couple more of this arm and the wingnut from the picture has been changed for a plastic sleeve and a not very good looking metal wingnut. I'd say this kind of wingnut is more prone to unscrew and be lost. Also, the plastic bottom cap of one of them had a quality problem.
