Works great in my setup
I use this extension to "link" two x-stands and have an upper keyboard while playing standing. Varying the distance between the lower stands solves the problem of the limited adjustability that you may face if you play seated. Also, you can improve the stability by having the braces tilted to the side. In the upgright position, they swing quite a bit if you play heavy.
Pros:
- Low price
- Stable, at least in my application
Cons:
- Cheap build: one of the screws is scraping against its hole, even when loose and not mounted.
In conclusion, I would suggest giving it a try and see how it works on your setup. Worst case scenario,Thomann's aftersales service is always on point.
EDIT: After a couple of months of reharsing 3 days a week, one of the threaded holes has broken. I had to replace the tightening screw with a slightly bigger one, otherwise it would not clutch on the stand.

Does the job but could be better
I bouth this for my 49 key midi keyboard that weights 3 kg and while the stand does hold it up securely there are a couple of problems (at least with mine):
1) my keyboard doesn't sit flat. I fixed that with a little bit of padding on one corner
2) I wish the vertical posts could be taller. it doesn't make sense, since normally a keyboard stand would be set-up quite wide and because of that the vertical posts of this extension would have a narrower angle resulting in less vertical height
3) those plastic things that hold the keyboard from sliding down aren't mounted in the same angle and one is not holding my keyboard at all, but since I use the midi keyboard very lightly it's not that big of a deal for me.
4) maybe I didn't notice but I'm pretty sure that the nuts for those bolts that you use to mount it to a stand were missing
All in all, for the price and for what I need it works great!

Very restrictive
Bought with the Millenium stand. Went on easily but needed three hands to set it. It is not wide enough to use when the stand is wide open for a seated person, the arms are at an angle pointing inwards so the supports on the front do not nod the upper keyboard very well. May work better for a standing performance where the lower stand is not set so wide. My Yamaha keyboard on top has gaps on the underside to I've had to put a pad under it to stop it wobbling. Very difficult to level as the teeth, which stop it from slipping, are fixed.

Price vs. Quality
I needed a solution to stack my Stagepiano with a Mini-Synthesizer, so I bought this realitve cheap solution. I use it with the Millenium KS-2010 and it was easy to mount the Millenium KS-2010 Ex on it. It's stable and doesn't move if you locked it, but it's a little bit annoying, that you've got three "Fixpoints". Also it doen't have a Quicklock for previous settings, so you have to adjust it every time. Further you have to get it exactly parallel, because if one of the legs isn't as the same height as the other, your keyboard is going to wiggle while playing, very annoying. But after a while you're going to habituate with it. So it's a cheap, stable solution, though, I wouldn't buy it again.

bonne solution pas chère!
cette extension de stand est de bonne construction et robuste, elle peut néanmoins être compliquée à fixer sur certains pieds de synthés.Plutôt stable, elle assure un bon confort de jeu

Not very impressed.
This bulky extension didnt fit very well onto my existing stand. clunky and difficult to stabalise. Really not a great option.

not bad
main trouble was it did not fit 100& on the main stand - it was ok for the few shows I was doing but would not be totally happy if I were playing keys full time.

does the job
I use is together with Millenium KS1010 keyboard stand, I must say they don't go perfect together, but if you don't want to spend a lot on it, it will do the job.
I wish the plastic holders on the front would be adjustable, because other wise it is difficult to put the laptop in the right position.
