Decent Product For The MoneyMarch 9, 2010 Video Editor(NJ, USA) For the money this is a decent product. Having said that, I'm pretty sure it would not hold up under the strain of extensive daily use as it is somewhat cheaply made. I have two of these stands and I use them about 4-5 times a month for my artistic photography and for basic head-shots. I use these stands exclusively with Photoflex Litedome XS softboxes and wireless Nikon SB-900's hotshoe strobes. This setup is extremely portable, lightweight and has a very small footprint. I can grab the whole setup with one hand and place it most anywhere. I went with 4 stars because for me the product works very well. Please keep in mind that I use these stands with small lights/softboxes. I would not recommend using these stands with large heavy lights/modifiers - Your Mileage May Vary.
Good Quality for that price!March 9, 2010 David Anchondo(EL PASO, TX, US) Good size and materials. i mean is not an italian design but does the job! great for starters and amateurs! not for pro.

OK for the priceMarch 8, 2010 Butterfly User(Boston, MA USA) This light stand is pretty good for the price. It has a good maximum height (remember that if you're attaching an umbrella, you will need an additional 1-2 feet of vertical space), but doesn't collapse too small (it is about 2x the length of my tripod with the umbrella adapter attached). It is lightweight, but not very stable at max height with an umbrella and canon 430ex attached. It is made of cheap material, and the spring inside does not sound like it will last very long...it makes metal-on-metal sounds sometimes.
However, it does what it's supposed to do, and at a low price. I would recommend it as part of a beginner's first lighting kit.
Fantastic value for the priceFebruary 13, 2010 R Gibbons(Silicon Valley, California) This was only $24 with free shipping. Great value for the money. The quality seems sufficient for the occasional use I'll give it (however, Not built strong enough for a professional studio heavy duty use). I don't have any fears of placing my $400 flash on this unit with umbrella, it seems sturdy enough.
Great for the price.February 8, 2010 M. Johnson(Utah USA) Great product for the price. Fairly well built and lightweight. Will probably need to sandbag the stands in windy conditions.
