    • Super happy with the ease of mobility
Style: MBS7500 Pro Boom Arm
I was willing to pay 100+ dollars for a quality and easy to move arm (this was on sale for half off when I got it), and so I was looking at reviews on YouTube and the video I found for a different arm had this arm in their video as a baseline, because it was an arm they really liked and he showed it off a little bit before proceeding to the other arms I originally came to the video for. For being half as much (because of the sale) as the other arms I was looking at, but still being easy to move and having good range of motion and sturdiness with no sounds or squeaks gave me a strong belief I wouldn't be disappointed and I was right! I love it! I strongly recommend saving your money and getting this on sale unless you're looking for more bells and whistles. A sleeve would have made it 5 stars for me. ... show more

    • Was obviously returned before it got to me
Style: MBS7500 Pro Boom Arm
First of all, this is a nice mic stand. Not my preference over the Rode PSA 1, but second to it maybe in the price bracket. I'm on a learning curve about buying my own equipment versus using someone else's, so a tip if you're brand new to this and looking - you can't squeeze anything bigger than a micro-usb head into the port where the casing can hide wires. I'm not skilled at soldering, so I wrapped my wire between the arms and shrugged it off. It moves and flexes silently, though I had to spend some time bending it around to get it to loosen enough to feel like it would stay in place. Using a Spider Shock Mount and an AT2020 with it, everything works fine. The clamp metal is nice quality, the screws are solid and it's generally easy to install. Don't pinch your hand in the bars though, whatever you do. It hurts like hell. I took a star off because it was purchased as "new" but some of the arm (specifically, the inserts, where there would have been more movement" had damage and chipped paint with scratches, as though it had been used previously. The packaging was a 6/10 at best once you got through the one amazon ships it in. Some of the smaller boxes weren't even physically capable of staying closed, so as soon as I pulled the arm out of the product box, I had to go scavenging for screws and the hex key. Random pieces of hastily attached clear packaging tape and a series of broken zip-ties half-held the larger cardboard items together, not offering them much protection Obviously, the packaging does not affect the functionality of the mic stand, but I can't exactly say I was impressed with how it arrived. There was a lot of potential for more item damage or missing parts, which I would have likely replaced at my own cost. ... show more

    • A real space saver!
Style: MBS5000 Boom Arm
I work remotely and practically live on Zoom calls. On top of that, my new role requires me to give formal webinars and record videos. When I switched over to a professional mic, my husband loaned me a tripod mic stand with weighted boom. It took up so much room and partially blocked the pathway to my desk. This boom arm is the perfect solution! I was able to secure it onto the side of my desk, and can now pull my mic as close as I need it to be, high or low, in front of my camera or off to one side just out of view. The moving joints and swivel base can be left to move freely or locked into position with a thumb screw. Very happy with this purchase! ... show more

    • Don't even bother with the others
Style: MBS5000 Boom Arm
This is the ONLY spring arm at or near its price point that will actually hold a heavier mic (such as a Neumann) on spring-tension alone, without having to lock down the adjustment knobs (which would defeat the purpose of having an articulated arm). At 38" extension, it is the "sweet spot" in being long enough to attach to the back edge of a desk and still be tall enough for the arm to stay out of the way. Most of the cheapies have only around a 28" extension, in addition to being weak. If you don't have a $100 for a Rode arm, check out the On-Stage Stands arm. You won't be disappointed. Also, with a little ingenuity, an iPad clamp could be installed to make a very solid iPad mount. ... show more

    • Pleased so far - meets representations
Style: MBS5000 Boom Arm
I needed a table mounted stand for use for Zoom meetings and podcast production. I selected this one in part because of the integrated cable. It was very easy to assemble out of the box. I don't know long term how its "tension" will hold up b/c I have had it only about 3 weeks. I am using it with a Zoom mic and although it was easy to mount on the stand the stand adjustments for the mic's placement seem a little limited. ... show more

    • Seriously. Save your money and use it for something else. So frustratingly bad for such a simple product!
Style: MBS5000 Boom Arm
Pros: The XLR cable seems OK Cons: Basically everything else. The table clamp is horrid. It can successfully clamp, so at least it has that going for it. When you drop the boom arm assembly into the table clamp though, it can't swivel. If you hold it up about 1/2 inch, then you can get it to swivel back and forth, but you also have to hold that little peg vertical now, meaning it takes two hands, one at the base and one at the end of the arm, to successfully maneuver the arm. There is also too much tension on the springs. Perhaps if you have a heavy mic, this would be fine, but for some of the lighter ones out there, the arm just wants to lift itself all the time. Which would almost be passable, if the locking screws at the pivots actually did anything. The one at the main elbow doesn't resist movement even tightened as far as you can go. The knob for the mic holder does in fact clamp the rod successfully, allowing it to hold the mic without it falling out the bottom, but it doesn't have enough force to allow you to snug your microphone's screw mount without that rod twisting in its clamp. The locking screw on the back of the clamp is also useless, which I suppose would matter if the arm swiveled freely. Luckily it doesn't, so there's really no need to lock it from swiveling, since the arm doesn't want to in the first place. The locking screw's issue, however, is that there is maybe half of a thread engaged when you try to screw it in with the boom arm installed. So as soon as you *start* to snug the screw, it just rips the threads right out and falls out of the base. As for the XLR cable that's pre-installed: It seems somewhat OK. I couldn't be bothered to test it, since the rest of the product was so bad I had no desire to continue using it. One thing to note is that the way it is run through the tubes of the arm, there are a couple of points where it is BADLY kinked, which I'm sure will be no good for long-term use. ... show more
