Thia is my first c stand and it is “absolutely” phenomenal. This light stand is a beast!

Weight is perfect. Comes well packed in a non-descript cardboard box. Could hold easy pretty heavy setups and moves smoothly across the floor.

Only used the stand about 5 or 6 times, pretty bummed. Unable to use it and even though it is still under warranty with adorama, i need to ship it costing me $60.
