Pyle Compact Tabletop Microphone Stand -Mini Desktop Mount w/Height Adjustment 9’’ to 13’’ High & Universal M-6 Mic Holder-Solid Round Base for Home or Studio Use w/Lock Tight Clamp PMKSDT40, Black

I initially bought two of these for my kit, as my streaming and podcasting grew, I order four more for our group sessions. Thet are very sturdy and lightweight and leave a small footprint. We have found that these cool little mic stands are not overbearing, nor do they intimidate our guest.

Much sturdier than I expected.

I can't vouch for holding a microphone, but this is the perfect height to hold my new HDTV antenna and set on a high shelf for better reception. Included a cable clip to tidy the coax cable. Simply rotate or move around a bit to improve any stations that aren't coming in as well. The metal base is heavy and keeps it sturdy.

The base is a heavy, solid metal, as well as the bar. The clip is plastic, it feels chintzy like it might break from the force of the spring. The clip can't be secured to the stand, which is a design flaw. The mic flops around when you move the stand if it is not balanced. I had to put a rubber band around the clip to secure it. There's also no way to tilt/lock the mic. There should be a screw on the side so you can angle the mic where you want it. The clip doesn't have rubber grips either, so the mic slides out of position frequently. It's still a decent stand, definitely better than what I had before which was nothing.

If you wanted something that's not likely to fall over easily of this height, this is great. I picked out the heavier one of this type for security in knowing my valuable equipment is going to get knocked over. The extra pound or so is worth it as protection to the equipment just like a heavier bag is worth it to better protect your stuff. Even when being hit by something the heavier base keeps my equipment in place.Very happy with it.
