This was such an easy Decision to get this product other than the price (which was one heck of a deal) As I have one already is doing far better than expected! Closest thing to a broadcast Microphone boom arm that. I have ever had.

Awesome huge boom arm for big desks!

Great Mic Arm! Perfect for people with bigger-sized desks like mine who want the freedom to move the microphone across. I do not recommend it for people with smaller desks, as it is pure overkill and protrudes pretty high up.

Currently using this to hold up a small projector, and hasn't sagged at all over several months. Very easily adjustable and the mount is sturdy.

Amazing boom arm for its price!

This boom arm is really great, considering its price. It is not made of cheap metal; it is very durable. On top of that, even though the boom arm was slightly too large for my desk, it can reach over both of my big monitors flawlessly, which is gonna be useful since I plan on upgrading my desk later on.
I'd highly recommend this boom arm for its quality and the size, since 48" is really handy regardless of how far away you need your microphone. Not to mention the price. :)

Better than the Rode PSA1

You should definitely get this one over the Rode PSA1. It has a higher weight limit and reach. The arm is sturdy enough for me to mount a mirrorless camera on it. However, you may need a 5/8 female to 3/8 male adapter since it doesn't seem to come with one.

GREATEST BANG FOR YOUR BUCK STAND

Best bang for your buck mic stand, holds big big mics like the condenser blues (of course not a full blown blue bottle but a baby bottle or SL). Still works great as a streamer or studio mic. Skip the REALLY cheap amazon stuff and REALLY expensive blue / rhode arm and get this.

It’s great but the only thing that stops it from being a 5 is that it’s a little stiff by the part where the mic goes and at the elbow but other than that it’s great I would recommend it.

Use this every day to have my HyperX Quad RGB mic reach over my 27” monitors. This was the main reason for going with a 48” boom. Highly recommend to reach over larger monitors. A bit flimsy but all of these consumer boom mic stands are to a degree.

Smooth and stable arm. It can be tightened down a lot so that the movement is very minimal. It works perfectly for my standing desk

Took me forever to find a microphone arm big enough to suit my desk setup but gave this a shot once it finally came in stock. This was exactly what I was looking for to come in over the top of my Odyssey G9.

This item works just as well as the Rode bracket. It is stiff but that’s ok. I also drilled it directly into the dry wall. It holds your very expensive mic better that way.

Excellent quality and very sturdy

I purchased this one because it's longer than most arms are. It's very high quality and sturdy construction. My only complaint is that the joints are stiff and difficult to move, but I loosened them with a screwdriver and it helped a little bit. The good thing is you never have to worry about it moving, but it would be nice if it was a bit easier to move.
