Customers are satisfied with the sturdiness of the stand. They mention that it is one of the most reliable stands that folds up into a smaller size. The stand is substantial enough to use outside, and the quality has been reliable over the years. The clamps are more secure and hold the stand up well. The base is wide enough to prevent wobbling.

68 customers mention65 positive3 negative

Customers are satisfied with the adjustability of the stand. They mention that the legs are easy to adjust, and it's sturdy enough to hold a 1 pound. The stand adjusts in height very easily in two places and it can be set very high if you are. All adjustments can be tightened down so there's no flopping around of the desk. The plastic rather than metal, adjusts quickly with flip-lever bindings rather than screw bindings. The adjustments lock down so it does not give way.

"...It sits securely and I love that the desk part is adjustable. It can be flat or any angle all the way up to straight up and down...." Read more

Excellent: easy to operate clamps, effective clamps, sturdy, stable, holds 3-inch binder (filled), good carry bag. A bit bulky.

Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2018

Style: SMS-20Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

Good features despite some bulk when folded. It has large, easy to operate and effective (1) cam-clamps on the telescoping tubing and (2) turn-knob for adjusting the angle of the desk. The tray is deep enough to hold a 3-inch 3-ring binder. The width spans a 3-ring binder. It's stable and heavy enough to use outdoors in some wind and with heavy binders. The carry-case straps are long enough to enable shoulder or back-pack-style transport. The only drawback is that when folded, it is about 5" by 5" around because the desk consists of 4 sections, each about 4 inches wide (the vertical tubing retracts to about 2 feet long). Previously, I tried two other stands. One is a mid-weight foldable metal stand. It does hold a 1-inch binder and has more heft than the spindly $10 stands, but you end up reading at knee-level because it relies on set screws to fight gravity on the telescoping metal tubing. Also, the adjustment knobs are small and hard to turn. Another model I tried has a solid steel desk that never folds. For transport, the riser tubing and legs come apart and slip into holders on the back of the desk. The desk to tubing connection broke very quickly. We received a replacement connection, but the stand does not feel sturdy due to its design.

Really, Really Love This Stand!

Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2017

Style: SMS-20Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

After reading all of the reviews for this stand and for others I chose this one. It is absolutely perfect. I teach meditation and this is ideal for the days I teach from a seated position in a chair. It easily holds notes, my timer etc. For my longer classes, I take a 3/4" or 1" notebook binder and open it onto the "desk" part. It sits securely and I love that the desk part is adjustable. It can be flat or any angle all the way up to straight up and down. I got the one made of tubular steel rather than aluminum. It feels sturdy. It is super, super lightweight making it easy to carry. So light that I can put it over my shoulder while carrying other things. I have never had any issues at all with it tipping over. I often work outside and it is sturdy enough for that. I can't believe how easy it is to put up an down. Literally, probably less than 30 seconds. Obviously, I love this product and am thrilled this is the one I chose. I haven't found a down side. Since i work outside, I purchased a couple of plastic clips (Long Beach Music, Music Stand Page Holder-Clear Grip 2-Pack). They work extremely well with the notebook I use with this stand, sliding easily when I need to move pages but keeping everything from shifting in the breeze. Enjoy!

The Bentley of Music Stands

Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2021

Style: SMS-20Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

I'm a cellist and have used the classic stainless steel stands for years (tip overs, music sliding off, parts that nestle but can be unwieldy, and fast-release clamps that may or may not work).

This stand is a wholly different experience! It is beefy, black, elegant, easy to assemble, portable, very adjustable, and comes in it's own case (though because the manufacturers made the case no bigger than necessary - it can impossible to fit if not completely collapsed).

The stand itself is made up of 2 pieces: Base + shaft + tray back -- and tray lip. The base comprises 3 thick tube legs with rubber ends, that connect to and pivot away from the shaft - providing an almost earthquake-proof stability. The tray piece extends via hinges and is stabilized by the lip (the other piece) that connects using tongue and groove. The lip has two pivoting "hooks", supposedly to keep music from sliding off but they are not spring-loaded so offer no draft protection (my ONLY real criticism).

For storage: The legs fold against the shaft whilst the tray rocks backward and (with the lip removed), collapses *around* the shaft and legs. Incredibly clever design!

The product is moderately light, very stable, very attractive, and *wide* -- perfect for practice, solo, or "black metal stand" events (though it would certainly be conspicuous amongst a sea of silver stands).

I can't recommend this enough!

At long last... a sturdy stand!

Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2022

Style: SMS-30Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

I have gone through multiple music stands in the last several years. All of them seem to break after 9-12 months, partially because the screws that allow you to adjust the stand height stop working. This stand has clamps, which are more secure. While the base of the stand is surprising wide (the legs extend much further than I think is necessary), it is portable, easy to reassemble, and holds a good amount of weight. Also, this is the first stand I’ve really been able to properly use as a tall person (I’m 6’4” and the stand adjusts even higher than I would need it). I’ve already recommended this stand to several folx. Buy it!

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2016

Love this stand, I use it to take to my guitar class weekly. I gave it 4 stars because it remains to be seen how the plastic tray part and the folding and unfolding will impact it long term. For now it is a great stand totally portable, not hard to transport and it is much easier to put this together than the other wire ones that fold up small, I hated those. This is really easy to raise and lower, it's easy to assemble the stand piece and I don't have to worry about my books and music falling off the stand. There are two moving arms which help you keep your music in place and the plate is even sturdy enough to hold my cell phone. My understanding is that Peak makes a cell phone clamp, but for me I don't need it.

I also love that this stand is the taller one which means my husband is able to use it when he plays the sax.

Update 6/8/16
I am still using the stand and it works great and is easy to transport and put together during guitar class. Having said that it is made of plastic and I think for me to get years of use out of this stand I will need to remain cautious not to strip the plastic fasteners, but this so much easier than those metal folding stands which in a senior moment I forget how to put together.

Still glad I purchased this and have had several people inquire about my stand.

Superó mis Expectativas

Reviewed in Mexico on February 1, 2021

Style: SMS-30Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

Al principio, al ver el precio de este atril, me pareció una barbaridad. Pero, al adquirirlo, puedo decir que valió totalmente la pena. Yo lo compré ya que soy un violinista que mide alrededor de 1.93mts y gracias a esto, se me ha imposibilitado comprar un atril a mi altura que evite que me encorve al tocar. Leí la reseña de un contra bajo de estatura arriba de la promedio, que lo compró más que nada por la altura y que había quedado satisfecho. A decir verdad, la altura es uno de los principales puntos por el que te llama la atención y lo adquieres pero, cuando lo recibes e instalar, ves que la durabilidad, los materiales con los que esta hecho y la estabilidad, son otro mundo. Claro, no negare que está más pesado que lo de un atril promedio, cuando lo transportas en la bolsa que ya incluye. Para mi ese punto, es lo que se debe de pagar por un producto de buena calidad.

Excellent stand.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 2, 2021

This is the second Peak stand we’ve. Bought. This model is more a conductor’s stand as it goes much higher and as a result is s a bit heavier. Good carry bag and folds down very well.
I’d definitely recommend.

Brilliant music stand!

Reviewed in Canada on May 6, 2020

Style: SMS-20Pattern: StandVerified Purchase

After being gifted with one years ago, I've been paying it forward and gifting this to my musician friends. This music stand is amazing. Lightweight, compact, sturdy and able to hold it's own in nearly any situation. Easy and quick to assemble. The stand adjusts easily to heights ranging from sitting to standing. It can handle the heaviest of music books, especially in a stiff crosswind. Even the wee little page holders are tough and not flimsy looking. It also does well with slightly uneven surfaces. Though this stand is not the sleekest design, but it does certainly get attention and have a fairly high "cool" factor. The bag that you pack it into is compact and unassuming, which makes this music stand that much more awesome. Excellent buy for your money. Highly recommended for any musician who travels and needs a music stand.
