I like to get small desktop stands and use them for the mics in my guitar cabinets. The BILIONE travel tripod is as small as possible. Quality is ok, doesn't seem particularly durable but it's ok to hold the mic. My only problem is that after unscrewing the microphone clip. the microphone indicates where the clip ends. The midshaft doesn't rotate, so if you want to tilt the legs to a certain angle, toggle the mic on/off. it is impossible. Even with its intended use as a desktop mic stand, if you want to use a heavier mic and want it to be more stable, you can't distribute the weight to a specific leg. However, you can always unscrew and try again to find a better ending point as it gets stretched out. it's a little annoying. BUT it's right next to my cabin, it has a mic, it's very accessible and does its job, so 4 stars!
