I've been reading comment after comment here to see if this little stand is enough to support my heavy Shure SM7B. I decided to find out for myself and the answer is yes, it is. Surprisingly, even when stretched to its full height, it feels solid and well balanced. One of the screws seems to frantically loosen (but not fall out) but is fairly easy to tighten with an Allen key. Really looking forward to traveling with it, it's a great stand for the price.
