Lightweight but strong. I wanted double-braced when really a single would do, just for that added weight at the bottom. I have a Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute I bought new in the late 90's. It came with all 800-series hardware, so I was skeptical of buying a lesser series and more lightweight stand. But once it was in my hands I could see that it is of the same Yamaha quality as my 800-series hardware. I had straight, single-braced, old and crusty cymbal stands before buying this one, and it's nice to have the performance and adjustability of a new stand, and keeping it all in the family with Yamaha. I liked it so much I bought another, and now all my hardware is Yamaha!

Great for 16" cymbals and smaller (and maybe not heavy enough to mount a tom to). But, what I noticed is the "teeth" won't let you set the boom arm at it's highest/steepest angle. You have to drop the angle of the boom arm one "notch" for it to fully lock/tighten. Only an issue if you want to match angles of your boom arms (because this one lays a few degrees flatter). :)

I'm impressed! Compared to a Drum Workshop stand at double the price, this one is sturdier, more stable even with a 22" ride cymbal on it and the boom extended, has smoother operating adjustments and has a much better feel of "quality". I've had similar impressions of a Yamaha hi-hat stand vs. Drum Workshop as well, so this was not a surprise. For the price in particular, a wonderful value!

The stand is doubled braced, versatile, and sturdy, however not too heavy...Excellent stand and easily priced.

It is a good stand. Just do not hang anything off of it. The post are not strong enough to hold the clamps.
