Neewer Desktop Microphone Suspension Boom Scissor Arm Stand with Clip Holder Table Mounting Clamp and Pop Filter Windscreen Shield for Studio Broadcasting, Singing, Recording(Red)

It holds an SM58 with no trouble at all. It is definitely for home studio use only. You can't really fault it at this price. The Pop shield is a nice touch.

I bought this originally at some time in 2018. The reason I am on here right now is I've been looking for a good replacement which I think I have found.Sturdiness: At first, it works well. This is on a microphone BELOW the recommended weight limit. Over time, it constantly loosens and I have to re-tighten it.Value for money: I bought it for 12.99 GBP however it is now 15.99 GBP. It's a good value. It is VERY cheap and you get what you pay for.Durability: Remember, I have had it for 2 years. The bottom of the arm that goes into the clamp, first of all, has gone VERY soft. It is no longer a perfect circle. It has worn down so much it cannot tighten well. It has also bent so that the arm now leans forwards/downwards. This is a pain and ruins the sturdiness. Durability is a flat 1/5.The middle of the arm has a spot to tighten it. The plastic grip for it as cracked and fell off and I now have to use pliers to tighten it. This is very inconvenient as it sometimes loosens over time, but it's mostly the end one holding my microphone that loosens.Overall, I do not recommend this and instead recommend a higher quality stand at a slightly higher price.Remember, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR.

This mic stand ticked all the boxes for me from the get go, however, there's a few flaws which i'll mention in this review.The clamp is great, and will fit some of the more thicker desks out there, which was a godsend to me as my desk is very thick.My main issue with this mic stand is the springs, such that when the mic stand is extended, the springs move slightly, making a hideously loud "PIING" noise, which is heavily audible and my friends on Discord say resonates through the mic for up to 8 seconds, so if you're wanting to make podcasts, best not to move the stand when recording.The pop filter included works great, and i've had no issues mounting it.The clamp can ocassionally losen, causing the stand to become loose, and i've once had my entire stand fall off my desk due to the clamp loosening.Overall for the price this is a great budget friendly mic stand.

It does it's job and it's great value for its money. However, when adjusting the arm it sometimes makes a little "spring" noise and that sound will last for about 10 seconds and it could be a problem if you do any sort of recording/streaming. I don't do any of those I just bought it for casual use with my blue snowball ice and it does its job. The plastic on the clamp seems to be coming off at the bottom as well but it still seems to be work fine. (This is my first review on Amazon).Sturdiness: 4/5Value for money: 5/5Overall: 4/5

The main design flaw with this product is how the arm mounts to the desk clamp. It relies on a screw that presses against a holo metal shaft when tightened. The metal for the shaft is very soft and there's does not provide a threaded hole for the screw to lock into. The problem with this is that over time the shaft becomes worn and flimsy. Eventually, the weight of any microphones will pull the arm down due to the shaft bending/buckling which is completely unrelated to the main section of the boom arm and tension springs.What would have been much better, is to have a solid metal shaft that the desk camp screws/locks into, then have a rotating lockable ball joint. Similar to what you would find on a Manfrotto PIXI Mini Tripod.However, if you're not concerned about long term use, it's cheap and does the job. If you want something that would last you longer than 6 months, then look at investing in something else.

On delivery, I didn't expect this item to be great given how much it costs. I was however, pleasantly surprised when I opened it. The item is well made, generally sturdy and great for a amateur set up at home. The pop filter works well and the sound doesn't appear muted to people that I game online with. The reason I've had to give it four stars is because sometimes I wish the pop filter had a little bit more flexibility (seems a little too rigid) and the boom arm was a little more sturdy as sometimes getting it in the right position can take a few attempts with it dropping ever so slightly.

Unlike many of the other reviewers, for me both the arm and popfilter arrived both in a good condition as well as tightend so i barely had to adjust anything. Im currently using it with the Bluew Snowball ICE which weighs aproximately half a kilo, and it holds it up with ease, besides that it does require a bit of force, which is fine in my case since it proves that its a sturdy product. However, if you wish to use it with a condenser mic like the blue snowball, it can be a bit tricky to remove the end, but losening a few brackets such as the crosspoint between the black aluminum bracket, and the clear metal rod. Im still surprised of the quality of this product compared to the price and other arm like it, such as the RØDE version which costs about 3 times the price.

Does everything it should for a boom stand with pop filter.Strong enough for Blue Snowball and to make it fit, you need to unscrew the inner part of the mic clamp and screw it into the blue snowball but it all comes as part of the package. I did need to rub a little vaseline on the metal joint where it meets the clamp as it was quite snug and didn't allow much movement but it works as desired now.Only downside is that the mic still connects directly to the stand so it will pick up on hard knock vibrations from the desk but for less than £20 I wouldn't expect a floating mic setup.Pop filter is nice but the clamp isn't the strongest or sturdiest. But it does the job perfectly well. Happy streamer
