This isn't necessarily bad, not by a long stretch. However, it is not good either.

To begin, a couple of dodgy things that have annoyed me over the last few months of having this:
1. The swivvel that moves the mic further away from the mic, side to side, up and down, etc (useful for recording instruments and vocals while seated - this broke off after only a few months of very VERY light use, thus rendering the stand more or less useless.
2. The height-adjusting twisty bit is quite loose. This means if you put almost any downward pressure on the mic the stand will slide down toward the ground. This is frustrating if you like to put youor hands on the mic in a live setting ie: video or gig.
3. Any sound or vibrations in the ground seem to travel up and get picked up in the mic - unsure if this is only this stand or if this is a universal issue though so maybe check for yourself.

Overall, this comes as part of a package deal and for what you PAY it is fine. It does the job. Just be careful, it's not strong.

I use this as a spare stand. I think other reviews say enough. You get what you pay for. It still finds its purpose.

After using this stand for some time, and not very often or very extensively, the boom part just broke off, the metal just snapped. So the quality is weak.

Universal & Cheap

This mic stand is much better quality than other brand cheap mic stands of the same type. Just make sure you don't overtighten things and ruin the threads or break some plastic parts. Get a feel for how tight things need to be to be perfectly stable.
It can hold two mics which is a great thing. On a certain drum setup, you can mic the snare and the rack tom using just one stand.
This stand could be very useful at a very low price and functional in the home studio if used appropriately.

Does its job, for a while
Nonsensei 13.11.2019
Cheapest mic stands do what they're supposed to do, but don't expect this to last long even in basic use. We had two of these break after about a month of use. The plastic angle adjustment is quite fragile and will likely break sooner or later. You can still use the stand as a straight stand, which is fine for vocals or certain instrument micing, such as room mics for drums or cab mics for guitar, as long as your guitar cab is elevated on a chair or the like.

Stability is fine. The angle adjustment is the biggest problem due to its lack of durability and it's a bit wonky even before it's broken. But at this price point you can't really expect much, honestly.

Not that much experience on different mic stands but this is noisy if stand is rotated. Horrible noise :D Although using cheap samson dynamic mic with this one at the moment. The mic I use is not too good rejecting handling noise. It is still a cheap stand and does feel ok stability wise. Just don't get too crazy extending the boom all the way in horizontal position. Not really meant for that I guess but just saying.

I need to have a microphone held still at the height and angle I want. Once set up, it'll stay in position until I need to move it again.
This is probably a good use of it. I have some doubts about the boom/upright locking mechanism as it is plastic plates with a rubbery/neoprene-y ring held under compression. I'd imagine this is the weak spot, and indeed other reviewers allude to this. For me, this is for mic'ing cabs. The option allowed by the additional screw mount atop the upright is used for a room mic when playing about at home.
Overall then, I have doubts about the longevity of the boom clamp, but no doubt at all that it is a bargain stand for the penurious, has some flexibility, is very stable, is quick to set up ( careful about tensioning! ) and tear down and if I ever learn to sing in key/at all/ not flat etc, or take to stage announcement, I'll buy another. I look after kit.
EDIT:
The clamp longevity issue reared its head. I was using the stand, doing some backing vocals ( in key ! ) when I knocked the stand over. Yup, clamp snapped. It's still holding together, but for how long I don't know. I'll just replace the clamp with a stronger one and get on with it.

It's affordable
Wilson WIlsonson 31.01.2021
Use in the studio as mic stand for drummer.
The most obvious con is that it falls over most of the time.
Probably can be used with light mics and without extending the arm too much.
