Slightly different from the picture, but good stand and bag.,
One plastic knob (I think it has metal screw threads, though) tightens the leg position, another one tightens the height adjustment, and a sturdy metal “T-handle” tightens the music shelf angle adjustment. All of these rely upon friction to do their jobs. They work well right now (I was able to put a single-volume dictionary on the music shelf!) but might they loose their “grip” over time? (I had been looking for a stand that had metal levers like my old childhood one, in the (unsubstantiated) believe that they might hold tighter or be less likely to break.)
Other characteristics of the stand:
– max height of music shelf (with reasonable stability) is 42″, and the top of the stand is 53″
(it is NOT high enough for a standing adult)
– weighs just under 2.5 pounds in the carrying bag
– folded length is 21″ (maybe add an inch to that to account for the bag overlap)
– the rubber tips on the ends of the legs stay in place even when pulled hard
– the chrome finish is pretty good, and consistent
– stamped “Made in China”
– unlike my childhood stand, no parts detach while folding
The carrying bag is made of surprisingly thick nylon fabric and seems to be well-stitched. It’s appropriately-sized (i.e., it’s not too hard to get the folded stand in or out). It also:
– closes with a flap and velcro
– has a large (2.5″x4″) “On-Stage Stands” logo in white
– has an adjustable over-the-shoulder carrying strap, although it’s made of rather thin nylon webbing
Overall I’m quite satisfied with the purchase and believe it will work out quite well for my 10-year old child.
