K&M 141 MKII

This stand is excellent to let your double bass rest. Excellent stability, overall good quality, very easy to mount.

Pros : stability, quality, reliability, ease of use... and one of the best feature is you DON'T need to unscrew or dismount the endpin of the double bass ; you can adjust the stand so that your double bass fits in it with the endpin out. Very useful for people like me who don't want nor to lose their endpin adjustment, neither wasting the pin as you screw/unscrew it every day.

Cons : can't find any

The price is pretty high but in my opinion it's good value for your money anyway. I wouldn't buy a cheaper one ; I think that about 100 ¤ to ensure your (extremely expensive) instrument won't fall down is pretty fair.

I am very pleased with this stand so far, being used for a 3/4 size double bass.
It has been quite stable when used at home, at show rehearsals and during shows.
The spike holder is very useful and I've felt reasonably confident leaving the instrument unattended.
Also during reheasrsal and shows I have left the instrument in the stand while playing. I was not expecting to be able to do this and it has been especially useful during longer periods of dialogue etc when I was able to sit down.
The stand also folds up to be reasonably compact and lightweight. I have made some small pen marks on the main stem of the stand so it can be returned to the same position each time it is used. Perhaps a small marking system could be introduced for future models.
Upon delivery, I decided rather unusually, especially for a stand, to look at the instructions but could only find in German. I think it would be useful to have these in in other European languages including English.
