Dangerous for a guitar!
Zman 14.03.2022
The quality at first seemed to be great and the stand is very compact and portable. When I placed my guitar onto the stand, it seemed like it held it pretty firmly. It seemed to hold my guitar almost better than my regular stands.

BUT, after 3 minutes I heard a loud BANG! My $2000 Ibanez JS hit the ground and was dented. I could not believe my eyes.

At first I (wrongly!) thought I might have placed my guitar onto the stand a bit carelessly. I inspected the stand for a couple of minutes and could not find the obvious problem with it and could not understand why my guitar fell from it. I thought it must have been my error. But I was wrong.

Now I placed my guitar EXTREMELY carefully onto the stand, tried to rock it left and right, in every direction to see if it would slip and fall and I made sure that my guitar was sitting safely on the stand.

Now it seemed like it was rock solid.

3 minutes later - ANOTHER BANG! And another dent...

Then I realized that the problem was that a plastic body of the stand is not firm enough, it is too flexible. It starts to warp/bend slowly under the weight of a guitar (And btw Ibanez JS is not the heaviest guitar out there), you don't even notice it. But it keeps warping and bending, very sloowly, its' legs start spreading further and further away, while your guitar slowly slides to side and at one moment it just slips and falls onto the ground.

Maybe it could work on a carpeted floor, which would prevent its' legs from spreading apart, but on a hard floor - no chance.

Extremely dissatisfied and frustrated.

As good as any
chrisie friday 17.12.2021
Just tried this out .Yes it cost £6.60 I bought 2.wow.If you pay the 8.00 postage its still great value.
It's very well packaged and would make a great Christmas present.They fit in my gig bags of my Harley benton gs travel and Fender newporter.
I have just tried the guitars on them.I have a HB 35plus And a HB jaguar,I'm not even going to try them on these stands.I would not trust them in a gig don't think they would be stable enough and you may forget them as there tiny.im not sure how long they will last?but 6.50 it's worth a punt.Remember these cost 6.50.For that price I can't be critical.But they are great to park your axe on if you want a break.If it falls to bits after a year its no big deal.It you want something better,pay more money.It not rocket science. Good value,well built,if its it not good enough for you don't buy it.ive just order a further 5 for some friends.Take no notice of any negatives.This is a great product at fantastic price.There are identical product ot the market at double the price.I have just ordered a further 3 for friends.take no notice of these who are very critical,these are the best little stand for the money.If you do break one it's no great deal.Its just as easy to bust a dearer one.If you own a expensive axe again that's up to you.i dont,mine are work horses.

Has it's uses but not universal
Anonymous 12.01.2016
I bought this stand because I was intrigued by the design and it looked like it could be easily carried around. The plan was to use it for live shows to hold an electric Strat shaped guitar.

While the shape is really cool and the folding mechanism is a really good idea, there are a couple of cons that prevent me from rating this higher:
- The stand is flimsy and does not look like it would survive much beating and being careful with portable guitar stand is not what I was planning
- The fold out procedure is very easy to get wrong and if you apply a little too much force while opening from the wrong end, well mine doesn't quite close fully anymore.
- The guitar slides and while this isn't a problem if you set it carefully, it is impossible to just quickly set it on the stand like you do with a metal one

To sum up, it is a good portable stand if you are very careful with it and, well, this is the type of equipment you don't want to worry about. For my use, a metallic stand from Millenium is a miles better deal.

Not great
Eggos 07.12.2017
Unfortunately, Millenium missed the mark with this one. The stand is of very poor quality. Composed of all plastic, the stand is wobbly, and difficult to place your guitar on. I bought it for gigs but I couldn't trust my guitars on this stand even at home. The only real pro this stand has going for it is it's portability or form factor. It's super light, folds up very nicely and is great to bring along with you wherever you're going, but it just doesn't hold your guitar very well, which defeats the purpose of it being a guitar stand I guess. Although it might be against your preferences for a giggable guitar stand, I do highly recommend buying something made of steel or metal to host your guitars on during gigs. I feel like a gust of wind would blow this over. You can even see how hollow the insides are. It's just cheap plastic. Shipping and delivery were great though. Fast, prompt and well packaged, with tracking information provided by email. Thomann appear to be very reliable and although this particular stand isn't their best offering, I can vouch for Thomann as a company and service.

Poor stand Millenium but good job Thomann!

Not recommended for hard floors
stobbsyboy 02.11.2020
So I bought these to sit extra guitars on that I didn't have space on racks for - they work great on carpets - you can accidentally gently knock them without the guitar falling over - roughly same amount of abuse you could give a regular stand.

On hard wood or laminate floors you can't put medium weight guitars on them, there's not enough grip in the feet and they go wide at the front of the stand - practically had a les paul strap button touching the floor, it's not a big deal and you can mitigate it by tying the front of the stand with string to hold it together or put a felt pad where strap button would be.

Where the stand falls apart completely (not literally) is really heavy guitars - it just splays out under the weight and wants to fall backwards with an Epiphone double neck on it (obviously not its intended use but I thought I would test it anyway)

Overall I bought 5 of these, and only 3 are now in use with strat, tele and acoustic and they hold those perfectly well with no issues with the strat and acoustic being on carpet and the tele being on laminate, I ended up buying a 3 way rack to handle my spare les pauls, but if you have a particularly light les paul it should be ok on a hard floor

Great option for having your own stand at a gig
DanielLeonov 23.04.2024
Pros:
* Lightweight and compact. Fits in the gig bas easily, so you can always show up to a session or a gig with your own stand. And easy to put it away ito a closet when you don't need it.
* More reliable than beaten up guitar stands provided by venues and rehearsal spaces. You can have your own guitar stand that you trust in a gig bag.
* Really easy to fold and unfold.
* Aljustable for different body widths.
* Has rubber parts at every point of contact with a guitar.

Cons:
* Way less reliable than a proper guitar stand. You need to first really get familiar with it's shortcomings before you trust it with your favourite guitar. If you place a guitar on it off-center, it will eventually fall. But once you learn to use it properly, you won't have any accidents.

Conclusion:
Great choice for scenarios where you can't have a proper heavy duty guitar stand. It's also worth checking D'Addario Guitar Dock as an alternative - it's a different form factor that's way more reliable, more compact, but requires a specific surface to clamp to. But this fold-up stand is more versatile. I use both. But at home I still use proper heavy duty guitar stands, this stand can't replace those.

The stand is very unstable: when he put the guitar on it, he turned it all around, the guitar was unstable on it. The stand might be suitable for an acoustic guitar, but it’s completely unsuitable for an electric guitar, let alone a bass guitar.

Very disappointing.
Peter4544 25.07.2024
Unstable and therefore unreliable and therefore unusable. I too had the problem of carefully placing, a heavy bass guitar on the stand and finding it lying flat on the floor face up 5 minujtes later. No damage, but not to be done again. Maybe things would be ok with a lighter weight acoustic instrument, but I would really not recommend this item.

OK - hasn't fallen over...yet!
Griffiths 21.11.2021
I am looking for space-saving ways of having some of my guitars in my so-called studio. I bought too of these and they are certainly space saving. However, they don't appear to be terrifically sturdy. I haven't kicked a guitar over yet, but I think it's only a matter of time given how clumsy I am, how little space there is in my studio and how unstable these look.

Flimsier than i expected
Kaptin Marko 05.10.2021
Got this for ease of packing and transport. The small form factor is great if you have to travel quite a bit. its easy to use and simple to adjust.

The issue I have with it is that it may be a bit too lightweight. your average guitar should sit just fine, but I find that i have to be quite careful with mine or it may randomly fall over. the plastic is very thin and i have doubts about how long this unit will last. I'll update after some road use.
