ARST Single-X Adjustable Keyboard Stand (Black)

I received this piano keyboard stand today, the delivery was fast and before promising time; when I ordered it, I was concerned it won’t fit my 61 Key keyboard piano RadioShack MD-1121, but after taking me less than 4 minutes assembling the parts and set my keyboard on it - le voilà - this simple keyboard stand is the perfect match: 100% stable, lightweight and solid and looks pretty - I love it! Would buy it again if I need - definitely recommend it for its universal use, its stability, looks nice and its little price!

I thought I might be taking a risk by purchasing this keyboard stand for less than $40, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's super easy to assemble. Its height is easily adjustable. It is sturdy and well-made. Great value.

You can't beat the price, and though the suggested maximum weight for the keyboard (150 pounds) seems excessive, the basic components--the "X" bars, two feet, and two upper tubes--are made off rugged metal that, unlike some other stands in the same price range, will not bend or break. And once assembled, the stand is a convenient, travel-ready single piece that weighs in at a featherweight 5 pounds (finally, the piano player catches a break!). A couple of considerations may discourage purchase: 1. The otherwise unclear instructions state unequivocally (and with underlining): "When the upper tubes are installed correctly, the end of the right tube will line up with the end of the left tube." It then repeats the same statement (again with underlining) about the lower tubes (the "feet" of the stand). Indeed, I was able to line up the two lower tubes because the holes were drilled lower (or higher) in one lower tube than the other, thus compensating for the intervening flat bars of the "X" framework. By contrast, the two holes in the two upper tubes (holding the keyboard) were less "staggered" than those in the lower bars, requiring some experimentation before they lined up). 2. Once the bars are screwed in properly, the stand is tight enough to offer convenient, one-piece traveling and strong support. I'm finding it a bit bothersome to fold the stand, only to discover a "rogue" cross-bar extending straight out from one side. The solution is to move the middle crossbar screw to a hole that's several holes in from the outer-most hole. Then the stand will close without any "spill-over" of the crossbar screw. 3. Last, the stand disappointed me when I extended the cross-bar fully to see how low the stand would go. I'm 6-feet tall, and I'm afraid it was NOT quite low enough to match my arm position, even with the screw moved to the most extended position. It would work fine with a piano bench, which I no longer have space to carry. To accommodate a player using an ordinary house chair, the stand would need to go lower, esp. since most pianists prefer to have the keys closer to their naval than at chest level. (Maybe an extension piece from an erector set could be inserted to widen the crossbar and lower the stand?) Final word of caution: This stand can be more "precarious" than some, since the strength of the whole framework depends on the tightness of the screw in the middle of the cross-bar. Be sure to play with the knob of the screw toward--not away from--the player. And check it periodically for tightness--or else! (You could have a short night, along with a shorted-out board.)

Could be sturdier, but easy to set up and move.

Nice, easy to assemble keyboard stand. Works well, but does not secure keyboard to it.

The stand serviced its purpose for the first 2 years I had it. On year three I had to get a new one because this one was falling apart. It was super wobbly and parts would come off whenever I moved my piano. I used it until I couldn't anymore, the bottom support stand broke off and it became a hazard to keep it any longer. I would only use this stand with a lightweight Casio keyboard and wouldn't move it around the house too much. When I upgraded to a heavier Roland keyboard I had to get a double- X stand which is much sturdier. I would recommend just going for a double-X stand first though.

Perfect portable table for the Casio keyboard. Good value for the price.

Buena calidad, facil armado, bastante ligero, ahora solo me falta comprar el teclado :)

Compré estos pies para un teclado CASIO CS-3000, pero el paquete que llegó a mi domicilio parecía haber estado antes en otros lugares. Al abrir el paquete, que parecía haber sido abierto antes, faltaba la tornilería y también la pareja de brazos (o pies). Es decir, si en el interior de la caja debían venir dos pies, dos brazos, el sistema de tijera y la tornillería, faltaban la mitad de los componentes. Absolutamente inservible. Los materiales parecían sólidos y, en general, quizás hubiera servido bien a mi necesitad, pero lo he devuelto, pues no se puede utilizar en esas condiciones.

En lo personal el stand lo considero resistente ya que es mi primer stand y soy principiante, los materiales pudieran sentirse de no mucha calidad para ser Casio pero les comento que son muy buenos, resistentes y en general muy liviano, por el precio lo recomiendo mucho.

It does its job, not super stable but works. But i got a big problem with the rubberthings which are suppossed to grant better fit for the Keyboard. Those smell absolutely disgusting. You an smell the cancer more or less. After on Month i threw them away and going to replace those.

Very sturdy and stable. I got it for my Casio 550 keyboard.

My most recent purchase is the Korg liano keyboard which weighs about 13lbs. Easy to carry around anywhere and I thought I could carry a lightweight x-stand with me perhaps to busk on a street corner. Not too bad but I do wish it was cheaper in price as I could have bought one that was cheaper but I decided to pay the price on this one because someone indicated on their review that you could use a zap strap to tie the two horizontal bars together in order to lower the height of the stand of which is one of the things that I wanted to do is to lower the stand to about 18" high for playing from my recliner chair. Folds up pretty quickly but leaves the horizontal bar sticking out at odd angles. I could remove the bolt in the middle and fold the horizontal bar inwards. Good strong stand but could be cheaper in price.
