Does it's job
The last, thin pole, is in no way steady enough to allow tilted mics since the whole boom will rotate. If you don't need that feature, and most won't, then this is for You.
The stand is easy to operate and the quality is good.

Good for the right application – not a workhorse
I bought the On-Stage SB96+ with very specific expectations. I wasn't looking for a workhorse that would be moved, adjusted and repositioned all day long in a busy commercial studio. If that is what you need, I would probably recommend investing in a higher-end stand.
For my application, however, it makes perfect sense. I needed a large studio stand that could be set up in one position, hold a fairly heavy microphone securely and then stay there most of the time. For that kind of use, the SB96+ does the job very well.
You can certainly feel that this is not a premium studio stand. The construction and adjustment mechanisms don't have the refinement or confidence of much more expensive professional models. But that has to be considered in relation to the price. I simply couldn't justify spending three times as much on a stand that isn't going to be adjusted or rolled around the studio constantly.
Once assembled and properly positioned, it is stable, practical and perfectly adequate for my needs. The casters are also useful when it occasionally does need to be moved.
So my recommendation depends entirely on the intended use: for heavy daily studio work with constant repositioning, I would look elsewhere. For a home or project studio where the stand will mostly remain set up with a microphone in position, the SB96+ offers a lot of functionality for the money.

good
This stand is so useful and sturdy too.
You can adjust the height, angle, direction.... it is so easy. For this reason, it can withstand the weight of a heavier microphone.
