You don't have a Manhasset MH-48? Get one. You'll keep it for life, because it lasts that long. I teach in two schools and the majority of our music stands are Manhassets built BEFORE 1970 (when the bottom collar design changed). The only times we need to buy new ones is if our program grows and we need more, or if inferior stands from other manufacturers give up the ghost. I only specify Manhasset stands at my schools. The only thing I wish were better about these stands was that the paint finish would be a little less prone to scratching.
I just received one of these stands, the first I have ordered in a few years. The piece that connects the post to the desk is now made of plastic. Disappointing.
The Manhassett stand is one of the best music stands available. Have worked with these stands since childhood and they have always been durable and solid. In my experience these stands are the pick of most schools and music groups.
I decided that my wire stand was too flimsy and weak for long-term use, and I looked for some Wenger stands (these are the ones we have at our school, and they are amazing - but unfortunately they aren't sold anywhere except for the retail stores, where shipping is expensive) but couldn't find any. Because I needed to use a WWBW gift card, I bought this stand instead. The stand is well made and sturdy, but note that the desk is made of a thin metal, less than 1/8 inch thick. This isn't a problem for me, since I don't move the desk constantly up and down. If you keep it in one place, this thickness is great. The height of the stand is ideal - it is around 2.5 ft at its lowest and it reaches over 5 ft. Overall, this is a quality product - and like others commented, I think it will last a long time. :)
I've tried other stands thinking they might be just a little better in some respect, but there are some things that are standards for a reason. This is the standard. You may like some other stand also, but you won't regret getting one of these.
