Pros:
Easy Setup, Lightweight
Best Uses:
Artificial Lighting, Photography, Portraits, Strobe Lighting
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
It is light and sturdy enough for not very heavy lighting equipment.
Unfortunately this stand is not compact - folded it is about 4' long. I have another stand - 3 section - it is much convenient to store (about 2.5').
