After revolutionizing the industry in 1974 with the introduction of the first folding base C-Stand, Matthews Studio Equipment continues to lead the way with their comprehensive range of C-Stands and accessories. The Matthews 40" C+ Stand with Turtle Base and Grip Head and Arm, Chrome, 4-Pack is an essential tool for professionals in motion picture, television, and photography, offering unparalleled support for lighting and lighting modification.The term 'Century Stand' harks back to the early days of cinema, where large 100-inch reflectors, or 'century' reflectors, were used to bounce sunlight onto sets. This historical significance is embodied in the modern C-Stand, which has evolved from its original welded base design to a more versatile and portable solution. The Matthews C+ Stand features a unique removable turtle base, allowing for easy disassembly and transport without the bulkiness found in other models.Designed with a staggered leg configuration, these stands can be nested closely together, optimizing space on set. The innovative sliding leg design provides additional flexibility, enabling use on uneven surfaces such as stairs, curbs, or even elevated platforms like desks and countertops. This adaptability makes the C+ Stand an indispensable asset for any image maker's toolkit.Crafted with a chrome finish, the Matthews 40" C+ Stand not only ensures durability but also adds a professional aesthetic to any production environment. The included grip head and arm enhance its functionality, offering secure and adjustable support for various lighting equipment. With patents applied for and pending, this stand exemplifies Matthews' commitment to innovation and quality in the industry. Fast and easy to set up, the Matthews C+ Stand is the perfect choice for professionals seeking reliability and efficiency in their lighting support solutions.

It's a work horse. Solid and well constructed - it holds lights and softboxes with ease. I never see any bending or swaying. So happy I got it.

A total beast

Best ever!

I've dragged these stands across the country and hung a ton of different things on them. Lights, boom poles, flags, cameras, and monitors. They haven't sagged or lost their grip. Two years of almost daily use inspired me to buy more of them. There's a reason they're the standard.

Sturdy and Dependable.

I needed a C-stand to hold lights and other equipment with more versatility than a standard light stand. Since Matthews is a very reputable brand, I chose them for peace of mind when it comes to the safety of people on-set as well as equipment. Somewhat disappointingly, the black finish seems to crackle easily, although so far it hasn't posed any issues with my final images. It's worth noting that these are my first and only C-stands. As such, I am unable to compare them to other products and am unsure as to whether other black C-stands exhibit this same problem.

Overall, they fulfill their function well, and they feel nice and stable when properly weighted and balanced.

Stable and sturdy, except for the black coating

Love them. Strong, well made and just groovy!

Best C stands I’ve ever owned

looks great and works great! super lightweight but still sturdy compared to other c-stands.

Light but sturdy.

It works great, highly recommended!

I really like this c-stand by Matthews! I will buy one more as i love the fat handles and the versatility!

Matthews makes great C-Stands

Outstanding stand. Excellent stability and very durable. Fit and finish is excellent .

C stand

This thing is a tank. I went with Matthews because I know the reliability of their products and have seen these in action when they’ve clearly been through battle....and they still keep ticking. Anything can work and look nice when it’s new. These are built to last.

The Gold Standard

We got 6 of these stands for our high school digital photography classes and they are holding up well! These are heavy enough to support strobes with heavy light banks on them as well as seemless background paper back to back in order to have 2 sets running at the same time. Easy to use, easy to adjust. The black paint is holding up well although we haven't had to move or transport them a lot yet. The name Matthews is synonymous with being well and a classic traditional stand. Don't hesitate to buy these if you need some reliable, heavier stands! (The price has gone up significantly though since 1/2015 without the discount) :-(

Holding up well! Easy to use, nice finish

Best C stand, and it will last you a lifetime of use.

the best

These C Stands were exactly as advertised, delivered quick, and at competitive pricing.  What more can one ask for?  I will be a returning customer

Matthews 40" Hollywood C+ Stand with Tur

I actually bought this stand by mistake,  I wanted to buy the full size stand.  After unpacking it, I realized this stand easily will fit in a standard suitcase.  You can actually fit two or three even and be under the 50 pound weight limit.  Great if you do portraits in other states.

Great for Travel

This is the best purchase I've made in a long time. Being familiar with Matthews C-stands, I knew what to expect, but I still was wow'ed when I unpacked it. Good for low height, and adjustable leg (which is super easy to lock down). That leg is handy in small studio space or outdoors where the terrain is uneven. The only con is that Matthews is more expensive than Avenger which I've never used, ... maybe I'll try an Avenger next time. In any case, I know I can count on Matthews for being solid and durable.
