Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
I love the air cushion. I bought it for my small studio. Built well for the price.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
This stand is very sturdy and gets very high ( I never need to extend it all the way). Strong and has a solid base. Will get one soon to adapt a boom arm for hair light.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
As indicated above, the metal iself does not seem to be of the strongest.
I have three of these. The top that holds the stud seems to be a little wobbly on one of them. Not sure I´d feel comfortable leaving a head and a beauty dish mounted overnight.
But all in all a good product, considering the price. Huge footprint and pretty stable.

I love this stand...I have two! I shoot on location only, so I need my light stands to be somewhat portable, yet sturdy. This stand is both. I use it with speedlights and umbrella or softbox.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
My first light stand and after thorough research, I decided on this one. I bought 2. They are sturdy. I would definitely buy more if I need them.

Good Studio stand. Tall extension and strength for the price however not a compact stand more suited for studio than a kit.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
I wanted to purchase a stand that would NOT fall over and would support my remote light with trigger and a 42" umbrella. My "cheapie" stand that I had COST me a $ 250 Radio Popper trigger and almost cost me a 580EXII Light too, when they both went into a creek ! So it was time to purchase something more stable and I am 110% satisfied with this stand and will be purchasing additional units. Extremely easy to use, Sturdy, WIDE BASE !!! I was actually suprised at the quality and how heavy duty it really is, also I can put my light up high for groups so I don't cast the nasty overlap shadows. You will be impressed with the stand for the mere price your paying.......... I know I was !

Using it for my Alien Bees 800 and very sturdy.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
NOTE: This stand is FORTY-seven inches long when fully collapsed - not thirty-seven as the description says. Max leg spread is 44 inches (tip to tip). The legs are tubular and approximately an inch in diameter. The base section is about 1.25 inch diameter. The leg/bottom brace attach points and column caps are plastic, with metal inserts for the locking screws. The leg braces are riveted to the legs and attach points. Don't expect it to stand up to abuse like a $200+ stand, but it's sturdy and worth the price. I'll have no hesitation using it with big brollies or a boom around clients. Expect to weight it outdoors and avoid over-tightening the locking screws and it should last a long time. I plan to buy more - and a longer carry bag.

Bought these to hold AB 800s and a huge light box . Holds both with ease. Big wide base, will still probably throw some weight on it for outside, but inside holds without a problem.

This light stand is well worth the money. It easily holds my large softbox.
Comments about Savage Savage 13' Four-Section Heavy Duty Air-Cushioned Light Stand, 4 Section with 3 Risers, Black:
I've been searching for a heavy duty stand for couple of months. I ordered a large softbox and everyone stated a heavy duty stand is a MUST. The prices for a heavy duty air cushion stand before i found this was around not cheap. I was surprise to see this at the price it was offered. Cheap price for a cheap product, right? Wrong. I was dead wrong. This is one sturdy and impressive stand. way better quality than I expect and performs flawlessly. I like this product so much Im gonna purchase 2 more. It's that impressive.

I use these for on site photo shoots and arround the studio. They are easy to set up and the Air feature makes it great to lower both sides of the back drop at once. Not to mention the extend more than high enough and are still sturdy at the max height.

Just received my second one of these stands. I do not use these every day, but they are very sturdy, easy to set up and I am sure will last me for years; but I take real good care of my equipment. I use them with Bees and boxes, if I were using them every day, I might buy heavier ones. But they are tough! And fit my needs!!!
