Review Summary

I've used several of these over the years and they have all been nice and sturdy and the hold up well. Add a sandbag on the base and you'll not have to worry about your flashes or strobes falling over. They are more than adequate for one or more speed lights as well as strobes (I've used with Photoflex Starflash 300s) plus modifiers.

the tubing is oversize, but it helps for the weight and the stability... I attached some medium size umbrellas (45") and they don't even move, even I tried to bump them and they are really steady! the best lightstands I ever got.

Having started with Photoflex stands about 10 years ago, when I needed more, I again chose Photoflex. The stands are simple, easy to set up, durable, and stand straight. I am very pleased with these stands. Good value.
