    This boom arm is great. Theres just one problem. If your Microphone isnt heavy the boom arm will not be able to be correctly adjusted. I had to tape it down to the correct level. Still great quality and great organization.

    Fantastic purchase! I have had the cheaper boom arms previously, and this has well exceeded my expectations of a boom arm. It's very rigid and holds my Hyper X Quadcast S extremely well.

    Literally broke the night of return period ending... I dont know if i got a faullty one but all knuckles acted like they were supposed to except the middle one which no matter how tight you made it it would not hold its position for more than a few minutes. Over the 30 days it finally spun out and no longer tightens at all.. how frustrating... buy a Shure brand arm and save yourself the hassle.... I live over an hour from the nearest bestbuy.. so "making things work" is almost always the right choice.. not here...

    This boom arm is solid and performs well, ive tried most amazon boom arms and they would sag or not be able to support the weight of my yeti mic. This boom offers superior positioning and angle and allows for confortabke gaming seshes without having to constantly make adjustemts

    Worked for 6 months and began to get sloppy and kept falling over. I kept tightening it to get it to stay and eventually the bottom knob adjustment broke. Do yourself a favor and pick up the rode podcast mic boom. Works way better and no adjusting needed.

    Upgraded this from a cheaper Samson boom. Paired mine with a Logitech Blue Sona. Great quality overall. Easy to swivel but holds the weight of the mic just fine, no issues.

    Arm assembly is quite quick. Solid metal construction, and the wire clips are a nice plus. I dont have it at 5 stars because its VERY dependent of the weight of your mic to keep it steady.

    Great boom arm works well with yeti blue mic. The tension of the boom arm makes it drift at times and will need to retightened when needed otherwise it’s a nice clean design.

    Broke while setting up

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    It looks great, but I couldn't get one of the pivots to tighten to keep it from springing back, and it broke inside the mechanism as I was setting it up the arm. Didn't even get to plug in the microphone. Now im headed to Home Depot to make it able to tighten better than factory. The parts you twist to find tension are plasitc and can separate from the metal rod on the inside. Should be half the price of what it is but of course, you pay for "G" to be stickered on it

    Overall the arms seems very well made but unfortunately it only seems that way as the arms seem to have an extreme amount of tension and this is known issue on online forums. I have no idea whether some are affected and others aren't but mine was and overall led to me returning the product in preference for the elgato mic arm which has a lot more praise than this particular arm.

    Initially i didnt realize the mic has a piece that has fo be added on to make it connect to this stand. Logitech could have done better eith the guides. The piece should naturally come with the stand itself not the mic. Overall its very solid quality but still perhaps overpriced compared to the competiton.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    DO NOT BUT THIS PRODUCT! There is a known issue with these where the internal spring is too strong and is unable to adjust as advertised. Mine is so bad it's pretty much just a mic launcher and is completely useless unless you want a long straight mic stand. I waited to long to open and best buy won't let me return despite being defective.
