This is a great stand that has the capability to screw on more hercules pegs. These pegs allow the stand to carry 2 extra clarinets /flutes.

I am a percussionist and have been all my life. But I have also always loved the bassoon. It is the most beautiful instrument in the orchestra. Three months ago I began lessons on the bassoon. I am certain I have done things in my life that were more difficult; I just can't remember right off what they were. At any rate, one learns rather quickly that a stand is indispensable. After checking local and web vendors, I decided to purchase this stand, primarily for the cost. I found it is quite easy to spend considerably more for this item. It works well for my bassoon, however it is now holding my wife's bass clarinet at the community theater where we are currently presenting "Oliver". I recommend this stand for its security, ease of handling, and cost.Having had an opportunity to use the stand for awhile, I must revise my initial review. One day I found my instrument on the floor. It had fallen from the stand because the rubber underneath the cup which holds the base of the bassoon had cracked, causing the cup to collapse and allowing the bassoon to slip out of the cup and hit the floor. The instrument was not damaged. I contacted Hercules and was sent a new cup. That's all well and good, but I expect the same failure will recur. My ingenious father-in-law had a better solution; he crafted a replacement from a sink plunger. No mishaps since then.

This bassoon stand is pricey, but worth it. It feels very strong and durable. My bassoon feels very stable and secure on it. It folds up very compactly for transport. It is a bit heavy, which is good for holding the bassoon, but adds significant weight when you're traveling with it.

Sturdy. Not too heavy. I used for doubling bass clarinet and soprano clarinet.One thing that took me a little while to figure out is if i wanted to attach my clarinet peg, i needed to take out one of the squishy things on one of the stand's "legs"I also sometimes had to fight with this thing to collapse it, but after finagling with it, I have a trick to get it down. But I have not had any issues with it in the past 2 months.Also, the clarinet peg you can get with it is nice.

easy to assemble, easy to adjust. not bad price compared to what i’ve heard from other bassoonists and what they paid for their stands. works great in my room.

I can now feel confident when I leave my bassoon out after practicing, it will safe from falling. I probably wouldn't take it to rehearsals due to it's size but at home, it's perfect.

Very portable and sturdy when set up. Pretty light weight and easily goes over your shoulder. Make sure to purchase a carrying bag along with it.

Just the right size! I play a Low C Bass Clarinet and my old stand just wasn't tall or sturdy enough. It was perfect for my Alto Clarinet and I will still use it for that instrument. I highly recommend this stand! The K & M Stand is too heavy compared to the Hercules as well. If I could give it more stars I would!
