Ok at best.
Mark from Baltimore, MD on 10/24/2022
If I didn't have rewards money I would not have bought these stands. Not worth full price. They are sturdy on hard surfaces. But on plush carpet they are not. The weight under the base hits the carpet before the slightly curved legs. I had to shove the base under my sofa to keep them from wanting to tilt and eventually tip over. Mounting for the speakers are ok, but I've seen better. Height adjustment is wonky at best. If you run the wires from the top, I found it very easy. Although I had to remove a metal burr from one tube. Running wire from bottom is impossible. Still not sure if I will be keeping these or returning.
Pros: Ok for hard surfaces.
Cons: Obviously not tested on carpet. Fairly cheap construction.

Good fit with Paradigm
Crutchfield customer from Moorhead, MN on 12/30/2021
I'm using the stands with a pair of Paradigm Cinema 100 surround speakers. With the supplied bolts and nuts, the fit was easy with Paradigm's slide on mounting bracket. I have them standing on a pair of Polk Audio's smallest tower speakers. They serve as my front height channels. I didn't wire through the stands as I use 14 gauge Monster cable. I was pleased that the stands have a heavy metal weight under the base for stability. They do use a bit of plastic for the mounting cover.
Pros: Solid and versatile
Cons:

They do the job, but avoid using speaker heavier than 5lbs, or cables bigger than 16 gauge.

Pretty sturdy...some messed up paint on one. Not quite noticeable enough for me to go through the hassle of a return though.

Light yet sturdy
Crutchfield customer from Tampa, FL on 12/26/2020
Light yet sturdy stands that hold my older 6 pound Jamo rear speakers. Easy set up and love being able to hide the wire. Very pleased.

Just okay
Crutchfield customer from Batavia, IL on 6/25/2020
I was a little disappointed with these stands due to so-so quality of material. The "universal" mounting bracket and hardware does not for Martin Logan 2i or Deftech 800 satelites so I had to improvise.
Pros: Holds speaker
Cons: So-so material hardware does not work for all speakers

Crutchfield customer from Las Vegas, NV on 5/26/2020
Definitely not a bad set of stands at this price point. However they're definitely not easy to fish your speaker wire through. I also wish the mounting options were a little more secure for the speakers themselves once installed.
Pros: Cost Looks Size
Cons: Adjustment ring feels cheap Hard to route wire through (even with a fish tape) Hard to get to sit perfectly straight upright on carpeted flooring.

Crutchfield customer from Aurora, IL on 3/1/2020
Pretty easy to assembly. Nicely adjustable but it'd be nice if they went higher. Also the tubing diameter is too small, it was a pain to thread standard 16 gauge speaker wire through them, apparently these were designed for some thinner wire with thinner insulation.
Pros: Easily assembled.
Cons: Can be tricky to thread the speaker wire up the tube.

Crutchfield customer from Brevard, NC on 5/26/2019
I looked at several stands and this was by far the best value, IMO. Sturdy enough to handle the larger Mirage satellite speakers I have. There's a round weight under the base that the lower tubing screws into. It sure if that was depicted in the description. But it helps offset the speaker weight at the top. Good design overall!
