I love mine but a few notes on the stand...

It is reasonably stable and the mechanism works well as long as you keep it clean... it is very prone to collecting dirt which can make things a little sticky.

Setting it up so you can use it as a roadside stand is great but getting things right might take a few adjustments.

It is an expensive stand.

I got mine for free as a local shop was tossing them out and some friends retrieved 10 of them from their dumpster.

I would have paid money for it though.
