 Not perfect but usable October 25, 2006
Like another reviewer, I'm surprised that this stand has had such negative comments. Sure, it's not perfect by any means, but it's more attractive than most other metallic-looking and bland-looking stands out there. There's not a lot of shelf space to put music sheets on but then my daughter is just a budding violinist, so it is serving its function very well for now. As mentioned, it is reddish-brown, and does blend with the rest of our music room's color scheme. You have to take that into account, if it's important to you.
 I'm buying my second stand now... January 28, 2006

I came to Amazon just now to purchase a second music stand of this type, and was surprised to find the unfavorable reviews left by other Amazon users. We have had our first stand for more than a year now and it has worked perfectly since we first assembled it. The color of the wood stain is quite red, but we're actually rather fond of that, too. My mate wishes that her cello (also made in China) were such a lively color!
My mate and I are both adult beginners (she of cello, and me of recorder) and this stand is just what we need. It is affordable, functional, and attractive. It fits in nicely with the woodwork in our cozy, old Craftsman home.
Your experience may differ, but we have been completely satisfied with this music stand. And the price simply cannot be beat. Thirty dollars for a wooden music stand?

Well, it's red, not a very realistic mahogany...a color I can almost work with.
The music shelf doesn't appear to work (can't tilt the shelf to an angle that will keep the music where you want it). But my husband, for which this is a gift, may be able to fix that with a washer.
But if he can't, we're sending it back. You're getting what you pay for, essentially, but it has to at least function.
Followup: My husband did fix it. We really like the wide music stand and lip that holds everything from pencils to harmonicas. It's much more attractive than the old metal stands we used to have in our music room. Hey, for 30 bucks, it's great!
 stay away from this! July 3, 2005

This music stand is a piece of garbage. The connecting faceplate splintered as I put it together. Although I repaired it using wood glue, the music holder does not hold the position it is tilted to and tumbles your music to the floor. STAY FROM THIS PRODUCT!!!
