Find Best Price at Amazon"- Sitting on the desk, the microphone on the tripod is a pretty good height - you don't need to lean down too much to speak into it although you may need to prop it up by placing the stand on some books or something to get it to exactly the right height for you so that you don't have to lean down into it at all. * Plugging it into computer: When you plug it in, there is no indicator or light on the microphone to show you if it's plugged in properly - I think having that indicator would have been useful because at first I wasn't sure if it was working. Next I used Audacity to record the sound. But with a +10dB post-edit, I thought that it's not a bad sound especially for a microphone at this price range. Because it mostly picks up sounds very close to the mic, it doesn't seem to be sensitive to background noises as far as I can tell."
"PROS: + Simple to set up and use (Windows) -- it wasn't plug 'n play for me; I had to tweak some of my audio settings. + Does a respectable job at noise cancellation -- though don't expect it to weed out a riding lawnmower outside your window or anything. + The angle of the mic can be adjusted while in its tripod (see Cons). + Doesn't require batteries or other external power source. + Better sound quality than I expected for the price point (see Cons). NEUTRALS: * This thing feels like a toy -- this could be good or bad depending on whether you're looking for something very lightweight (which this is) or need a bit more heft with your microphone. CONS: - Recordings tend to have a tinny hollow quality, especially in the higher range. - Tripod legs aren't adjustable. - Forget about recording anything at more than a couple feet away. Notes: This isn't a USB microphone--it requires a dedicated 3.5mm microphone jack (or a splitter if your device combines mic/audio); for this microphone, the sweet spot is around 6 inches from the audio source. Disclosure: Sample provided for review purposes."
"Stand is stable, but legs have only 2 positions together or separate, so you cannot adjust height of stand (you can adjust position of mic itself)."
"I found this item to be very practical and useful, no installtion experience required just plug it in and you are good to go."
"The mike stand is great. All in all this microphone does exactly what I wanted it for at a price that is half of what I expected to pay."

"Overall seems to be a quality build, I haven't had much time to test but it's definetly sturdy."
"I had to do a bit of post audio editing to remove the small noise, although the quality out of the box is great, and it's not fully necessary to do some post editing."
"Good quality voice pickup."
"High school choral/orchestral teacher approved!"
"I use it, it works great -- what else would you like to know?"

"If you ever tried to stream through a Windows pc you will notice a delay between your live voice and what goes through the mic. There is no delay when you plug your headphones directly into the mic."
"I was able to pick one up on a lightning deal for $89 and it's well worth that price, however, I've had a few problems with it from day one that have since been rectified. Number one, I had to ship the first one back because one of the screws that holds the microphone into place was stripped out. Finally we can talk about the good and what should matter most when you are purchasing an expensive USB microphone and that is the sound quality -- it's excellent. If you are streaming a podcast or recording scratch audio for video production like I use it for, this microphone is really great."
"You can Google strategies for minimizing the surrounding hiss / hum interference... once you get all the outside sounds minimized, this mic is amazing!!"
"It will pick up outdoor noise from A/C compressors and lawn mowers a block away, so use a good mic shield or sound box."
"It records sound so accurately and is flexible enough with its various settings to adapt to different recording situations (e.g. solo, group, interview, acoustic, big room, small room, etc.). While I don't notice a huge difference in the recording sound quality during playback, I do see it when I start editing and mixing the audio."
"My son loves it!"

"My son loves it!"
"The microphone the one who received this had, was in fine working order and it was good sound quality, but I wanted to gift it for an upgrade."
"One minor gripe is that I wish that it used a USB type A connection or a USB micro like most cell phones. It is powered through the USB cable (which is great) but the oddball boxy USB mini jack is hard to find."
"The drivers uploaded onto my computer automatically (was running windows 7). The weight made it feel really solid, I wasn't handling a chintzy piece of plastic, it was actual metal (aluminum, I think). I would highly recommend this to anyone trying to get into filming or basic voice work."
