"Great product."
"My stand came with a dent near the top of the main tube, a rusty spot at the bottom of the tube, and oily fingerprints on the tripod legs."
"This is exactly the stand I was looking for to hold a second monitor for Karaoke. With the VGA cable adapters I previously purchased, a CAT5 cable, and an extension cord, I can place this monitor stand as far away from my gear as I want (even with a standard monitor cable this can still be positioned away from my stuff)."
"Using wireless controls and a long hdmi table, I set up this stand. near a chair to do work/control a home theater as secondary small screen. I had to remove all of the dell mount and with the screws that came with the monitor, the stand was able to hold it."
"It is heavier duty than my speaker stands and the legs when fully opened will stabilize the biggest monitor you reasonable would put on a VESA mount that size."
"The top plastic plug on the stand looked like it was hammered on the pole with a mallet, so malformed that I just had to pry it off and throw it away to make the mounting bracket slip over the pole."
"My only criticism is that the plate that you attach to the back of your tv/monitor is just a shade too large around the edges to fit into the recess in the back of my dell monitor."

Find Best Price at Amazon"I give this product 4/5 stars because our expectations were based on reality AND we knew Youtube existed BEFORE we purchased the system (shocker I know). Many unsuspecting people will feel they need to download the Singtrix application on their smart device, since the company who made the product will likely have the best quality of songs that naturally work with the system correct? Just type in Karaoke (insert name of song here) and you will likely get a half dozen options, from instrumental on piano, to many times the real song with no vocal, or vocals reduced. My families favorite are the VEVO Karaoke songs on Youtube. THE BAD: (Again, only Bad if your expectations were off). (1) If you are a bad singer, this system will only make you slightly better... don't expect to see results like the videos on YouTube where those actors could already sing. My daughter who sounds incredible live in front of 200 people with only her voice does sound great... but some effects can make her sound worse as well. Some people only are really upset that this system didn't make them sound like good .... and I understand the videos make it seem like anyone can become a great singer. Not sure why SELECT people are so upset with this online and recommending system that use specific karaoke songs you pay for and manage with specific file types. I literally heard the YouTube Karaoke version of Christina Perri's "Thousand Miles" at least 40 times today... so if you are getting this for kids, make sure you have a good set of earphones for those times when you can't take another round of "Let it Go" today. Don't let the negative consumers who wanted a full Karaoke system turn you off... because with an Smart Device you DO have a Karaoke system. Use YouTube Karaoke videos... they are great and offer more songs than you will ever use. You will have a great time with this unit... if you sing well, you will sound great."
"UPDATE March 10, 2015(original May 2014): I had written a positive review several months ago and wanted to post an update because since the airing of the Shark Tank episode, I was curious to see how this little company was doing b/c I'm a huge Shark fan and always wonder how certain people do after being on that show. As an aside to the "FUN" aspect of this product, I have a confession: I thought I was a pretty good singer prior to using Singtrix, but the pitch correct feature, while a bit insulting to my ego(ha! And having read another long 5 star review,(The Good, The Bad, The Ugly) I agree with the other reviewer in that it seems most of the people complaining seem to either believe they will sound JUST LIKE Beyonce or other musical artist or have not taken the time to really check out the product! In fact their PRESET GUIDE refers singers to effects (yes...online for customer review) which are "IN THE STYLE OF....."Also, no preloaded music with Singtrix and thank God. So happy we did buy and really--I can see other customers who took time to understand just what a great product they were getting (and understand how it operates) are equally as happy."
"I love it."
"This was the second one we ordered, this for our nieces."
"The party never stops when you turn on this machine it rocks for all the family and all ages who does not like to sing, bad or good you sound like a pro."
"Nothing but fun, fun, fun!"
"Im having a blast with the Singtrix."

"Amazing sound, lights, etc."
"This is really a good time, if your into Singing."
"Bought this for a 2.5 year old....loves it."
"This machine was a massive hit for my 8-year-old's birthday."
"After about an hour of play the power connection started to malfunction you had to wiggle it around for it to work, can’t say it’s worth that price though, regardless my 10 year old has lots of fun with it."
"Microphone doesn't work."
