      I play classical guitar at restaurants and special events and needed a lightweight, portable music stand. The Petersen Stand is perfect for me and I haven?t had any problems. Naturally, care should be taken when you?re setting it up and resist the urge to over-tighten some of the parts! If you need the stand to hold something the size and weight of a Fake Book every night, you may want to consider something heavier duty but for every other use?I strongly recommend it.

        Comments about Petersen Folding Music Stand:

        I bought this to take to dulcimer class and now use it at home. This is my second purchase. After several years, the tightening thing split. I think I just kept over tightening. The whole still works well at the low height for home use. I have bought a new one to take to a harp conference. Everything fits inside itself and is lightweight to carry.

            Lightweight and portable. Desktop conveniently folds up and forms the case for the stand and legs so that you don't have a carrying bag to lose or lay on the rehearsal room floor or stage. Definitely not a heavy duty stand, but very easy to carry and ride with on a motorcycle or scooter.

                  I would not recommend this stand to anyone! It is complicated to assemble to say the least and way over priced.Go with a basic folding stand. You can get a decent one on Musician's friend for under $20

                  By Vonriggs

                  from Detroit

                  Comments about Petersen Folding Music Stand:

                  I'm a gigging musician and I purchased this music stand specificly to use on outdoor festivals where the backline doesn't include music stands. Working my way from the parking lot to the stage through large crowds with a conventional music stand was clumsy, awkward and inevitably somebody got poked. Now, I just throw it in my backpack and the crowd is safe!
                  The portability is just what I was looking for.
                  Other reviewers have Dogged this product. If it were made of Titanium or Carbon Fiber it would cost substantially more.
                  I think it's a great value for the price!

                  Great concept, but not sturdy or reliable.
                  This stand is a piece of crap . I had it for 1 month and the piece you put the music on is now stuck at a 90 degree angle!! I can not close it or open it. Great idea to have one that breaks down to a small case, but if you do not know how to manufacture it for use, then stop ripping people off! Junk.

                  Wrote the company a year ago, still waiting for a part on back order. No way a company can go a year with no inventory.
                  Nice, but totally non-functional
                  Base fell apart after just a few uses.
                  Considering it is a throw away product, way overpriced

                  Not for frequent use

                  Comments about Petersen Folding Music Stand:

                  I am a guitar teacher. I needed a light weight music stand for 2-4 students per class with easy set up and compact storage. After using these stands for almost a year, the legs fall off, the folding case that holds the sheet music gets I regret having bought these music stands. When they are new, they work fine, but after repeated use they do not hold up.

                  Good idea - poor execution

                  By Corinne

                  from Rhode Island

                  Comments about Petersen Folding Music Stand:

                  Here is another vote for "brilliant idea, badly made" for the Peterson Folding Music Stand. I love the idea that all the stand parts close up into a compact little box. I like having a solid page support (as opposed to wires), and having it fold in half to make it fit in a gig bag is great. However, all the screws that allow this to happen are plasti-on-plastic, and they get stuck to the extent it requires tools to unstick them. The legs are cheap (one of mine broke the first time I put it together) and fall out when you pick the stand up. Also, the tripod spread of the legs can't be adjusted, which is a problem in tight spaces. I wish they would re-engineer this idea with better materials and design details.
