Upon receiving the package, I noticed that the box had some weight to it, but the packing was top-notch. The use of particle board for construction gives it a robust feel, and the thickness adds to its strength. One aspect that impressed me was that all the hardware is made of metal, allowing for a sturdy assembly by bolting metal to metal. Assembling it was a breeze, and I didn't even need to refer to the instructions.The keyboard securely fits into the stand thanks to strong metal brackets and four bolts, providing an exceptionally stable setup. What I appreciate most is how the stand's design allows the keyboard to align perfectly without any extra width or length, maintaining a sleek and compact appearance. Its height is precisely measured, resulting in a perfect elevation of 29 inches from the floor to the top of the keys, creating an ideal playing position.Compared to other portable keyboard stands, this Yamaha stand stands out as one of the strongest and most aesthetically pleasing ones I've encountered. It gives my keyboard a simple piano-like appearance while saving valuable space. Considering its excellent features and solid build, the $99 price tag makes it an absolute steal.
