I never imagined this stand because of the price and also simply because it is chosen Crane. The other crane stands have been too expensive and or terms of quality too low, so I have a thing between worried and I must say I am completely satisfied. The quality as that of the expensive Crane article. Perhaps this stand is slightly heavier than the expensive, after all, is another material, but I have to say that that weight is not noticeable in a full bag. All in all I can recommend this stand each does not want to have on the table next to the drinks his laptop. Moreover, this stand for the people something budget-oriented work and pay attention to the quality.
