So I was looking around after being scared off by the price of that when I stumbled onto this product. It appeared to meet my needs and after receiving it and setting it up, I was correct. This stand sits to my left and easily brings the microphone directly where it needs to be, while not obstructing my line of site to my computer monitors. When it is not in use, it is very easy to move out of the way, or if I decide to leave it on my desk it is much better looking than the boom arm it is replacing.
After looking at this stand, it makes it even more perplexing as to why so many stands and boom arms are so unattractive. This thing looks and works great! And it is sold for a very reasonable price!
Pros:
- The weighted base is plenty heavy to hold it steady even when you have it extended all the way.
- The knobs are easy to turn, making it easy to adjust
- The pieces all feel very solid
- It has integrated cable management
One aspect that I particularly appreciate about this microphone stand is the inclusion of cord clips. They help keep my cables organized and prevent them from getting tangled, which is a great convenience.
However, I have noticed one minor downside. Since I have the stand placed on a wooden desk, over time I have noticed some black residue being left behind by the stand base. It's not a major issue, but it does require some cleaning to maintain the appearance of the desk. Overall, despite this minor drawback, the Gator Frameworks Short Weighted Base Microphone Stand is a reliable and well-designed product that fulfills its purpose effectively.
Thus I began, in earnest, to shop for a weighted base microphone stand that would be substantial enough to hold a Röde NT-1 condenser mic.
Most of the $15 - $20 desktop mic stands I viewed seemed flimsy or did not appear to be large enough to have confidence that they would not tip over. As I searched the Gator GFW-MIC-0822 kept appearing and I kept looking at it.
The specifications were what I was hoping for, the build quality seemed decent, and the reviews were exceptionally favorable.
What finally "sold" me was the option to make three monthly payments. So I ordered it.
I am so happy that I did! This thing is a monster! The base weighs 10 pounds and there is a 2.5 pound counter-weight that comes with the stand. My NT-1 is being held steady without fear.
The machining is good enough but not exceptional and all the pieces went together without complaint or issue. Three cable clips are included to assist with cable management and they appear to be of good quality, time will tell, but I am not overly concerned.
If you are looking for an alternative to clamp-on boom arm mic stands or are considering one of these right from the get-go, I would absolutely recommend it without hesitation.
This is the best microphone stand that I currently own and I will be considering Gator Frameworks for all stands in the future. They build sturdy, quality stands and you won't be disappointed when this arrives to your door.
It will be heavier than you think, and that is a great thing as far as I am concerned.

Ordered this stand, set it up and immediately I can tell this is a very well made, very versatile desktop mic stand. Of course it's a lot heavier than the cheaper stand I tried first, but it's still quite managable. This stand easily holds a lightweight shotgun mic, or a heavy studio condenser mic on a big shock mount.
This is a keeper.
This item has been used since purchasing and it has done its job well.
