It's a nice little combo with the pop filter, but the tightening screws on the filter piece were never that tight and once it completely gave out after about a year of use, I would've have to have sent the whole thing back to Thomann (mic included) to fix a piece that could've been sent in an envelope, so that kinda sucked. The mic is really good, though. Haven't had any issues with it recording in my own flat, that doesn't have the greatest acoustics. I've used it for recording podcasts and music and it has worked like a dream on both. Highly recommend the mic, but I suggest finding the pop filter elsewhere.
