Definitely not universal
I'm not going to say this is a bad stand. If you however have a "normal" thickness bass or guitar (4 ish cm) I'd say: steer clear of this one!
I have 2 basses (Ibanez SR300e and a ESP LTD F-105) and both hit the floor when I put them in the stand in a normal "I'm putting this bass down" kinda way. It's only when I really put it on the little lip all the way in the back of the stand that they stand in a decent way. And that way there's 10cm of space being wasted by the two prongs sticking out. Put your guitar further forward and they lean back awkwardly and hit the floor with the stap holders or in case of the F-105 with the pointy bit at the bottom of the guitar.
Having your guitar standing up straight is definitely preferred over leaning backwards but because the "prongs" are so far away from the body if someone was to bump into your guitar, or like a cat would stand against it, it could easily cause your guitar to fall (either out of the stand or "down one step" making the bottom of your guitar hit the floor).
For thicker guitars and hollow bodies this stand might be a lot better because you can actually benefit from the long prongs. The stability of the stand itself (not your guitar in it) is excellent. The build quality seems decent enough. Not overbuild but also not flimsy.

Very tidy, collapsible, stable stand!
This thing is great when you are stuck for space! It collapses to almost nothing. It fits in everywhere, its very stable with the guitar on it.
Only problems are that the foam padding is starting to come away a bit already. That and because it is such a light stand it tends to move as you take the guitar up from it, it can get messy on-stage with your jack getting tangled underneath the leg as you lift.
All in all very good stand if you are stuck for space. But if you are gigging often and don't mind something a little heavier, get something heavier.

Good choise for any type of guitar
I tried it with my electric and acoustic guitar as well as with my Harley Benton base and it is very stable and adjustable.
Very easy to handle and to fit in a bag in case you want to move (jam with friends or gigs).
Very satisfied with the quality also.

I am very happy with this product.

Best light stand of all
Very lightweight and stable stand. Not most compact of all (hercules stands are bit more compact) but most light of all stable stands.

Good stand
The foam is alright for me, but the stand could be a bit more stable. While I have the guitar on it, it's mostly ok, but after picking up, and placing it down again, the stand's leg can move a bit, eventually trying to close them. I have a cheap stand also, and this is way better than that tough, the guitar stands very stable in it, so all together it's a good stand for home, for the price.

Very good stable stand
This stand looks really reliable, it's stable with soft foam and can be used by an electric bass, electric guitar or an acoustic guitar which is great. It's lightweight and packs easily in a small backpack and it's great for taking it on stage if you have to change between instruments.
