Is hard not to be impressed
I decided for this item, even there were no reviews about it. I just liked the clean design and price seem to be right.
In short: it's heavier than I though and feels extremely solid. No wonder, because arms are made of 30mm metal pipe! Bottom and middle knee have some quite strong spring built inside, which prevents the upper part (microphone) to just fall down while adjusting the position. Actually, quite some force is needed to move microphone downward.
Also worth to mention in case you don't plan to use it all the time: the stand wont's stay in folded position, because the spring is just too strong.
All in all, I'm happy with it. It looks really nice and does the job.

Performs above price
I use this mainly locked with a SE Electronics X1S and the Roadworx MSM 2000 shockmount.
Its a bit too snug around the knobs to get a good grip and they feel a bit on the low-end. And you can not lock the bottom swivel (I have not had any problems with unwanted movement though).
For the price I was expecting way less.
After tinkering with the screw inside the mount at the bottom I got the spring to cooperate, it holds the weight while locked and adjusts easily. Nice cabling with the duct on the back. The clamp means business and feels very sturdy.
Very pleased.

Surprisingly good microphone arm for the price
This was good update for my old cheap microphone arm. Arm also contains adapter for 5/8" microphones, so you don't need to buy separate adapter for it like I did. Only negative is that the arm has a small creak when adjusting, but it is significantly less than the old arm used to have. Overall very sturdy

Solid construction, a bit stiff
Needed a cleaner setup for my NT1-A, it does the job really well. I can set it in any position and it wont fall. Only issue is that the arm, although very stable, is a bit stiff to maneuver, other than that its a perfect addition to the studio. plus the ability to hide cables.

Great first impression, lasted a couple months.
I got this arm for my Rode Podmic, a bit of a heavier mic but still within the spec of the arm. I barely change the vices on it because i just keep it on my desk and pivot it away when its not being used. Today when adjusting the hinge that holds the mic, it will not tighten at all, and now my mic permanently dangles and swings on the hinge. A similar thing has happened to a much lesser extent on the middle hinge a couple weeks ago. Get what I pay for i guess.

Stability degrades over time. Otherwise very good arm.

Might be the sturdiest thing in my household.
Didn’t think much when ordering an arm so just got the one I liked visually on a picture. I didn’t expect the tubes to be that thick and thought of it more like of the ikea lamp style thing.
Mounted it on my desktop and it gives me a ton of confidence in my setup. I don’t know what possibly can break it. I wish Millenium could build a pair of knees for me

Fell apart suddenly
The arm worked fine until one night it fell apart (when nothing was mounted to it!). It has a beefy spring inside, and a 1.5 mm thin steel cable attached to the spring on both ends, giving the arm its strength. One of the eyelets on the cable snapped off, because it had a defect in it from the factory (it was badly attached to the cable and cracked).

A nice desk arm
It is very flexible and stable. It's easy to configure almost in anyway you can think.
The internal cable routing also gives a very clean aesthetic
