Crank Adjustable Desk Reviews

I have a Shure 55SH and it is not known for being a very sensitive microphone. It looks great on my desk but was not getting used much since I had to crank the mixer gain up adding a lot of noise. I have the Mackie Big Knob studio (love it!) and it has 48 volts out (phantom power) so it was easy to plug it in the back inline with the XLR mic cable. So now I have a lot more volume and a lot less noise.

This thing looks well made, operates silently, and stays put. The desk clamp, which was the main thing I was concerned about, seems very stable if you really crank it down (use something to protect your desk though - I'm using a small piece of cardboard). Haven't used it for very long though.

The desk is beautiful and very well made. The crank mechanism works beautifully. My husband assembled it, and I didn't hear any complaints, so it must have been pretty straightforward. This desk makes working at a computer all day much more tolerable! I am extremely pleased with my purchase and would highly recommend this desk.

Easy to put together, very heavy duty. Adjusting the desk up and down is no problem, simply crank the handle which takes almost no effort. One small problem was that my desk was missing an end cap for the metal brace. Not the end of the world but it does make the desk not 100% perfect, but still love the construction and will recommend.

First off, contrary to some of the other reviews and answers, nearly everything on this tripod is metal, except for the obvious places like end caps and bearings that are either rubber or plastic, as they should be. I bought the Tiltall because I was fed up with the poor build quality on the various tripods that I own, some of them Sliks. Even though they are highly recommended, I still had plastic parts snap off and become worn out with little use. And don't get me started on the quick connects that are more trouble than their worth, not to mention they make the tripod unusable if you lose them. Sure the Tiltall is heavier, but I'd rather deal with that than a broken piece that forces work arounds. Every piece is precision made and moves smoothly, locking down with minimal force. One piece that persistently breaks on competitor's models is the crank handle for the vertical adjustment. There is no crank on the Tiltall, the Z axis adjustment is accomplished by pulling or pushing instead, which works just fine for me since the lock downs can be tightened or loosened just enough to temporarily hold while you find the right position when you can then tighten it more securely. A feature this tripod has that my Sliks don't are spikes that can be extruded from the bottom of the legs by twisting a ring there. This is great if you're on slippery, uneven ground; the spikes dig in perfectly. The carrying case that comes with it protects it snugly and has a shoulder strap that makes it easier to transport off site. It even has pockets for the odd bit of gear. Overall, this is a tripod that is built to last a lifetime and then some. I just wish I could have bought it earlier instead of wasting my money on tripods that are cheaper, and that are touted in other reviews.
