The EZ Angle Roller has a special rubber grip that holds the desk at the perfect angle while also being instantly adjustable. Push the Quik-N-Easy Retainer up or down for instant desk mounting or dismounting onto a stand. Also features a Quik-N-EZ Height Adjustment Grip, which makes one-handed adjustments a breeze with an internal locking mechanism to prevent slipping. Simply grab the EZ grip and adjust the stand up or down. The base can be angled 90°-75° for comfortable positioning. The Swivel Legs fit around other equipment, perfect for crowded stages. To pack away, simply pull up the locking ring to release.

Comments about HERCULES BS411B Orchestra Stand w/ EZ Angle Roller & Height Adjustment:
Great design but needs improvements to make it as steady as the conventional model.
1. Tube tolerances need to be exact or there needs to be a way to tighten the shaft one it's adjusted to the desired height.
2. The desk needs more than just a cap screw to tighten the desk angle clutch. There are several designs used on other boom stands etc. that could work.
3. The quick release mechanism at the bottom of the stand needs to be manufactured with closer tolerances.
