Laboratory Retort Support Stand - XMWangzi

I make coffee using pour over method and my cups and thermos's can be a variety of sizes. This solve that problem. I use kitchen galley hooks with it to just keep all my coffee related stuff hanging from it, ready to go. I wasn't sure it would be right when purchasing. But glad I did. It's quality and suits the purpose exactly. I know I sound like a sales person. Sorry. But this is truly a surprisingly good choice for my need.

I needed a longer support for the inexpensive digital microscope I recently purchased and this unit works great. Good price, easy assembly, and quite solid. While the box was crushed when the delivery person put it in front of a garage door, instead of the front door where it was supposed to be, the unit survived and is perfect for what I wanted. Highly recommended.

It works as intended

It works….. DrD

This may not be what you would buy for a professional lab, but it will be great for doing experiments with my grandson now, and my granddaughter in 2 - 3 years. The rings are circular (not oval, per another review, but perhaps the feedback was heard) and I don't see any flaws. Nice chrome-like plated finish, black painted base. I'm pretty sure it will handle the weight of any experiments the kids and I perform.

Just as described. Nicely packaged!

Lab stand is fairly sturdy and includes a wrench to help tighten it properly. However, it is pretty awful for a laboratory environment where it can come into contact with organic solvents. Acetone and DCM seem to wipe off the black layer off the metal base. This creates a sticky residue which can get stuck on the bottom of tubes and flasks. I will probably wrap the base in aluminum foil to help prevent this from happening. I am giving it 3 stars because the clamps and ring stands that come with it are nice, but do not buy if you intend to use in a laboratory.

This is heavy enough to do the job I bought it for. Works well.

A little wobbly but ok
