Bargain basement light weight stand - it works
In short - light weight duty sufficient for smaller lights. Very stable and with safety pins. They are quite lightly constructed, as you would expect, so not one for the road.
I ordered a couple of these to carry my two racks of Stairville CLB2.4s. Obviously the top tube of these (after removing the top bar) is not wide enough to give a stable mounting for the standard 35mm slot on the lights, so I adapted them slightly by fixing some of the correct sized tubing to the final stage of the stand to give a good fit - the weight is not a problem, as the CLB2.4s are much lighter than the maximum load these stands are rated for. Alternatively, of course, I could just fix the CLB2.4s' own bar to the bar supplied. It is likely that the lights will only be put on these stands rarely - if I was going to regularly use lighting stands I would have bought some heavier duty models with 35mm tubing.
In use they are perfectly acceptable - very stable with the lights I have and it is reassuring to have the locating pins and safety locks to prevent them telescoping back to a smaller height.
Happy with my purchase.

Practical - but dont depend on it
After looking at reviews on this, i decided to buy a few for a new lighting project.
They arrived beautifully packed - and after unboxing it felt really good and sturdy - although i was wrong.
after loading up 4 flat par cans, the stands had a tendency to lean to one side, and felt very off-balance. the security pins are barely the width of the support bar, so they are prone to be finicky and occasionally pop out.
Ended up buying trussing and tour grade stands, but they would be handy in a pinch - just dont put them anywhere they can be knocked, or near light wind

Light stand Fun Génération
The construction is good all metal, adjustment of the tripod according to the space available, the point that made me choose this model is that there are safety pins, on the other hand on the crossbar, I have no confidence in the two small welds that connect the piece of metal to the foot to hold the advertised 10 kg, that's why I take off 1 star, I drilled the crossbar to put a nut and bolt there. Despite this, it is a very good sturdy foot at a very attractive price. Just don't put too much weight or reinforce the crossbar attachment. I also weighted the foot with a small bag of sand (Decthatlon gym bag at 3.5 EUR)

Great product for home usage
I have purchased the product to use at my home alongside several fixtures - 2 small moving heads a laser and a strobe and it is suitable and stable. For the price one cant get anything of that quality.

You get what you pay for
Great stand for the price. I use it for my led pars and pair of led scanners. After a while it bent. As I said good stand for the price. I love this stand whatever the cons is, because of the price and stuff it's capable of.

Great product for home users
I have purchased the product to use at my home alongside several fixtures - 2 small moving heads a laser and some other gear. For the price you cant get anything of that quality. Overall I'm very happy with it but smole note: when using my moving heads on faster speed the stand is little wobbling but nothing to worry to much reduce the speed of heads is solving the problem, beside this all good.

Avoid: Failed and destroyed my equipment
Fitted a 1kg light on one side, fine.
Fitted a 5kg light on the other side, the weld on the T-bar immediately failed and dropped my £250 light on the ground destroying both the light and some of my laminate flooring.
