Did someone beat someone to the patent office? Personally i think it looks really unstable, simple physics. But i guess they would make it if it was junk.

I have one of the Ultimate stands here, which they make for Roland and I think it's OK. I don't like putting heavy 88 key keyboards on it because I think it still has some sway at the bottom when you try to push the keyboard a bit from left to right. I told this to Ultimate and I can see how it could be improved. With lighter keyboards on it, I don't notice as much "movement". George Kaye

I have a V Stand for my G-70 (on loan) Have also put an RD700SX and an XV-88 on it. (Both 88 keys) Besides a tiny bit of "waggle" when I really pound hard. This is the most stable stand I have ever used. And it's sexy to boot!
As far as the accident waiting to happen, Even with one leg actually moved to the folded position, the V stand didn't want to tip with any of my boards on it.
Seems rock solid to me. Best part is folding it up only takes about 10 seconds and the gig bag I got for it keeps it looking pristine,

Still Loving My G-70

Here is one stand that is absolutely solid. No giggle. Well, unless you're walking across the keyboard, but then, hey.......
