LOVE this for cross stitching with a Q Snap!!
I have been searching for a portable stand I could use with Q snaps for a long time. I finally found the perfect one!! It's lightweight, very portable, adjustable to any angle, and it rotates so you can flip your work over to end your stitches!! I was a little put off by the price, but now that I have it - well, it's worth every penny!! I move around from place to place, but the height is easily adjusted to whatever chair I find myself in. All in all, I really love it!!

An honest review
I bought this stand 4 years ago and have used it 3+ hours almost every single day (yes, I’m an avid needlepointer). About 3 years into use the height adjustment screw started cracking. It never fully broke, but because it was cracked the hold was weakened so every few days I had to loosen the - oddly - very tight screw fixture and raise it back up. The downward movement was imperceptible until I realized my hoop was almost touching my legs. Last week the plastic bit covering the metal bit holding the hoop clamp to the top of the stand cracked and a small piece fell off. I noticed my hoop was wobbling a bit and when I turned it around to look I saw the crack. My husband looked at both issues and tried to jerry-rig the height screw, but no joy. When he saw the latest plastic crack he said “buy another one.” So I did.I think 4 years of overall great functionality is totally worth $95! It’s a very stable stand, but very light weight. Hubby bought me an 8 inch lighted magnifying glass with a c-clamp that fits great on this stand. Even with the extra weight of the magnifying glass I never had a problem with the stability of the stand. The clamp that holds my needlepoint hoop has a metal tooth locking mechanism to adjust the angle of the hoop. And then the whole thing turns 360degrees for easy access to the back of my work. And the top of the stand that holds the hoop pivots side to side - possibly 360degrees, but I’ve never tried moving it that far…I love this stand, and as I said, I’ve gone ahead and bought a second one now that the first is slowly dying. It’s worth every penny!

Awesome stand and magnifying light! I love it!
I have this stand and the magnifying light attachment. Love it! Holds my Q-Snaps very well and swivels easily so I can get to the back of my work. It is very sturdy and slides right under my couch or chair in front of me, so I can pull it close to rest my back against the sofa or chair. It is also light enough to pick up and carry to another location. The Daylight light kit, that you can purchase separately, is excellent for seeing the true colors of your floss and fabric. I have all my needle minders and magnet ties attached to the frame, so those don't get lost, too! I had tried a wooden stand but it was too heavy and not sturdy. The design of this frame keeps it firmly on the ground with no wobbling at all. You can adjust the height up or down on the frame and the holder can also adjust the angle up or down. I am so happy I went with this even though it was a bit more expensive than some of the wooden stands. It was well worth it!

Love it
Easy to assemble. Sturdy but light. Easy to move around. Makes needle pointing easy since you don’t have to use both hands.

Great stand
I’ve had this stand for almost two months and I use it everyday. It works great with hoops, qsnaps, and scroll frames. I use it every single day and it did begin to squeak a bit. But I sprayed some WD40 on it and now it’s like new. Highly recommend!

Perfect stand
If you are into alot of embroidery or needle work this is the stand for you. I am 64 years old and it was getting hard to hold my hoop for very long at one time. I was having to take lots of breaks. But now I don't, the stand holds my hoop very well and stays put. I love it don't know how I ever did without it.

Make sure you get a NEW one!
I have been wanting this stand for quite some time, and finally was able to get it while I was visiting family. This is not a cheap item, and it is very well made, seems sturdy, and I would like to say I was able to use it right away. However, when I got it, the box looked as though it had been shipped/opened before, and this was even more apparent on the inside. It was very easy to put together, and once I had done that, I started playing with the adjustments to see how they worked. That is when I noticed several scratches on the top of the unit, and found that the Thumbscrew (#6 in the diagram), was extremely tight and the part which it controls was off-center and not responding to the Thumbscrew's action. So, obviously someone had used this before, and it looks like they took it completely apart at that juncture and couldn't get it back together properly and ended up forcing it in and jamming the Thumbscrew for the tilt adjustment. At any rate, I am very unhappy that I now have to get a replacement, which had darned well better be a brand-new one, and take the time and gas to take this one where I can send it back to Amazon.

Worth every penny!
This is the best cross stitch aid I’ve found. Bright light and great magnification have allowed me to continue with my cross stitch even as my eyes worsen. Love this stand, worth every penny.
