Excellent!!!
I have slowly replaced all of my Orff instrument stands with these through the years. They are very sturdy and hold my soprano xylophones, soprano metallophones, alto xylophones, and alto xylophones securely. They make the instruments easy to move, and they are so secure, I allow my 4th and 5th graders to move the instruments on their own. I highly recommend this product!
A keeper!
There are a couple of rolling xylophone rolling choices available. I have chosen Last Stand because their placement of the cross support makes the entire set-up extremely stable. In addition, the brackets that the xylophone sits in are high quality, and when sufficiently tightened, it is not possible for the instrument to fall off of the stand. Having seen and used others in our district, this is the only stand I would recommend. The design is far better balanced others on the market. No matter how a student pushes or pulls the instrument around the room, we have not had any issues. I have alto and bass xylophones on them and all of the students, K-4, are able to maneuver them safely.
Last Stand Deluxe Orff Instrument Stand
I have 4 of these stands. They really save me a lot of set up/ pack up time. And I find I use the instruments more in class because of the convenience. I like having my students stand up to play instead of kneeling on the floor. The stands/carts work well on smooth floors. These carts are not going to work bumping over sidewalks, transitions or thresholds. Some of the wheels are really smooth and quiet. Others are a little rough. Pay attention to the different sizes. Deep Bass Xylos and Metalophones will end up too high for smaller students unless you use the shorter carts and visa versa for the altos and sopranos. As soon as I can get some more donations, I will purchase a few more. I would recommend these especially considering the cost.
