Frankenstein approves: the medium boom is great value and supports a lightweight setup
Some background about my use case... I do photography and a little bit of video when my department or recreational groups want to record something. I like to double-dip my electronics at every possible opportunity and have been using my Zoom H2n as my primary microphone for recording lectures, whereas previously I had been using it to record panels, bar mitzvahs, those kinds of things where it's important to have multiple high quality sound capture devices in a large room.Since upgrading to a desktop, I'm now prioritizing emplacement for my gear and a mic boom is one of the final touches.The frankengoods...The microphone is a Zoom H2n. The "microphone handle" is a 9.5 inch Camvate aluminum camera grip. The grip has holes for 1/4-20 and 3/8 screws. The bolts are some short 1/4-20s I got from the hardware store so the handle can't slip out of the microphone handle.Cobbling it together...At first I used the Camvate handle to screw directly onto the mic holder neck, but immediately found it annoying to have to unscrew the neck every time I needed to adjust my mic or tuck it behind my monitor. I recommend using the mic holder for the best range, mobility, and simplest procedure for detaching the audio capture device. For such a lightweight setup, the mic holder keeps it's position with total ease.I currently have the mic mounted upside-down, but will experiment with a rightside-up configuration. The foam windscreen is ideal for a Blue Yeti, but fits well on the H2n if the device is rightside-up. It slips off if upside-down. Don't think I'll use it, as the pop filter does well on its own.The pop filter mounts easily along the boom. The neck is quite long and I was able to reach the front of the audio device with no problems. Just be aware that it screws together, so be sure to abide by the mounting instructions and make sure that you don't attach it in a way that the weight of the filter will unscrew its own base.I find that the joint locks secure this load easily. I can raise, lower, and twist the setup as I need and everything holds it's position. It was easy enough to rubber band and twist tie my cables down the boom. Sure the boom is a little ugly with the springs but you can pay a premium elsewhere if you want luxe.My main complaint is that the table clamp could be better. My load is light but the clamp still tilts a bit in the direction of the weight when I have it tucked behind my monitor. I think this might qualify as a nit-pick, though. Not a deal-breaker, but if your build exceeds about three and a half pounds this is something to be aware of.I've seen a lot of negative reviews about folks trying to mount a Blue Yeti on this thing. I wouldn't even try anything bigger than a Yeti Snowball on the medium. This is for light loads only. For that it does a great job. I also wouldn't suggest trying to mount this boom horizontally unless you are ready to jerryrig a strong mounting mechanism. That's just not what this boom was made for.

Great quality, lots of accessories
I'm really happy with this InnoGear Mic Stand for Blue Yeti. It is perfect for my new Yeti GTX microphone (which came with the adapter screw needed to attach it). The Mic Stand comes with everything else though, including a two different pop filters - a sponge cover and a screen. It looks great too. What a surprise to get so many quality items at such a great price.

Great Budget Mic Arm
It's creaky, it's very much far from perfect -- but it just works. Have had this thing for almost 3 or 4 years now and it just keeps working no matter what I throw at it.It's not what I would describe as a "quality" mic arm, but for the price, I think this is the best you could get on a budget.

A good, sturdy mic stand
I was tired of leaning in to speak with my mic standing on my desk so I wanted to get a mic arm stand. I've had this for about 3-4 years now with no issue. I've not had any issues with the springs flying off or anything durability-wise. It's been a pretty good mic stand for me at a good price. I used the pop filer for my Blue Yeti but didn't see a difference, mainly because my settings on the Blue Yeti were poor and my house and room aren't soundproof. I did end up getting a different mic, a condenser, so I have no use for the filter now. I still am really glad I purchased this stand as I have more room on my desk and don't have to deal with leaning into my mic or having vibrations of my keyboard or my wrist/arms sliding across the desk picking up on my mic anymore.

Not the best....
So, as a mic stand, it does work. I can clamp it to a table and it will hold a position with my Blue Snowball attached. However, in the 5 years I've had it, the gooseneck pop filter has been anything but cooperative, with me having to either re-tighten or kind of gravity balance it. For a while I just used a sock instead as it was more reliable.The two plastic knobs on the arm itself have both failed, with one that has cracked and fallen off, and the other one has stripped so it can't grip the metal piece that actually tightens the joint. So I need a set of pliers handy when making any major adjustments.The only reason why I expect the third knob on the clamp (which restricts pivoting on the vertical axis) has lasted this long is because I opted not to fully tighten it which allows the stand to be swung out of the way on my desk - but this also means that if upwards force is applied to the arm the whole thing's going to fall out as it's held in by gravity.It can also hold a pair of headphones which is convenient (but not 2 pairs without sagging.)
