Yamaha PKBS1 Single Braced Adjustable X-Style Keyboard Stand

It is very sturdy, easy to use and folds for storage or transport. The legs scissor, so the height can be adjusted for basically any type of seating you use - we have used it from kitchen chair to bar stool height. When not in use, you can collapse the legs together for easier storage, the width is about 4" when closed.

The only downside to the product, and I am not sure it is a problem with the product or with keyboards, is that there is no mechanism to firmly attach the keyboard to the stand. The keyboard just sits on top of the stand, and can easily be bumped off. I am sure that a way to attach the keyboard could be found, however I would not recommend this stand to a household with small children or for a household where the keyboard will be placed in a high traffic area.

Yamaha did a fine job on this stand. It's a little bit different than the one pictured in that the upper part of the stand has little extensions to hold the keyboard in place.

This is a good quality stand. For me, it's much better than the one it replaces. I would recommend it.

I have reservations about the mental stability of the individual who left a one star review for this product.


It does what it is intended to do.   February 26, 2007

This is Yamaha's lowest-end portable keyboard stand. It's made for casual use, and to be light and PORTABLE. Light, portable and folding usually does not translate to sturdy, unless you add EXPENSIVE to the equation. This stand is fine for a lightweight keyboard. It works wonderfully well with my ez30. I would not, however, put my PSR285 on it 'cause that weighs a ton. It is what it is, as they say.


Stand good value.   October 2, 2005

This Keyboard stand is very heavy duty and will most likely last forever it is convenient and con fit any keyboard I bet.

Whether standing or sitting, for a person who is 5 ft, 10 in tall, this is a good keyboard stand. I am very satisfied with this item.
