Andrew ★★★★★

Finally, I can angle my softbox away from the stand column without it bumping into the pole—the extra reach makes positioning way less fiddly. It's solidly built and does exactly what it says, just takes a moment to get the tilt lock snug.

Brian W. ★★★★★

Putting my softbox on this short offset arm gave me way more control over the light angle without having to move the whole stand. The build feels solid and the locking knob is easy to tighten by hand.

Jason ★★★★★

The offset arm finally lets me angle my softbox away from the stand column without fighting the clamp, and the 8-inch length is just right for clearing the pole. It’s a small tool but it’s made positioning feel way more precise.
