First impressions of the PSR were that it seemed to be of OK quality. The stand ships disassembled, and online reviews were very clear that the stand should be bolted together TIGHT or the arms would shift under load. Upon assembling it, I was disappointed at the fit and really not impressed. It might be because I have my PB stands against which to compare and pass judgment, but my overall impression is that I'm glad I got my Pit Bulls. And if both had been in the store at the time I bought mine, I would still have made the same decision. | First impressions of the PSR were that it seemed to be of OK quality.

Since the holes in the PSR don't match up, the two parts of the frame that are supposed to fit together and support each other don't, and all the weight is on the bolts. | |||
