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, possibly because I have PB stands against which to compare and pass judgment. 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.

The tubing outside diameter of the PSR is 1 1/4" - Pit Bull is 1 1/2"

The tubing outside diameter of the PSR is 1 1/4" - Pit Bull is 1 1/2". Wheels are 3 3/4 Pit Bull and 2 3/4 PSR.

On the PSR, the cross bracing on the legs is not welded all the way around. And the welds that are there were not done very well.

As with most tools, you get what you pay for. Thee is no way a cheaper stand will work as well for as long as a Pit Bull.
