Considering the price of these stands, you'd expect them to be relatively sturdy, not super strong, but enough to support the base stations they're advertised to work with. They are not. A slight breeze makes them wobble a tremendous amount, to the point where with my HTC Vive base stations, they lose sync with one another, jolting you to a grey screen and breaking the immersion. Hyperkin needs to go back to the drawing board and redesign these, maybe by not skimping out on the quality of the materials.

Hyperkin needs to go back to the drawing board and redesign these, maybe by not skimping out on the quality of the materials. I have been using these stands since I got my Vive at the end of April, and the whole time I have not felt comfortable every time I have put the $200 Vive base stations on the stands in fear that a slight breeze will knock the stand over and break one of the base stations. You are 100% better off getting some lighting stands or something else.

Pros: I guess it's better then like stacking a chair on a desk and putting the base stations on that (mind you when I tried that there was less chance of it falling off to be honest)
Cons: Build quality is absolute garbage, does not feel like you're getting your money's worth.

very poor quality poduct, threads stripped, Dont recomend considering the price!!! very poor quality poduct, threads stripped, Dont recomend considering the price!!!

I bought these with my Vive at the Black Friday Sale in November 2018 but I haven't needed to use them until now (April 2019). I opened the box and was not impressed to find that the tops were fixed and the base stations couldn't be angled down as they should be. I checked reviews to see how others reacted to this and saw a review pointing out the ball mounts that are supposed to come in a separate bag in the box. Mine did not have them in the box!

I took them back to PB Tech, hoping to receive the good service that I've heard so much about, but got a cold shoulder instead. If you don't take something back within the 14 days, then you're assumed to be dishonest and they wont do anything. So make sure you check the contents of the box before it's too late!

The Hyperkin VR Tripod Stands for my HTC Vive base Station have been great. The Vive originally only comes with two wall mounts, which means you need to put a hole in the wall, which I was reluctant to do. They are very easy to set up and I would recommend them to anyone who takes their vive around to different places as they are portable, don't take up much space. At first, I was confused why the base station was not able to tilt, but I realised I had forgotten to attach the extra part on top which comes in a separate bag inside the box. They are a bit expensive, so it's not the best choice if you're on a budget. I would suggest getting a...view more The Hyperkin VR Tripod Stands for my HTC Vive base Station have been great.

They are a bit expensive, so it's not the best choice if you're on a budget. I would suggest getting a clamp mount or just wall mounting it if you didn't have the money. However, since you have spent so much on your Vive already, I think it's worth getting the extra tripod stands. One con I do have is that I only set up one stand to trail it, which was working fine, however when I moved my setup, I tried to set up the other one and found out that a vital part of it was broken, so I can only use one now. I don't know if the break happened when I got it or when I was transporting it, however, I did take great care in transporting it and the damage was quite severe. I don't think I can ask for a refund now since I can't prove I didn't do it as I have had it for a while. It's really my own fault since I should have checked everything over as soon as I got it and then I would have been able to return it.

Works beautifully with the sensors for my HTC Vive Pro, easy to adjust the height, no need to screw into the walls, plus, it makes them super portable and I can change the location of my Vive between rooms depending on which system I'm wanting to hook it up to.

Lightweight but sturdy tripods that are perfect for a Vive or Oculus setup. These can go up to 2.3m or so high which is more than high enough for any VR setup.
You get 2 tripods in the pack and they come with a swivel mount each, so that you can adjust the Vive base station angles to suit your needs.

Definitely a good alternative to my setup.
Great purchase and really happy so far. Lightweight but sturdy tripods that are perfect for a Vive or Oculus setup. These can go up to 2.3m or so high which is more than high enough for any VR setup.

Nice and simple design, easy to set up and move around.
Ideal if you cant mount vr lighthouses on walls or if you have limited space. Highly recommend for all VR users. Nice and simple design, easy to set up and move around.

Initially I couldn't get it to tilt the base stations downward, and then I realised there are two screw mounts on VIVE base stations and I was using the wrong ones. Doh.

But, yeah, they work perfectly. Sturdy enough, don't appear cheap and nasty, work perfectly. Initially I couldn't get it to tilt the base stations downward, and then I realised there are two screw mounts on VIVE base stations and I was using the wrong ones. Doh.

Reaches a higher height than what is listed, so if you need it higher, you're set.
Not as sturdy at the height that exceeds what's listed, but thats fair considering it's 'not supposed to be that high'. Reaches a higher height than what is listed, so if you need it higher, you're set.

So I was initially a bit skeptical about this purchase, having seen some of the negative reviews. However, I can honestly say this purchase was well worth it. The stands came with adapters to allow angled positioning of the sensors which appeared to be a problem for other customers in the past. The stands are sturdy enough, but by no means rigid or of exceptional build quality - what you pay for i guess! I have found the best way to combat this is to ensure each section isn't extended to its fullest. Overall I would recommend these to anyone who doesn't fancy drilling holes in their walls for brackets to be installed.

I read a few reviews saying these aren't as sturdy but I bought them anyway. I would say they are good quality and sturdy enough for my application. If placed in the corners of a room they should anyway not come in contact with anyone or anything for that matter. Pretty happy considering this means I don't have to drill holes into the walls for the time being. I read a few reviews saying these aren't as sturdy but I bought them anyway.

I haven’t had a chance to use these yet but I have inspected them and they look great. Will save me having to drill holes in the wall and they can be adjusted to ceiling height so should be great for tracking movements.
