I like how it raises up and down, but not sure how long it will hold a position as the design is very flawed... you turn knobs that basically hold tight a round metal rod inside a square rod, so it doesn't feel snug. The rod that raises up and down should have been square; then maybe it would hold better. I also use the VERY FEW hook/holds to keep the cord out of the way, but they always work loose. Still, I use this to keep the lamp over the cage to make it easier to feed our gecko crickets. With a lamp, it only raises the temp 3-4 degrees and mostly heats up my son's room, but we're using it with a heat emitter so might be the difference. This and a silver lamp might work best with this and project more heat into the cage. Not sure it's the best for a heat emitter.

Screws do not fit into drill holes so you cannot tighten down the top arm into a fixed position.

This lamp stand is perfect for what I was looking for, but the screws to adjust the height and length didn't fit correctly in the holes. I ended up buying different screws to avoid an exchange process.

A must purchase item. I purchased this lamp stand when I bought my deep mini dome lamp fixture. With multiple adjustments you can direct the heat or light just about anywhere you need to. The combination of this stand with the Zoo Med Mini Deep Dome Lamp Fixture is much safer then a clamp on lamp if your leaving your lamp on for long periods of time.

this is an outstanding stand - and very useful and versatile.

Great for large dome lights. Must stabilize by sliding the stand under the tank on a very level surface.

A good purchase when combined with Zoo Med Deep Dome Clamp Lamp. You can adjust the height of the lamp, and using the stand keeps the light from jostling when you need to get in the tank.

This stand makes life easier and safer. Keeps lamps from having direct contact with terrarium top. Also prevents your lamp from getting knocked off resulting in broken bulbs or ceramic heat emitters. I have cats so i feel safer with this item.
