I've seen a bunch of them around. My main objection is that they don't fold down nearly as small as the old Wings and Wheels design. You could fit two of the W&W wingstands in an 8" ID tube for storage (i.e. a length of PVC pipe). With all of the crap that starts to end up in our trailers, compact breakdown is important (at least to me).
