Dear Jake,

I found the Apex to be reasonably stable with 61-note keyboards that are
somewhat heavy (light keyboards, not so). I found it to be very UNSTABLE with
keyboards with more than 61 notes. It is unusable for keyboards that have a
large width (distance between front and back edges); this is because the little
T-rex-length arms upon which the keyboard is to be perched aren't so long.

Warning: The Apex also has the singular ability to break your toes, feet, or
limbs if you drop it during breakdown, or if it tips over, since it is
basically a metal beam.

All said, I still have the Apex and use it when I can. It's great for what
it does do well.
