Sorry you were not satisfied. These are made from stainless steel and do not bend. I just wanted to clarify that for others who might read the review. They are however very basic. They do a better job than others depending on the application. I also would agree that for most applications the Cannabis Hardware stand is going to be a more comfortable option. But there is a $40 price difference between these items. We have sold hundreds of these stands and they have proven effective for the more budget minded person. Sorry you were not satisfied in this case.
