Love this device for what it is intended to do. Only complaints are that it takes up a lot of desk space and is knocked over quite easily. The latter might be resolved by a sturdier base. And you need to be sure you're within 12 inches of microphone or you'll sound like you're in a tin can.

So, I didn't expect a whole lot out of this mic. Given it said it has a wide pickup pattern, like you would want for a group, like in a conference room sitting around a table, I thought it would probably be a bit weak. Folks on zoom calls with me tell me that's not the case, that it sounds just fine, like I'm "on the radio."

I have done some test recordings and while it's no directional mic, it's actually pretty good for just me sitting at my desk doing zoom calls. In comparison recordings, sound was only slightly less strong than the "gaming" headset mic I was using before. Sound was a little different, slightly more distant though, again, not weak, but still good quality. I'm running my mic gain about 80% on the PC and it's fine, so I even had some room if I want to boost it a bit. If you consider the gaming rig puts the mic 3" from my mouth and I sit this 2-2.5 feet away and it's only SLIGHTLY less strong, I'd say that's a definite win. I can move around, kick back in my chair, etc. and there is only a slight change in how I sound, although I use it in a very small home office with lots of 'hard' surfaces and without much in there to absorb sound, so others' experience in this regard may vary.

I really like the mute button on the mic which allows me to keep the mic in the muted state unless I'm using it. On Zoom, I mute with the app, but not all apps have that. THe button has a nice positive click, not mushy or cheap feeling. The LED that shows green for live, red for mute is very helpful to know which state it is in.

NO, it's not a $100 (... or more...) mic, but the build quality exceeded what I expected for this price point. The gooseneck is easy to bend, allowing you point point it where-ever, but it's firm and holds any position I've put it in just fine. USB cord is adequately long. The base is neither large nor heavy, but is very stable. I thought the blue LEDs on the top were trivial but as they are on all the time, turns out they are quite helpful to alert me right away if I accidentally pull the mic USB cable out instead of some other device I'm trying to unplug. Now I like them! It just worked, no drivers needed (using MX Linux).

I bought this as a "just try it out" sort of purchase on a whim and I thought it might just be something I moved to one of our machines out in the house where we would use it doing video calls with family and I'd move up to something twice the price. But it turned out I REALLY like this mic! In fact, it has earned a spot in my tech inner-circle and is now part of my daily-use equipment and I haven't looked at mics since I bought it.

If I need a second mic for me or one for someone else in the family, this will be a buy-again.

Update 3/2023: STILL going strong, great mic for the money. As I said I would ... buying another for my son.

Good desktop speaker. It has a nice heavy base and a good size neck. Nicely made and finished. I would order again.

I use this for work and it's perfect. I've this for phone conversations as well as Zoom meetings, people think I'm using a headset with a mic. There is no feed back on their end or mine, it doesn't try to pick up conversations from the computer speakers.

The neck to the microphone is super adjustable and the base isn't oversized causing a footprint problem on my desk. the USB cord to plug it in is long enough to allow me to put it anywhere I want and not have lean forward to speak into it.

At this price, I'm planning to get a second one to put aside in case I should need it some day in the future.

I do a lot of Zoom meetings and the mic is perfect
