The most useful Spider in the World
Couple years ago I've stuck with the problem: usage of 2 keyboards simultaneously needs good solution. Standard "X"-styled stands are really not good. They can be really good for 1 keyboard, and even quite stable and comfortable. But them are not suitable really, if you use 2 (or more) keyboards at the same time. Different stands have their own problems (most of them were born in attempts to solve some other problems :) ). As result - these solutions are really not good enough (or at all - depends from specific model).
And, some time ago, when I look for Nightwish concert, I noticed quite interesting and unusual stand, which stays as rock, surviving the storm of emotions of Tuomas Holopainen. I starting to looking for this magic stand, found it in different groups, and finally, catch the frame with close-look for this stand, where I was able to read name - Spider. All other - just a technical question. And for now - I'm happy owner of Spider Pro.
It stands without any movements, when I perform, using my two keyboards (important note - one of my synthesizers has weight about 15.5 kg (!)), the only little problem, that arms, which hold keyboard slightly springy under during performance, but this is not a problem at all.
Another great feature of Spider Pro - this is a module system. I use Sheet Music Holder, which can be easily attached in a couple of seconds by one hand movement - very comfortable!
Height adjustment is another great function. You can fix "arms" for keyboards or any other additional modules at any suitable level without head-acke for changes in distance between arms, angle of "second floor" etc. You can just slide holders of Spider downward and use it at any needed height, so you can perform sitting or staying - without any problems or inconvenience.
When Spider Pro is folded - it just a compact pillar.
And last (for my review, not for Spider) greate thing - this stand takes much less place on stage, then other stands, and save for me possibility to use place under it for pedals or foot-switches.
The only thing - is quite big weight (about 10-11 kg), but this is reasonable price for incredible stability on stage!
Summing: Incredible, stable, compact, module, adjustable - this is the 5 words, which should appear in the mind, when you speak about K&M Spider Pro. Thanks to it's creators!

Very good
It's very good, no problems whatsoever, the height is adjustable and the keys lay very nicely on it. As expected for the money.

Not the steadiest, but pretty steady
Like an ultimate support stand on steroids.
If you play with any velocity (real pianists will understand what I mean), it shakes a little bit, but nothing that really interferes.
As usual with K&M, a bit pricey, but the quality is undeniably world class.

K&M 18860 Spider Pro Black - Strong, Sturdy Stand!
The K&M 18860 Spider Pro is an excellent stand. It can hold the heaviest of synths steadily, especially live and with a lot of movement. I added the extra shelf for smaller synths and now the K&M 18860 Spider Pro and accompanying shelf is my go to for live and video set ups. Worth the money and after good usage this stand is still going strong. No issues yet. Would recommend, this stand can take the pressures of road life and long studio hours.

Stability & Quality
I’ve been using the König & Meyer Spider Pro in my studio for a couple of weeks now, holding a Studiologic Numa X on the bottom and a Behringer Wave up top and honestly, it’s been solid. No drama, no wobble, no mystery rattles. The vertical design is the real win. It keeps both keyboards close and comfortable, like they’re stacked in a musical high-rise instead of balanced on some rickety X-shaped contraption as I had before. The arms lock in tight and feel trustworthy, like they’re not going to fold up mid-chord and send the Numa X into low orbit. Sitting or standing, the playing angles feel natural, and there’s plenty of room underneath for pedals without knee-boxing the stand.
Build quality? It’s got that “German engineering” vibe. The center column is sturdy, and cable routing down the spine keeps the mess tidy. It looks clean in the studio futuristic, but not trying too hard. The Behringer Wave on the second tier sits comfortably, and I never feel like I’m reaching into the clouds to play it.
It’s not all roses, of course. Even folded, the Spider Pro is tall and a bit awkward to move around, like carrying a metal lamppost. And it definitely costs more than budget stands, but those budget stands wobble like anything, and this one doesn’t flinch.
After a couple of weeks with it, I’d say it’s the kind of stand you stop thinking about and that’s a compliment. It just does its job, quietly and confidently, while your keyboards sit there like royalty on a steel throne.
If you want tiny and cheap, skip it. If you want stability with a bit of swagger, the Spider Pro earns its space.
