We'll see how it stands up to the test of time, but I'm giving it really light use, so I expect it will hold up for years. Combine this with a clutch hight adjustment on the base stand, and you've got any position you want in two moves, or often just one.

Features
One knob releases and locks telescoping, vertical movement, and swivel movement.
Quality
I use this for recording. Because of the nature of this arm, you may not want to use it on stage where others may use it. On a typical boom, you can just force it up or down even when it's tight. I get the impression that would be a really bad idea with this arm, but I'm not going to test it out.
Value
I know there are much cheaper boom arms out there, but they usually suck. I have some economy stands and they're so flimsy it's embarassing to have anyone use them.

The Wow Factor
Ultimate is patenting this mechanism. I was leery about how it would work, but I'm glad I took a chance. I'm now purchasing a second one.
