My new mic stand is... well... big

Wasn’t really paying close attention to the dimensions when I bought what I thought was just a slightly nicer light stand for my rig... ended up with this diesel thing.
I guess on the plus side it’s real sturdy and will get up real high above the chompers. Also plenty of space for other tapers to clamp on at festivals.
Am I stupid to think this bulky thing is worth keeping or should I just return it?
This is the stand

If it's too loud, turn it down.

14 pounds? I would return it and get that Photek stand everyone here has.

Is the photek much of an improvement over this one?

That’s what I already have, was looking for one a bit bulkier and taller

Supports 100 lbs? Just a little bit overkill.
I'll repeat my usual recommendation:
Manfrotto 1004BAC
, and a
STX lacrosse stick bag
to carry it in.
