You get what you pay for.
This is just a terrible product. It LOOKS to be a competent piece of kit, it was easy to set up, but the pick up is dreadful. I don't know if I have to always be 5cm from the mic but for it to pick anything up clearly but if it was a decent mic you wouldn't HAVE to be permanently 5cm from it. And I work in a silent room - this thing just doesn't pick up anything, and there is no gain control on the mic to make things better. Also came back to the mic tonight to find it had suddenly dropped down so the mic was almost upside down on the holding arm. This despite me being very careful to tighten all the turning screws up properly, and it had maintained that for a few days, and no, it had not been knocked in any way, or even moved. Doesn't bode well for the quality of the fittings, either.
Cheap, but that's the only good part.
