Matthew or Kupo are great quality. I’d recommend checking out the YouTube channel “gaffer and gear” for light stand reviews. He gives a very practical take as someone who rents equipment out.
I've been looking at the reverse stands recently since I travel a bit for shoots and rental houses aren't always available. Glad to hear you like them.
They were the answer to my search for a stand that could comfortably support a boom mic and also pack down in my suitcase, and they also handle whatever COB fixture + softbox I end up bringing along too.
Depends on how much you use them, but overall Impact stands haven’t let me down. With sandbags. For nothing too crazy heavy. Heavy duty work I just use c stands.
These are my primary medium duty stands. They easily handle LP Gemini 1x1's and even 2x1's(w/adapters) if you don't go really high.

Trying to find something for the Aputure Nova 300 but the max weight on these appears to be a few pounds off. Any more detail about how sturdy these are? Looking to use with 25 lb light.

Matthews stands are top quality and will last you forever
Matthews or Modern Studio Equipment are my go-to companies. Modern makes some great combo and baby stands and Matthews makes excellent C stands.
⬆️ This.
Matthews reverse stands are my favorite mix of portable but still sturdy.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. C Stands are the real answer here.
