Heavy Duty Drum Throne Seat,Drum Throne Adjustable Stool Drum Motorcycle Style Drum Throne Drummer Stool with 5A Drumsticks

Great little seat I bought for my cousin when she plays her guitar

The Thorne is nice and comfortable, but it does set higher than I'd like when all the way down. Saying that, I'm only 5'6" but it still works for me when it's down all the way.

Pros: The chair has heavy duty metal frame, and the thick cushion has nice soft seat cover. Cons: At the lowest level, the chair is fine. When the seat is raised higher, it is wiggling. One of the drum sticks has a broken tip. Need better quality control

My grandson loves it

My husband just got this and tried it out for a two hour practice session. He said it was simple to put together, the seat is super comfortable, and the legs are heavy duty, but the seat itself is a little more wobbly than he’d like.

To start, I'll note that this stool is VERY comfortable, and I'm giving it 5 stars because ultimately I'm not bothered by the slight wiggle that comes from the junction of the seat and the post. But I feel compelled to mention it because if you want a stool that simply does not move, this probably isn't the one for you. But it's very easy on the body!About the wiggle...Anything "heavy-duty" is only as strong as its weakest link. The weakest link here is in the coupling between the bottom of the seat portion, and the post. I've included a picture of the spot in question. There is a metal bracket screwed into the bottom of the seat, and inside the metal bracket is a "sandwich" of two plastic pieces. The post is placed between these sandwich pieces, then two bolts on the metal bracket are tightened (with the included wrench) to grip the post tightly to the bottom of the seat.It wiggles. Just a bit. Not even really a rock, or a wobble. A little movement if you let it.I dare not tighten the nuts much more for fear of stripping a bolt, or cracking the plastic sandwich pieces (they appear to be rigid, like TPE). I only weigh 180 pounds and while the listing says in some places the weight limit is 250 and elsewhere says 450 pounds, I can still easily cause the seat to rock side to side about 5 degrees. I can't tell if it's worse or not after 30 minutes of moderate drumming, but I can say I didn't really notice it that much when drumming.That being said, it's COMFORTABLE. This is definitely the cushiest throne I've owned, and the bottom structure -- the legs and the post -- are solid as a rock and the height adjustment works great.The only drawback is the slight wiggle, which is hard to overlook at first. Maybe I'll get used to it. Maybe it's not that worse than one of my old ones, but I have another that is an all-metal round socket with an all-metal post and a massive wingnut set-screw that does a great job of holding it steady. The comfort of this one ultimately wins out, especially for long sessions, but I'm left shaking my head wondering if there wasn't a better way to match these two parts of the stool.

I think this is a great drum seat and throne for beginners and younger / shorter individuals considering the price point ($65). It has a double brace construction however it is not extremely heavy-duty. it is not lightweight by any means and it is still strong and sturdy enough for a stable performance. Assembly was very easy using the tools included. The drumsticks included are far from decent unfortunately but not a deal breaker.

As a drummer, I prefer to sit higher up so that I am letting gravity and downward momentum be more effective in my drum strokes. Never understood the appeal of sitting low on a throne. Feels like making more work for yourself ergonomically if you ask me.So when I got this throne I immediately set it to my preferred seat height. The seat itself is comfortable and feels well padded. Upon playing a few hours using it, I noticed a pronounced wobble. I checked and rechecked how the seat top was sitting on the post and it was secure. So the source of the wobble is the post itself when extended to how I like to sit behind the drums. I hadn't overextended the post, there was still room to go higher. So that leads me to believe that the post and the corresponding threaded base are not great quality. DW, Pork Pie, Gibraltar, these are the makers of quality thrones of this kind. Yes, they cost more, but the build quality and machining of the parts are far better.This throne is probably serviceable on lower height settings, but it wouldn't be my first choice for a piece of important drum hardware I'd bring to a live show. The other issue is that the seat top secured to the post by traditional bolts and clamp mechanism that requires you to use a supplied wrench to take on and off. These should be wing nuts. You need to be able to set up and break down hardware fast. This throne is just not made for the gigging drummer. The included drumsticks are soft maple and therefore useless for actual drumming. Hickory is the only wood for drumsticks. A spare practice throne at best.
