I have been using a Sunlite drum throne that I bought back in the 1980s to play acoustic guitar gigs for the past ten years, and it's finally time to retire it, as hardware is starting to come loose, though it will still hold me. I recently bought a Stage Rocker throne, and for its low price, worked fine for a couple of gigs, but was simply uncomfortable after an hour sitting on it. Not sure if it's the padding, but I knew I needed something else. During a break, I looked up drum thrones on Amazon and found the Gibraltar 6608. Well, I'm here to tell ya that this throne provides plenty of padded comfort, and though this is the first "bike seat" style I have ever used, I am lovin' it! The tripod is rock solid and stable, raises high enough to where I like it (maximum of 24"), and the bike seat is truly an improvement, comfort-wise. Similar thrones made by higher-end manufacturers can cost six times what I paid for this seat, and I could not justify the cost-for-quality reasoning on the basis of this throne's quality and price. I am now one most happy - seated - camper!

I've been using this drum throne for several months. It is very sturdy and allows me to adjust to the best height for my drumming comfort. The seat can spin with you or you can lock it in place. I've moved it around to several different positions, and lock in place when I'm ready. I highly recommend.

When we purchased this throne, it was with the intention of possibly upgrading it at some point. The reasoning behind this was that cheaper drum thrones (i.e. anything below $300) would eventually break when used by someone who went over the 150/200 pound weight limit on all of the single-post non hydraulic drum thrones. After doing a slight bit of research, Gibraltar seemed to fit the bill for a rock solid investment (some pun intended).Construction:It is a single post holding a wide seat, but features many points to anchor the various pieces together. The seat is a bit difficult to raise or lower without a key, but this could be seen as a plus by those of a larger frame. Those who use this in our household are big and/or tall and appreciate that it isn't too difficult to change heights, and stays solidly once adjusted. The faux leather and padding seem very well made for something of this level, and the metal (probably aluminum) is light but strong.Comfort:Needing a wider seat and strong foundation, this throne certainly does a fair job. However, new and more expensive thrones will have low lumbar support and built in ergonomics for leg spacing and comfort. As stated before, if you're looking for a budget seat in the sub-$100 range, and need something that will last, this seems like one of your best bets. However, because of the 'not leather' material and overall lack of features, on hot days or long play sessions it can cause extreme heat on the backs of your legs and you may need to get used to playing on it.Design:It's good looking, but not flashy at all. Looks better than the $30-$50 counterparts you see online and can definitely be mistaken for some of the higher end comfortable cloth covered thrones. However, because of it's simple 3 leg tripod design and black-on-silver make up, it won't fool many up close.Overall, we're very pleased to find something that won't buckle as soon as someone over 150 sits on it, and that can extend over one foot off the ground. Didn't break the bank, which was a nice bonus, allowing us to invest in other equipment for the time being. One star removed because of the cheap quality of the parts, and inability to adjust easily, all these point to a few years before it breaks rather than many.

I had been using a broken throne for over a year. It wasn't mounted well since it had broke and was wobbly and all of that. I finally realized it was time to get a new one. I did some research and found this Gibraltar one. I have been an extremely satisfied Gibraltar hardware customer for years. I have almost all Gibraltar Hardware for my entire set, as well as one of their racks. So I figured I'd try this throne. After having it for a few weeks now, I can't believe I waited so long to get a new one. This one is super rock solid built. Very sturdy, and extremely comfortable. Adjusts pretty easily, but once adjusted, it will never let you down by moving or readjusting. It not only has a regular tightening knob, but also a seperate additional locking mechanism that you can hand tighten with your drum key (same one you would use to tighten the drum heads, hardware, etc). This throne does not wobble, tip, or let you down even under the hardest playing experiences. Whether you a hard rock or metal guy who needs a super strong throne so you can give it all your weight so your legs can give your double bass drum pedals a work out, or you are a jazz muscian that just needs a comfortable balanced seat, you cannot possible go wrong with this throne.

I picked this up for use with an electronic set that I got for my condo.I own another Gibraltar throne for my acoustic set and have been very pleased with that, so the decision to purchase another was an easy one.It's packaged well for shipment and comes out of the box for easy assembly in a matter of minutes.It's easily adjustable for drummers of different heights or height preference and the shape is comfortable for the legs.The seat itself is firm and the throne as a whole feels very stable.As with most items, Amazon's price is great!I would recommend this for a drummer of any experience level.If you're looking for your first throne, you can't go wrong with the Gibraltar 6608. Additionally, I'd recommend a backless stool over one with a backrest. It allows for a drummer to be active in their playing, as well as increases your core stability.

Ottimo prodotto,lo uso nei concerti dal vivo.Soppratutto il serraggio della vite che regola l'altezza è efficiente, il seggiolino non scende durante i concerti. (non lo auguro a nessuno).La postura risulta corretta e il seggiolino è correttamente imbottito. L'unica accortezza se si è abituati ai seggiolini tondi è un minimo di attenzione nel sedersi e nell'alzarsi (bisogna aprire la gamba con un angolazione un pò più ampia).

The seat is not fixed in anyway with the stand. Need to hold the stand and legs in order to move it. Tricky.Enough to hold kids’ weight
