Millenium DTRAB-1118 Drum Stool pneumat

Price and quality

This drum stool has been holding up and still looks like new. For a fraction of the price, comparing other brands, this stool will protect your ass and back, so your hands and legs can shine. Will buy again and again.

Comfy drum seat

It's the best drum seat I've had! The back support makes a huge impact when you need to stretch your back during the song intervals

Good value drum throne

It's a throne, its sturdy, the hydraulic adjustable sit works great. Brilliant value for money

Good value for money

Work great as a stool for my FOH mix position

Surkea

Ostin tämän koska siinä on selkänoja, olisi pitänyt tutustua asiaan enemmän. Selkänojan ja istuimen kiinnitykset surkeat, molemmista metallisista kiinnityksistä lohkesi pala irti. Todella vaikea saada istuin ja selkänoja tukevasti kiinni (ilman että hajoittaa metalliset kiinnitykset). Jo ennen kuin selkänojan kiinnityksestä lohkesi pala irti, sitä oli mahdotonta saada kiinnitettyä niin että noja ei olisi kallellaan jommalle kummalle puolelle koska osat olivat epäsymmetrisiä.

Istuin on tehty todella leveän ahterin omaavalle, aivan liian iso että kykenisin istumaan siinä niin että selkänoja tukisi alaristiselkää eikä selkänojaa saa säädettyä sopivalle kohdalle. Omalle kannikalle riittäisi puolet penkin koosta.

Mitäpä voi odottaa tällä hinnalla kaasujousellisesta penkistä mutta jos painat 120kg ja haluat halvan kaasujousellisen penkin jossa on hankalat ja käsiin murenevat kiinnitykset joita ei saa tukevasti kiinni eikä selkänojaa suoraan niin ehkä tämä on sinun penkkisi. Epäilen kyllä että penkki kestäisi kovin kauaa sen painoista istujaa.

Stable Throne

Thrashed about whilst using double pedals! It holds up nicely! Hydraulic system is a nice touch and I can sit comfortably for hours on this ! Its decent for the price.

goood seat

comfy and i am a big 240 kg man, it took my size good.

Broke within days

After three uses, this broke...feeling ripped off...how do I get a refund?

Good design and quality materials. Poor construction quality.

Good design and quality materials. Poor construction quality.

The first time that I sat on my stool five of the eight screws that fix the hardware to the bottom of the seat pad either came loose or just fell out completely. One of the screw heads had been striped making it difficult to put back. The four larger screws should attach to metal threaded t-nuts on the inside of the seat base but two of the t-nuts on mine were loose.

I left the screws in the t-nut and pulled them while screwing them in to get them tightened. If the t-nuts had got lost on the inside of the seat, which was a risk, then I might have had to resort to something like a piranha molly fixing. I also replaced two of the smaller screws with slightly longer thicker screws.

The result after repair is a really good seat for the price. The only remaining minor annoyance is that the base of the gas lift wobbles slightly in the centre of the clamp at the bottom of the legs but there's still a lot less wobble than with the seat I'm upgrading from.

Very comfy

Well thought out throne with a drummer in mind, it seems.

The interface between the chair and the shaft of the base is dovetailed, unlike the mapex models in that price range.

The mapex chairs without the dove tail will eventually start to rock back and forth. That is just the design of the thing. Built in obsolescence to get you to buy more products.. While you can hold this rocking back and forth off on the cheaper mapex thrones by always checking tension of the screws that interface the seat and the shaft, you are only delaying this. I am only comparign this to the lower mapex chairs in the 50 to 80 pound sterling range. The cheaper ones with the spinning spindle. That interface is designed to eventually drive you mad. Spend a bit more on a chair or get this thing.

This is a really comfortable throne with a back rest for what you are paying. The motorcycle seat is not big and huge like the mapex models ( i have both a round and motorcycle mapex throne - i did that to get a feel of what is good. I opted for a motocycle style throne with a back rest).

I have a 34 inch waiste and this thing fits me fine with a bit of room to spare. "Big guys" may get different milage. If you are a "big guy", like an aaron spears big kinda guy, then this is not the chair for you. The sitting surface is not wide enough for bigger guys. In that case the better quality mapex thrones with their huge motorcycle seat might be better.

Dont be fooled by the price. This thing hits well above its price as many have mentioned.

If you are below 5 feet 6 inches then you will probably not get much use out of this. The lifting shaft bottoms out for shorter players. I am 5 feet 9 and i am almost at the bottom already with 2 or 3 inches to spare. Meaning i dont get much use out of the lift. I do get to use it but i am very close to the bottom. I play with legs nearly parallel to the ground. Just a slight downward slope.

Overall i am really happy with what i got. Really happy.

The quality/price ratio is now leading me to explore other millenium products. I was doubtful at first but not any more. If their other products are like this in terms of quality and what you get for your money then i will most likely will splat down on other things.

If i can come back and do a long term use edit then i will.
