Millenium MDT4 Drum Throne Round 2-stars Reviews

Affordability does not come for free

Agree with other reviews, the padding is too soft and after the air comes out you'll end up sitting on a hard surface. The stability is not good either. This was a cheap stool so those doesn't really bother me that much. The only thing making me regret the purchase is the limited height adjustment, at the highest point it's still too low for me to play conveniently. Surely the height is in the description, but I didn't realize it's so much lower than competitors. Perhaps this should be labeled as a junior stool.

Puffy stool that won't stop rotating, gyrating even !!

I gave this a try on various possible configurations (i.e. drum kit, e-drum, practice pad), and it ended being relegated to the practice pad function. You can have this lower than usual and get away with it, like practicing on a pad, it's good for that; for drums I'd rather have something sturdier that doesn't move around as much.

absolutely not stable

It's sadly impossible to prevent all the screws from loosening after a couple of minutes

Nicht zu empfehlen

Lieber etwas mehr Geld in die Hand nehmen und gleich einen stabilen Hocker kaufen. Bei diesem ist man in der Höhe stark eingeschränkt und man ist mehr mit dem Balancieren beschäftigt als mit dem Schlagzeugspielen. Für Kinder vielleicht ok.

It's sturdy but the cushion is awful.

The stand is stable and feels sturdy but the cushion is not comfortable. When sitting on it, all air pours out and it's like sitting on a wooden plate with fabric on. It also gets warm quite quickly. But since I don't use it that often I'm okay with it, but don't buy this if you play a lot of drums, you will regret it.

Pour un enfant léger

Le siège est solide, bien fini su l'armature mais le l'assise est hyper basse et la mousse est d'une médiocrité... on s'assied dessus ça fait pfffffff et on atterrit sur le plancher (du siège).

Et ouais

Not the best for tall drummers

Got this throne with my kit bundle, but I'm 203cm tall and it's a bit small for me.

The threaded high adjustment comes lose very easily (literally in 20-30 seconds) and gets very wobbly. Probably because I had to pull it up quite high, but otherwise it would be too low for me, however I didn't really try on lower seat positions for obvious reasons.

If you're tall you should probably avoid it.

Not comfortable if you are an adult

I would not recommand this throne. It could work for kids but it's not comfortable at all.

You just sit on a small piece of wood.

I just replace it with the Gibraltar 9608E and I enjoy much more playing the drums now. I would advice you to keep your money and buy a better one.

It works, but I would not recommend.

I know this is a very cheap product and I shouldn't really complain - it's not too terrible for the price but still it is fairly bad. The seat itself is sort of weird and does this air-release compression when you sit on it, I guess that is functional but it feels rather strange when getting up and down. I have it tightened up properly but still the stool loosens very quickly and easily as the engineering and components are just lacking.

If you really can't afford better then don't feel too bad as this is comfortable and even if it takes a bit of extra fiddling, it works just fine. If you can afford an extra €20-30 then I would say go for something better if you plan to be at your kit a lot - it is a worthy area of investment!

Regret buying this

I try and set this close to it's max height, and it's constantly wobbling around. Can't get it to stay stable in any way. Constantly have to adjust it after playing a song or two. It is comfortable to sit on.

Terrible cushioning

I appreciate the stepless height-adjustment, but the seat cushioning is very poor. The foam is pressed flat after about 10 seconds and it just feels like sitting directly on the wood plate.
