Millenium MDT5S-Pro Drum Throne Saddle Reviews

It’s fine

The drum throne is a fine throne to sit on only thing I had issues with is that part were the screw sat came lose and had to look how to get that part tight in the legs of the throne. The back piece is also great for when you want to fall back but keeps you in place. In overall it’s a great throne only thing I would give others is to take a bit of time to set it up properly and look after things that don’t feel good while setting up like lose pieces.

Not Good

I bought two for my friends and all was used ones and the leg got destroyed. I wouldn’t recommend for anyone.

Good quality, well built

Really comfortable, quality drum throne. Pneumatic adjustment for instant height fine tuning. Really solidly built. I love this product.

cheap but ok

i m more on a tall side and its still works perfectly for me

Excellent Quality

I have this stool for a long time now and find it extremely comfortable and excellent quality

Reliable and comfortable saddle for it's money! Great purchase!

You get what you pay for

The Millenium brand can be a hit or miss sometimes. Some of their products, I absolutely love, but unfortunately this was not one of them. The quality of the material seemed to be really good, but something in the design made it a wobbly a lot of the time. I ended up selling it within a few months and replacing it with a Gibraltar throne.

Good value but not great

These stools are great value but for a long session are not comfortable .Spend a bit more for the sake of comfort. I replaced mine after a short while

it held me up

yes, it works. it held me up. however i honestly didn't like this stool. the molded seat was hard and a bit uncomfortable and the post that held the saddle itself wiggled in the base causing noise. i'll get something else next time. it's ok. it will work but it's not the best.

A cheap, no-frills drum throne that can handle the road

I bought this throne because I like bicycle seats and wanted a backrest without breaking the bank. At 60 Euros I suppose it's a bargain, but it's lacking in some ways.

All of the turning parts and screws became very threaded within about 5 weeks on the road. The wingbolt that fastens the seat to the stand is almost locked in place because of the threading problem. I also have to be careful how I set it up, because if it's facing noon it leans downward, and if it's facing 6 o'clock it angles upward. Not ideal.

The backrest is easily put on or removed depending on your preference. I found it to be quite comfortable for longer gigs, but it's really about the best thing I can say about this stand.

Pros:

- Cheapest way to get a bicycle-style throne with a backrest out there

- Overall robust feeling, spindle is solid

- Backrest optional

Cons:

- Bolts and other 'connecting' hardware wear down very quickly

- Noticeable "lean" or angling of the seat depending where it's facing

- Lowest height may be too high for some players.

Not bad for the price, but it leaves me wanting more.

My butt has never known comfort like this

This throne has everything your butt wants . It's got the cut out for your thighs and a back rest to relax between songs. No need to be constantly slunched over the whole time

Far from what it should be

I had no expectations of this being the sturdiest throne, because I know good ones (I own a Tama and a Gibraltar as well), and I also owned some very basic/flimsy ones too. I suspected some issues knowing the price. But it did not meet my already lowered expectations. The comfort is okay, no real complains there. The back support is a bit weak, I can alter the angle of it just with my arm (with some force, but still). Not sure how it would behave under my full weight pressed to it. Not sure I want to find out either.

And it is wobbly as hell! I constantly have to retighten the screws, and the legs have no option to tighten them on the lower side of the throne-base (where the legs horizontally connect to the shaft in the middle). When I sit on it, it is wobbly, not really stable at all.

I altered the throne quite a bit to have a somewhat usable throne. Drilled a route for a winged screw to tighten the legs at the bottom, which improved the stability. I just cannot - in good conscience - recommend this! Not without some minor upgrades. And what is frustrating that with 2 minor tweaks this can be a decent mid-tier drumthrone. Stronger support for the back and a screw to make the legs stiff(?). For the price and for a beginner, this is okay(ish). But would I recommend to someone who wants to use it on the long run? Absolutely not! If you have the know-how and the willingness to modify it to work as it should, than go for it. I admit, I had worse thrones in the past! But as I grow older, my tolerance for design flaws... well... you know what I mean.

Nope

Just a no for me. The backrest is not stable and not steady enough to lean on. The seat is coming loose very easily. I use the rack for my other seat so that is working okay.. Better invest in an normal seat, or spend more money on a throne with backrest.

Millenium Throne....

A drum stool that is as comfortable as it looks. Good quality, great price, nuf said!

so ggod.

hahahaha, i took delivery of throne and immediately used it for my gig.

it's so strong and solid,

grips firmly whether on floor mats or bare floors.

height is easily adjustable and the saddle makes it more comfortable during playing time.

Apart from that the leather is strong and soft which makes sitting on it comfortable. the stands are wide enough and so you don't get toppled up when playing and allows you to get a greater range of motion whiles playing.

The front cutaway of the seat also allowed me to play completely unimpeded and with a full range of motion with their thighs. overall i am happy for buying this and will recommend it to others. Price is also cool.

Good for the price

The throne is stable and comfortable enough for me, but you do notice some wobble if you lean too much to one side. The other complain I have is that this is a tall throne, and even on the lowest height setting it's roughly at the same height as my previous throne on the middle setting, so take note if you're a short person that usually plays with the lowest height possible on the throne.

Good offer!

I bought this chair mostly because of backrest, and because of great price for chair like that.

I often been the case that hurts spine during playing, so I need a chair with a backrest.

The biggest problem with these chairs is that the seat is too hard. Quality is good, but there are few worse things made ??, which is not such a big problem. The chair would be solid only to improve the seat.

comfy seat, mine wobbles just ever so slightly but over all great.

Really great quality bit of kit

This is used at home to practice on my electric kit (also millennium) and take it to the practice studio to practice in the studio on my acoustic kit. It's really comfortable, and supportive and helps to keep my posture a little better when I'm playing. If I had one criticism, it wobbles a little (only a little, and isn't an issue at all).

Fantastic Value

I bought this drum stool after deciding to begin learning drums on my electronic kit After attempting to perch on some cushions I'd piled onto an old metal stool I had lying around, I reluctantly decided to buy a drum throne, having seen how expensive they could be, even used, I was expecting to find only the most basic, height adjustable stools in my price range.

I did not expect to find a seat of this quality and price. It is very well-built and incredibly easy to set up, adjusting it's height was a bit more complex than I anticipated but its a small price to pay for the stability and comfort this seat offers. The backrest feels supportive and in no way cheap.

All in all I don't think there is a better drum stool available for the price!
