Questions & Answers
Yes, it will, I am 6'5 and 270 pounds, I am in two bands so I practice 2 hours a day, it has a secondary lock, it will slip a little so I readjust it every other day by 1/2 " I do recommend this throne.
The cushion will rotate if the clamp holding it in place is left slightly loose. If you tighten the clamp that holds the cushion in place, it will most likely come loose in a short period of time. I leave it unfastened so that the throne can rotate. It's strong and quiet, and it doesn't cause any problems.
No, casters are not allowed on this throne, in my opinion. You'll have to look for something else if you want a rolling stool. Drum thrones should, in general, be fixed.

Selected User Reviews For DW Drum Workshop 3000 SERIES DWCP3100 THRONE W/ VISE MEMORY
I'm 6'3" and 300 pounds, and I have the build of an aging nose tackle. Having said that, this throne is extremely durable. Even though some reviews stated that it kept slipping and that they had to readjust it, I still purchased it. I'm still perplexed as to why they had to adjust so frequently. The height has not changed at all since I set it and tightened everything down. br>br>I only have a practice drum pad, which I use to keep my arthritic hands/elbows moving and maintain what little grip strength I have left. But it's for virtual reality games that I really use the throne. I can/must stand the entire time for some, but I can also sit in my computer chair for others. But for those times when neither is quite right or I need a middle ground, this is ideal. I've leaned, ducked, stood up, and spun around a million times, and this throne doesn't seem to mind that I'm 300 pounds and doing this. br>br>My only complaint is that my backside and the seat are still getting used to one another. It's a firm padding, but it could use a little more give. That is the only reason I gave it a four-star rating. would be four They don't allow for 1/2 stars here, so it's a 5.
To begin, I'd like to state the following: I'm not a drummer in the traditional sense of the word. I play guitar and have a drum set that I use for jamming and recording scratch tracks. That said, this baby appears to offer a lot of bang for your buck, and I'm very pleased with my purchase. I debated whether or not to purchase a throne on Amazon, but I'm glad I did. For a low-cost option, You will not be disappointed with this goal-oriented throne.
I am not a drummer, but rather a bassist. And I bought it primarily to practice getting the right height, posture, leg angle, and so on. br>It arrived today in excellent condition, and it was simple to set up. Because I'm fine with the seat in its lowest position, I didn't have to apply much force to tighten the seat position clamp with the included drum head wrench. On stage, I didn't notice any unwanted creaking or noise because I left the seat swivel clamp a little loose so it could spin freely, and there was no whine or squeal when I sat on it with my bass and rotated slowly or quickly. The engineering detail in the leg brace clamp where the thumb screw does not make direct contact with the center tube is also something I appreciate. This will keep it looking good even after a lot of folding and unfolding.
I bought it as a gift for a 6'6 250lb guitarist friend so he could practice while sitting while still using his foot pedal board, and he loves it - After a few months of use, he is still studying, reportedly comfortable, and his size and weight are no longer an issue. I would strongly suggest it.
This is a pretty comfortable throne for a basic throne, and it goes up high enough for me (I'm 6'3"). I'm 230 pounds, and the seat doesn't stay in place very well. I've been tightening the memory lock as much as I can, but after five or six sessions, I'll notice that I need to adjust everything again. br>br>That's my only criticism, and I imagine it would be ideal for someone who weighs less than a pound eighty. br>br>Definitively superior to the $50 PDP (by Drum Workshop) version, which suffers from serious design flaws and is uncomfortable to use.
This is an extremely attractive throne. The seat is well-padded but not overly so. The bracing and legs are thick, and the rivets are securely fastened, resulting in a solid foundation. The height adjustment range is excellent, and it's simple to do so. There is no gas cylinder for height adjustment, no screw height adjustment, and just a basic round seat on this throne. That is why I enjoy it so much. The height adjustment is simple and quick, and it stays in place well. I prefer round seats and did not want a "bicycle" style seat, a back rest, or a post with fixed height positions, as found on many lower-end seats. As a result, this one was ideal. This appeared to be the nicest throne under $100 to me. This is the throne for you if you want something classic and sturdy.
Because I'm no longer a gigging drummer, I only practice at home on the throne, which is very sturdy and comfortable. I like how it looks, and I've had no issues with it thus far. Anyone in the market for a new throne should consider it.
Even though I raised my drums as high as I could, I still feel like I'm reaching down to hit the snare. My feet still reach the ground fine, even though I'm 6' tall; it's just a little higher than I anticipated. br>br>Aside from that, it's high-quality, comfortable, and there's probably no better option for the price.
