Love this throne! Due to it's ability to adjust, adjust, adjust -- including swivel factor, this seating has been a boon to my aching back compared to stationery models I've used. Just be careful not to fall over -- legs are VERY stable and secure, but the tri-pod factor can cause chair to tip if you're not careful. I added the back rest and it's very adjustable as well and provides the right support for relaxing and helps me maintain posture. In this chair I can tell when my posture is slacking and can correct immediately to negate any long-term effects. I play harp and love the swivel and height action as it helps me align into just the right posture. Too bad they don't sell backs for the other models!

I have one of these thrones in red and I love it. The shock absorbers in it allow you to bounce around, which is nice if you're getting into your music. The seat can go very low or very high for different drummers. Again Great throne. I also recommend the backrest too.

I bought this a week ago and was impressed when I first pulled it out of the box. I'm kind of big and this doesn't lose height like my old throne used to. It also has that nice bit of bounce to it which really adds to its comfort. It is an excellent throne.

When I got this throne about 4 years ago as a gift from my grandparents, I thought it was a pointless addition to my kit and could be no better than the regular old throne I was using at the time. Boy was I wrong. The seat itself is very nice and cushy and really fits the contours of your body pretty well. The backrest is also a really nice addition. The hydraulic lift works great and is really solid. The slight bouncing action is also great. There really isn't anything I don't like about it.

I've owned this Roc-n-Soc for approx. 9 years. I convinced myself that I could play better and longer if I had the best throne known to man. Still is as solid, comfortable, and bouncy as the day I brought it home. On the road it fits real nicely in my hardware case. I suppose I'll have to convince myself someday to purchase the optional backrest.
