If there is one company that knows how to make a throne is Pork Pie!!! These thrones are absolutely legitimate. they are made from super soft urethane gel that keeps you comfortable while you sit for the many hours to come. this throne is built with double-braced legs, heavy-gauge tubing, and integrated (piano style) memory lock. Oversized rubber feet keep it right where you want it.

I absolutely love this throne! No more butt pain after a gig or long rehearsal. The throne top is way bigger than a traditional throne, but still comfortable even if you aren't an XL human. The padding is comfy but still supportive. Your nether regions won't sink in and get lost, something I was a little nervous about until I sat on it. The base is super heavy and solid. The way the seat post and lock are designed, you can leave it loose and rotate the seat to raise and lower it, but it can't sink on you while you're playing. This thing is easy on the eyes, too. I chose the black top with black sparkle sides, but there are tons of color/pattern options. This throne immediately became one of my favorite pieces of gear! It's definitely worth the price. Yet another great product from the big pig!

Wow! I've been using the same bicycle/tractor seat drum throne since they came out in the 90's. It just worked. But now that I'm getting a little older, I'm realizing that an entire evening of playing music doesn't have to hurt as much as it does. So I went full-tilt and bought this.

It's designed for heavier players, but really, anyone who wants to get a decent amount of support out of their throne that's not skinny as a rail should probably take a good, long look at this one. The seat padding isn't obnoxious, feather bed light cushion. It's a very solid-feeling seat that holds your butt in place, but gives you excellent support by wrapping around your butt a bit, too. My spine felt immediately more at home atop this chair than my old Gibraltar.

Another really nice feature of this throne is the piano bench style mechanism for raising and lowering the seat. My Gibraltar was supported by friction-tightening joints like any other stand. But for something that supports so much weight to be held in place only by friction is folly. The seat used to constantly fall back down. I actually secured it in place some years ago with a bolt. Now if I want to sit in another position, I'm stuck.

But this seat has a giant worm drive that raises it and lowers it by screwing lefty-loosey or righty-tighty. A nice clamp actually secures itself into the worm screw, guaranteeing a secure, unchanging seat position without requiring Herculean tightening strength.

Overall, I love this throne!! Not to mention the color is just sexy and awesome!

Very large, soft, comfortable seat. Makes playing very pleasant. Looks cool too.

The seat is comfortable and was easy to assemble and adjust but it is not the blue and white leopard pattern as shown in the picture it is actually a black and orange leopard pattern with a blue sparkle around the side which thankfully my daughter likes better.

I came across Pork Pie in 2003 and never looked back. Since my old throne died in a storage unit, I hadn't replaced, using another for some time now. Finally, I said, "Enough! Me bum can stand no more...", and bought another one. This new one is a plain-Jane black flat top with "Black Sparkle" sides. It looks like their regular silver sparkle, just a half-shade darker but nice anyway. I can't say for certain the Big Boy is much larger than the standard bicycle-style seat, or by how much if it is. I'm 5' 8" and just over 200 lbs and it fits me comfortably. If you're smaller, you might find it largish, but still comfortable. If you're a lot larger, it'll do better than most. For the truly baryatric drummer, you'll probably want to find a custom throne or a good dietician. Pork Pie thrones impress not only with their build quality and US manufacturing, but the seat foam is perfect for the long haul. On occasion, I do Open Mike Night at Uncle Mack's Snack Shack (home of the double-decker Iguana Burger!) and sets can run long on some nights. The Pork Pie pleasure couch never leaves me feeling fatigued or wanting a long hike--except for the occasional break to empty out the dregs of my compensation for the gig... True, some Pork Pie gear is spendy, but like a good mattress, you'll use it forever and appreciate the quality EVERY time you use it. Buy with great confidence! Buy the carry bag from Pork Pie as well; I've also reviewed it on GC. Great bag to carry the throne in.
