Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The base has lasted me years of almost daily gig use (possibly 7 yrs?). Couldn't be better. The seat hoever has a terrible cushion that almost immediately began to lose it's firmness and ends up sinking several inches within 10 min. of use. I'd start feeling like I'm sitting on an angle and have to constantly either turn the seat or adjust the height, or both. I replaced the seat with a Pearl seat. Pearls seat fits perfectly on the Gibraltar base and the cushion stays firm nearly the whole set. Unfortunately I couldn't find the Pearl seat by itself and had to buy the whole throne Pearl D1000SP Roadster Throne with Spring Post], but I prefer the Gibraltar base and never take the Pearl base out of the house. The Pearl base is cheaply made despite it appearing to be heavy-duty, is the opposite of road worthy. When I first got it, I was impressed with the qiuck release height adjustment and bought one for a club I play at regularly. Granted, this club presents 2 bands a night 7 days a week, but the Pearl base was destroyed within a couple of weeks. Not just the tightening hardware, but the base itself was completely falling apart. The seat is still in great shape and is still being used at the club with a generic brand simple design heavy-duty throne base... I'm confident the Gibraltar base would have the same lifespan as well. They do sell the Gibraltar base by itself if you already have or can find a superior seat. Gibraltar Throne Base Double Braced
