I am glad to see that everyone is in love with this seat. I have tried several drum stools from Guitar Center, several of them highest-end models they carry from various manufacturers, and found that none of them were very comfortable for a several-hour-long preformances. I did not try them with the seatbacks, and perhaps that will make a difference.

One thing I did notice, however: they were all very heavy. I was looking for the weight of the SoundSeat in the specs, but could not find it. Could someone check that for me?

Thanks,
Alex
