Seems to be satisfactory and solid
I needed to replace a Pearl D 1000 N. I was TOTALLY satisfied with that Pearl seat until it broke down under me about 5 year too early in my opinion. I was really disappointed in that product and wanted to try something else.
I ordered this Gibraltar seat because my research for really solid hardware and especially drum seats indicates that Gibraltar might be a good choice. When I found out it only costs about 110,- Euros I didn't think twice.
The round seat sometimes turns when I make a sudden turning move with my upper body while playing. My Pearl D 1000 N didn't do that. Also it is a lot softer than the Pearl which also is not what I favor. But the Pearl seat fits the Gibraltar stand nearly perfectly so it is possible to experiment.
The stand itself seems to be solid enough and that is what I was going for. I hope it will last longer than the Pearl.
In the end I think this seat will do the job AND it is not as exceptionally expensive as nearly everything else in drum gear is at the moment. So I recommend checking it out.

Excellent throne overall
I bought this throne while rebuilding a drum set from the ground up since moving to Europe. Previously, I had a Pork Pie roundtop throne, and previously a basic PDP throne. This is an adequate median between those thrones, given the top is much more firm than some higher end thrones, but the stem is the same design and 99% as sturdy. It's just slightly more fine compared to my Pork Pie. The benefit of having a firmer top is that it will maintain its form for longer, and somehow I can sit on it consistently for longer before feeling any discomfort.
My only dislike is that the logo was printed 90 degrees away from the seam of the top, rather than 180 degrees like I prefer.
I also gave 4 stars in the "Quality" category only because it's not as heavy duty as some other thrones, but still well built overall! I am satisfied.

Poor quality...
The stand is becoming too loose and the throne looks like it separates on the inside.
I paid too much for poor quality.

Comfort and Function
Very easy to use and very comfortable.
Folds up nicely for set up and tear down.

Very good chair for its value.
But little is taken away from its glory, as the expectation is for a softer seat. Otherwise it is quite stable.
