Gearank Recommendation
The 9100AL appeared on our recommended list for Round Drum Thrones from September 2017 until November 2020 when it was out-ranked by the Gibraltar 9608SFT and Pork Pie Round thrones.
Overview
Drum Workshop has always been highly regarded in the field, their hardware especially.
The brand is synonymous with quality, and the DW 9100Al Airlift Drum Throne is a perfect example of this.
The throne uses a hydraulic lift system, making raising and lowering it as simple as pressing up or down on a lever.
The throne is also very well made, with its double braced legs being one of its stound-out features.
While the throne is great for home, the inclusion of the hydraulic lift system may make it a bit too heavy to be practical as a gigging throne.
It does fold up into a pretty manageable package, but if youโre going to be gigging consistently you may want to go with something thatโs a bit lighter.
If you’d like the convenience of easy height adjustment and don’t mind a little extra weight, then this is a good choice.
