First, a confession. I am not a drummer. I am a guitarist who recently purchased a Soundseat directly from the manufacturer, based on all the positive reviews on the net. I purchased it not just for when I play guitar, but also as a replacement desk chair for my aged Steelcase Thinkchair, which I loved, but has broken down. Prior to buying the Soundseat, I talked to the manufacturer and told them I also planned to use it as a desk chair and asked if they thought that was a good idea. I was told everyone in their office used one for this purpose and loved it.
Now for the bad news. I am finding that the chair is making my butt and thighs ache after sitting on it at my computer (back and shoulders feel great though).
Has anyone experienced similar issues with their Soundseat? Is there a break-in period?
Forgot to mention that mine has the medium back in addition to the throne.
For the record, I am 68, in good health, 5’10 and weigh 168 lbs. I will admit that my butt (or lack thereof) ain’t what it used to be.
I have contacted Soundseat and they were very surprised since it seems that all they have heard from anyone but me that it was the most comfortable chair ever. They suggested I play with the height and back settings and to give it a couple of weeks. I’ve done that and it still hurts after sitting for awhile on it, and that pain lingers.
Would love to hear others experiences and thoughts on this.
Thanks for listening,
Butthurt
