On-Stage KT7800+

I'm very pleased with the quality of the bench. My son of 8 years old is using it with his e-piano and I'm using it with piano and guitars. The bench is indeed very stable. There are some minor remarks, so I'll try to break it into pros and cons.

Pros:
- Stability. It simply doesn't shake no matter how you move.
- Adjustability and easy-to-use - just a click and you have your custom height - range is good for both children (8 year old, 140 cm height) and adults (41 year old, 176 cm height).
- Soft and comfy. Both me and my son like it. If feels good. I can sit and play for hours without noticing.
- Price. I was suprised to know how expensive keyboard benches are. My first though - find a good second hand, but nope, it looks like they are only sold together with keyboards (not separately) and then I found this one.

Cons:
- One of the rubber heads constantly falls out (when moving). I need to make sure it gets back to its' place without being accidentally lost.
- No suitable covers. Look, I'm someone who likes to treat his stuff nicely. I hate scratches on guitars, pianos, screens and yep - chairs too. I spent a couple of evenings looking for a suitable cover for this one and finally asked my wife to make one, because I could find any. I would really appreciate if something like that would be included or offered as an option (or add-on).

I've tried several keyboard benches now, all of which had some issue or another and the build quality of each was disastrious. But the On-Stage KT7800+ is finally a bench that feels like it's worth the money.

Different to every other X-shaped bench I've seen, you change the height not by directly adjusting the legs with a pin or screw in the middle, but through retractable pins on the bottom of the cushion.
This not only makes it extremely solid without any wobble, but aligning it is much less of a hassle. It's a simple thing, but it genuinly is like a spark of innovation in a field that hasn't seen light in decades.

The mechanism aside, the legs are also thicker than usual and nothing bends or moves when you sit on it. I'm far from the weight maximum of 150kg, but I wouldn't be surprised if it could hold even more than that, if anything the cushion will give in first.

On that note, if I had to give one negative, it's probably the cushion. I'd personally prefer some kind of fabric cover over the faux leather, like the K&M 14066 has for example, as I find those more comfortable to play on, but it does provide solid seating nontheless.

It is much thicker and more firm than most I've seen so far, so it does feel higher quality than other faux leather cushions I have used in the past at least.

Overall I'm very happy with this bench and hope the cushion will last, as I have no doubt the base will.
