I have read similar things on other forums and I am always surprised. I called the man this morning and he answered the phone. He almost always answers the phone, when I call and he always sounds happy to hear from me. I have never had trouble getting him.
That is how he does them, I have seen lots of pics of his seats in addition to my own and he always puts more stitching in the driver's seat. I have no idea why but after dealing with him I am sure he would be happy to give a reason and would probably do it however you want it done.
Caller ID??
I love my Laam seat and have nothing but good to say about the man and the product. Thanks to Redfish telling me about Laam and how great it is, I can now ride all day without having a very ugly overpriced seat that would damage my image of being waaay cool.

I have a Laam seat also and love it. I will admit I had a hard time getting hold of him when I wanted to have some adjustments made. Precedents paid off and I was finally able to discuss the adjustments with him. I get the feeling that he is quite happy with being a one man show type of business and has plenty of customers to support this. If he losses a customer or two along the way because they can't get a hold of him he will most likely survive. His product is that good and priced right.
I do agree with the butt ugly look of some of the competitors seats. If I wanted a seat that looked like a Harley seat, I would buy a Harley.

Okay, got my LAAM back after adjustments. Still a little low, but I'm going to try it for a week and see what I decide. I was hoping to be able to have it high enough that it would work on the middle setting, but I still have to have it on the highest setting.

I figure that by the end of this or next week, I should decide if I call him again or not. I'm not sure how many adjustments he is willing to make, but we will see!
4:Just looked on his website:
Comfort Guarantee
Your seat should be more comfortable than your stock seat was. If for some reason your seat is not, simply fill out our adjustment form and submit, ship your seat back to us at the assigned date and we will adjust the seat until it is right for you. There is no limit on how many times you can do this.
So it could be going back in a week or so. Or less... but if it's going to cost me $15 every time I send it back...adds to the total cost pretty fast!
4:Maybe I should just get a new Russell!

I really like me Laam seat, but it is slippery with textile riding pants and the stitching lets water in. When you sit down on it after a rain, you get a wet butt.
