Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Victoria ★★★★★

Was a bit worried about the weight at 5.5 lbs, but it handles my 16" F8 without any flex or sagging. The 0.7" thickness feels solid, and the 23.75" length gives plenty of room for balancing heavy eyepieces.

Joseph ★★★★★

Bolted right into the existing holes on my 16" F8 with zero hassle—the 1.45-inch height from tube to plate top keeps the scope balanced perfectly. Feels like a permanent part of the setup now, which is exactly what I needed for heavy imaging sessions.

Grace ★★★★☆

Fits perfectly on my Meade 16" F8—bolted right into the existing holes with no drilling needed. The 1.45" height from tube to plate top feels solid and stable. Only minor complaint is the lack of pre-drilled holes for a finder scope.
