Customer Reviews (4.4 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Natalie ★★★★★

I was pleasantly surprised by how solid the mounting is—the two saddle plates feel really secure once tightened. Setup was straightforward, and it’s perfect for my dual-scope rig.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

Having both a Vixen and Losmandy plate on one mount means I can swap telescopes without switching adapters. The machining is precise, and everything locks down solid with no wiggle.

Miles M. ★★★★★

The dual saddle design let me mount my scope and guidescope side by side without any wobble, and the parallel slots lined up perfectly with my existing hardware. Took about ten minutes to set up and it's been rock solid ever since.
