Heavy duty is good for tripods and monopods

Great stand - important note the center pin was in the way of the underside of my old C8 and at first I thought this wasn't going to work. BUT you can lower the pen by unscrewing the center post holder. VERY stable stand - if a bit heavy.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something

Very stable, well made tripod

This tripod is very durable and well made. It easily supports the Celestron Nexstar-11 telescope. I sold it to another person who was delighted with it and he was amazed that it can easily support his full weight. Would definitely buy again.

Pros
  • Pleased
Cons
  • Protection

A must-have item for anyone who owns a NexStar Series telescope.

I needed a stronger tripod for astrophotography and this is the best tripod I could find for my NexStar 8SE perfect for this heavy duty CPC tripod. I would recommend this tripod to anyone who owns a NexStar series telescope.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Very solid tripod, supports all my gear

This is a very heavy and solid tripod, supports all my gear with minimal vibration that I received with a standard tripod. The only gripe I have is that the center support shell doesn't have holes for 2" eyepieces, while the standard 8SE tripod does. Not a big problem, but annoying enough to deduct a star.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Repair

The absolute best tripod for Nexstar SE or Evolution scopes.

After purchasing an equatorial wedge for my nexstar 6se I decided I needed a tripod that could handle the extra weight and provide a stronger base for my scope and wedge. While the standard tripod only accommodated the scope in an Alt/Az configuration, I was skeptical that it would be able to support the added weight of the two pieces of gear and my camera. After finding this tripod I made some reservations as the reviews didn't say much about it and it's an expensive upgrade. I was concerned…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competition is here

Incredibly durable telescopic tripod

Reasons for 5 stars: + Extremely durable tripod + Nice accessory tray + Excellent quality + Folds up nicely - Heavy This is a great tripod. I use it on CPC 800 and it fits perfectly. I didn't receive my tripod when I ordered the telescope so I bought (refunded) this one instead and it's an amazing tripod. It's incredibly strong, it can easily take more than the CPC 800 and I'm sure it's even been redesigned for the CPC 1100. However, it weighs decently as it weighs over 30 pounds. I don't mind…

Pros
  • Country of origin: China
Cons
  • Hard to say

They mean heavy use

I needed a stronger tripod to support my Celestron Nexstar 8 SE and the new wedge I bought for it. The combined weight of all this and the StarSense Autoalign camera I have is too much for the OEM tripod that came with my 8SE. Well, meaty is what I have. It is extremely stable even when the legs are fully extended. Sure, you'll get a lot of jiggling when you bump your feet, but that's to be expected. But the shaking is not as strong as with my old tripod. Minimal or no leg extension gives you…

Pros
  • No Description
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks
