    The picture doesn't do any justice for this product! I had chosen the white color (has a black seat) based on another reviewer's suggestion to be able to see it better in the dark. Good choice! To adjust the height, you just lift up on the seat and move it to the desired position. According to the instruction manual, this chair is rated for 350 pounds which is 50 pounds higher than what I've read in the ad here.

    I've spent many nights out with my Celestron 6SE with times being on my knees on frozen ground, or, with my back arched over to look through the eyepiece. My 1st night out with the StarBound chair proved to be the end for pains after a few hours of observing!

    I also gave this chair a workout using every height level. I had set the seat to its lowest level to see how it would be to observe straight up at zenith.

    The moon was setting and I adjusted the seat for its maximum height to look thru the eyepiece - every view setting was good!

    This product makes star gazing comfortable. I also had a few reservations about buying this product at 1st, especially, the price for "just a chair". Reading other reviews had convinced me, and, yes, I have to agree the other reviewers were right! This is more than "just a chair" and worth the price. It gives me better back support than the lawn chair I was using in the past!

    I am a pretty big guy, 270 lbs. 6 ft 1 in. I find this chair to be rather uncomfortable. The seat is much too small for a guy my size and the back rest (steel rods) do not cut it. It could be considered strong to handle a guy my size, however it certainly is not worth the price paid. Perhaps a third to a half of what is being charged but not this price. I went to a store, [...], and saw an adjustable bar stool which is much more comfortable and supports much better and costs a LOT less.Up to this point I have been pleased with the other products I have purchased from this web site but I could not honestly in good faith recommend this chair to my friends.Respectfully, D. Holt

    Comments about StarBound Observers Chair:

    This chair is easy to set up (I do it with one hand and one leg), comfortable to use, and simple to adjust.

    I am aware of concerns others have expressed about chairs of this design not being as stable as other designs, but so far, I have experienced no weakness or instability whatsoever.

    The chair is well built and sturdy, a bit on the heavy side, but worth the effort to bring it to your observing site.

    I took the advice I read, I think among Telescopes.com reviews, to get a white chair to make finding it in the dark a bit easier.

    I can also affirm the view that the adjustable chairs makes it easy to make your scope accessible to the young children of your life.

    A good product.

    Comments about StarBound Observers Chair:

    A good observing chair is a must have, and this chair fills the bill. It is pretty easy to assemble, but I wish there was a way to slip the seat on the chair back faster or easier, as you have to unscrew the middle rod from the seat part, push the seat back far enough and then screw back on the rod. Other than that, the chair is great. Allows for quick adjustment and is pretty comfortable.
