Astro Chair
-
(See
review below)
This
lightweight (10#) observer's chair is rated at 300# capacity. We bought
these for ourselves and haven't used anything else since. At $105.00 it is
priced significantly lower than similar chairs. We guarantee you'll be
pleased with this item or return it in 30 days and we'll give you your money
back.
This
portable observers chair is convenient and easy to use.
Simply open the back leg, the contoured padded seat easily adjusts with one
hand. The infinite adjustability guarantees the optimum work posture.
Folds up to a 4" profile .
Adjustable from
18-32", this is a great observer's seat. If you have been standing to
observe you will be amazed at how much more detail can be gained by sitting down
and relaxing. The one hand height adjustment makes changing from zenith to
horizon a snap!

Want to get a scope 50% larger than the one
you now have?
Sit down!
I never cease being amazed how much more
detail I can see
on any celestial object when in a stable
sitting position versus
a standing position. The human mind plays
a significant role
in processing the image projected into our
eyes by our
telescopes. If your eye is wandering
around and moving back
and forth over the eyepiece exit pupil you
will perceive less
than when your brain is being fed a steady
and uninterrupted
stream of photons. See Dr. Suiter's
"wobbly stack" description
in his definitive work on collimating
telescopes for more
information.
To this end, I have found the astro chair
from BuyAstroStuff to
be the best of breed.
This chair is not only amazingly sturdy, it
also has a number of
very nice touches that when combined,
really make a difference.
First, it is a quality product. Made by
Seiko in Japan (not the
watch maker people but similar quality),
this chair has a very
solid feel. The feet are turned 90 degrees
so they don't sink into
soft ground as easily as other chairs.
The cam locking
mechanism has infinite adjustment that when
locked, has no
play whatsoever. It folds flat for easy
storage. The seat is locked
even in the flat storage position. It has
a foot support for when
you are using the highest seat positions.
You have no idea how
nice this feature is until you have used it
and gone to another
chair that doesn't have it. The chair can
be opened, closed and the
height adjusted even with the thickest
gloves on. Padded seat.
User serviceable parts. Textured finish on
the metal that allows
secure and slip-free handling even when wet
with dew or ice.
The design even provides a natural and
convenient top handle.
Last but certainly not least, the price is
competitive. Really
competitive. I have used astro chairs that
cost twice as much as
the BuyAstroStuff chair that are not nearly
as good!
The only suggestion I would make to
BuyAstroStuff is to change
the color to white or neon red. Making the
chair more visible at
night would make it a bit less likely
someone will trip over it!
I give the BuyAstroStuff observing chair
five stars. You will too.
