Product Information

It mentions a weight limit of 220 lbs, but some users report it being able to hold up to 250 lbs (not recommended though). This chair is a simplistic design, but it works precisely as it’s intended.

For telescope observing, you will need a good adjustable chair so that you can change the height of your seat, enabling you to adapt to whatever position your telescope happens to be pointed. The padding is a bit thin on the seat itself, though, meaning it’s not the most comfortable observing chair around. At 13 pounds, It’s also very light, and you should have no problems carrying it with you if you plan to take your star viewing activities to an outdoors environment. It’s also easy to fold and unfold thanks to the intuitive and straightforward mechanism. It also has rubber feet for extra stability. Astronomy and stargazing involves a lot of standing or sitting in the same place, staring up at the sky. It's by no means the most energetic of pursuits, and as a result, comfort and warmth are important. The Vestil CPRO-800LP Ergonomic Observing Chair is one of the finest affordable observing chairs on the market.

What features determine the comfortability of a stargazing chair? Softness, padding, and material durability are some crucial features that affect comfort. Softness and padding are essential for rather obvious reasons—sitting on a padded surface is much better than a stiff board. The only difficulty is getting into and out of the seat when it is on the lowest two rungs. Otherwise, it's a tremendous chair. The bottom of the chair has a splayed design on both ends, which provides additional stability on uneven terrain. The unique design doesn’t also make it look different, but it also functions differently. The seat itself is removable, and its position can be changed by inserting the seat into the predefined notches set at different heights. There are 6 of these positions, ranging from a height of 9 inches to 30.7 inches.

Overall, the Vestil CPRO-600 is an excellent choice for any amateur astronomer, and it’s reasonably priced. It’s also perfect for anyone who is upgrading their telescope to a larger aperture as well, particularly if you’ll be using a Dobsonian telescope! I recently aquired a 6" f12 refractor where, with the mount I'm using (Losmandy G11 w/ HD tripod and 12" pier extension), the eyepiece height at zenith is about 30" above the ground and when pointing the scope near the horizon, the eyepiece is about 15" over my head (I'm 6'1"). If durability is something you’re looking for in a chair that will satisfy all your needs when it comes to observing the stars, then the Starbound Astronomy Viewing Chair should be on the top of your list.Other measurements such as the PV and RMS are important too. With these measurements, the lower the number the better as it shows less curvature on the lens. The flatter an optical lens, the better it will perform. The PV rating (Peak To Valley) is a measurement from the highest point (Peak) to the lowest point (Valley). From this we get the RMS (Root, Mean, Square). This is a similar figure to the PV and measured exactly the same way. The RMS is basically an average height difference from the PV so again, the lower the better. As you can see form the example below, we measured an RMS of just 0.027 wave which is a very good value. The easiest way to spot a truly ergonomic chair is how it looks. Some ergonomic chairs look like modified office chairs, but the most posture-efficient chairs often look a little odd, with extra padding in specific locations for additional support or other interesting design choices. Your observing chair needs to be comfortable But it's also important to have a suitable place to sit while you gaze through the eyepiece or stare up at the night sky. Credit: Will Gater I've been looking at these Catsperch chairs (I know there are other options, but these seem very sturdy and well made) and I'm not sure whether to get a shorter one with a max seat height of 32" to deal mainly with objects near the zenith, or get the larger "pro" model with a max height of 46"? So, now that you’ve learned of the importance of astronomy observing chairs when it comes to comfortably watching the stars in all of their wonders, you are now ready to take matters into your own hands and use the newly received knowledge in helping you decide which one is the right for you.

While it is a little on the heavier side thanks to its solid metal construction, it still folds to a very compact size. Thanks to its vinyl seat, you can be sure that it will be fairly comfortable to sit on and easy to clean due to its slippery texture.While using a chair for astronomy isn’t the most labor-intensive, you’ll want something made with durable and resistant materials.You’ll need a chair that doesn’t start falling apart after a few uses outdoors and is resistant to rust or corrosion. The chair folds down for easy portability, and it’s an incredibly lightweight design. It supports weights up to 264 lbs, and the wooden legs come with protective foot covers. Unlike our previous entry, the Starbound Astronomy Viewing Chair can be fully collapsed, though you do have to take the seat off first. Overall, this seat is a sturdy and comfortable telescope observing chair, but it is priced a bit higher than others.

These tables aren’t just for dining; they provide a stable surface for children’s playtime activities and, as evening falls, they become a sociable spot for adults to enjoy a peaceful drink. Practicality is key, and these tables enhance this aspect by working in tandem with camping cupboards and storage , keeping the camping area clutter-free. The utility of a camping table stretches beyond its immediate environment—it’s just as effective on a sunny beach day or as the centrepiece for a garden BBQ at home.

The chair itself is made from steel and is quite sturdy and durable, making it suitable for extended outside use. The Omegon Astro is yet another excellent astronomy observation chair and thus it has deserved the second best place in our article. It offers a very good seat adjustment range going from 11.8 to 34.25 inches and using most telescopes out there comfortably won’t be an issue. The Starbound Astronomy Viewing Chair is a heavy-duty and sturdy chair perfect for the traveling astronomer.
