Astronomy Doesn’t Have to Be a Back-Aching Experience!

Take a load off while you observe at the telescope and your back will thank you. Stooping over to peer into a telescope eyepiece can take its toll on your back and neck and shorten your observing sessions. These adjustable-height stools are just what the doctor ordered. Each has a padded, adjustable-height vinyl seat and sturdy metal leg supports. Legs fold and seat detaches for easy storage.

I find the seat to be excellent ... but ... the little rubber feet came off in the dirt the very first evening i used it. :( Otherwise, it's a very convenient seat.
