ok, this definitly adds some weight and makes the mount a little difficult to carry.after you have put it together, it is easier to remove the top 3 or bottom 3 screws to remove the tube and head of the mount and there fore makes it easier to carry. only takes a minute to remove the screws and then put it back together.saves the back from hurting. love the extra height it gives, not only for refractors, but make`s viewing through my 25x100 giant binos. so much more easy on the neck and back. for those of you who own a celestron cg-5 mount, this will work with it.i own both the cg-5 and a svp mount. so if you don`t mind a little more weight and you need more height then i say you won`t go wrong getting this extension. thanks orion for making my viewing more enjoying.

Just what you need if you have a refractor or a cassegrain and don't want to be on the ground all night. Makes observing a lot more comfortable. Works great on my CG-5 mount also. The product is also of high quality as all of Orion's products seem to be.
Favorite viewing location:??Front Yard
Favorite object to observe:??M31, M42, Jupiter
Yes, I recommend this product!

This extension is very well engineered and does provide the height and stability that I was looking for. Be forewarned that this is HEAVY and is not suitable for some tripods that it will fit on. I use it on a 2" tubular steel CG5 style tripod and it's fine but it is too heavy for my Vixen Great Polaris tripod. It's weight may turn your grab and go into a 2 or more piece operation unless you are relatively strong and fit.
Favorite viewing location:??my yard
Favorite object to observe:??solar system objects
Pros: stable, well engineered
Cons: heavy
Yes, I recommend this product!
