Celestron Padded Telescope Bag for Origin Intelligent Home Observatory

I really like it for my purposes - although it is a lot smaller than anticipated. When ordering, I thought it would be sufficiently big also for 10" SCs or larger - but this one certainly is not. With another rail mounted on top to support my guide scope, it takes real effort to get the scope into the bag. And there is pretty much no space left to put anything into the circular end-bag. So, it is good if you want something tight and protecting around your 8" SC, but don't expect to add much other equipment.

Works great. I can store my sct8 with the telrad attached without any trouble.

Should be able to accommodate an 8SE with an attached StarSense - it doesn't. You need to remove the StarSense every time you put the scope in the bag.

I was more than a little impressed when I received this Celestron telescope bag! Not only was the price very reasonable, but the quality of every detail was excellent. The size is perfect, it's made of a tough material and is very well padded, solid zippers and carrying straps. Now I'm ready to hit the skies!

Very well design; strong and soft at the same time.

Very happy with this bag. Bought it for a birthday gift, so it hasn't been used yet, but seems to be good quality, and there was good turnaround on the shipping.

Nice soft-sided case. Works perfectly to transport my 11-in Celestron optical tube. Note you have to remove all the attachments from the tube?even my skinny StarPointer finder scope needs to come off to fit the tube in the case. However I can wrap the dew shield around the tube and fit them both in there. Also my OTA has an "SCT to 2-inch Visual Back? adapter mounted on the end of the tube (adds about 2.25 inches to the tube length) and that assembly still fits into the bag. There is a nice extra storage pouch at the bottom of the case that is handy for storing cables

Pros. Telescope bag is big enough to store my telescope and accessories. You will need this bag for certain size telescopes. The bag didn't come with a carrying strap. Cons. I placed an order for the bag twice. I did this because of misinformation from the manufacturer on time frame availability. It ending up taking over six months to get the bag. The outer packaging from the shipper was a mess and I am surprised the bag was not damaged during shipping.

Ordered the bag for my wife's Celestron StarSense telescope. Everything fits beautifully. The bag is designed for the whole family of telescopes, so some likely fit better than others. Best part is the tripod and accessories can be stored with the telescope instead of separately.

Great asset for storing and carrying my new Nexstar 8SE telescope! It appears that Celestron has thought of everything when it comes to amateur astronomers like myself.

Nice bag. Just what I wanted for my scope. It is easy to carry, store when not in use, and the scope fits perfectly. The price is good too. A lot better than a hard case. I wish it had more storage space for my accessories. I still have to carry these extra items in a separate case. Again, it is light and easy to carry.

Perfect for my HD8 Optical Tube and accessories. A much better alternative to the very expensive Celestron hard case

This bag is perfect for my 8?SCT. It?s not oversized and great for transporting my telescope.

I was really disappointed when the Celestron hard carrying case only fit the tube for my Evolution 9.25 so imagine my delight when this popped up under "coming soon!" I pre-ordered it and received the notification that it shipped and I was really looking forward to not having to store the tube in the giant box it was shipped in. The case is beautiful, as is the Celestron case for the tripod. The padding is just perfect and you can pop the finder scope, your diagonal and eyepieces into the storage compartment and sling it over your shoulder. Being only 5'4 and 115 lbs I freaked out when the telescope assembly actually arrived and worried... How on earth am I going to transport this thing with any real confidence? Well, this pretty much did it. I have the tube and tripod in their Celestron cases and my mount in a padded parachute bag duffel and I am 100% mobile and ready to set up at my favourite dark skies locations. Absolutely 5 stars across the boards for this handy carrying case. You'll worry less about getting your setup to your destination while taking up MUCH less room than the solid case that only fits the tube anyway.

I bought the bigger one to fit all the extras. So far, so good.

Holds everything I need for a night of sky watching. Convenient, durable fabric, stiff base, handle or shoulder strap. Nice!

Nice bag. 11 inch fits in the nice and snug. Although I have to take guide scope off to fit in bag. One of the zipper loops has broke already otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Works like a charm to be honest, great for fitting my telescope in and I can’t wait to make proper use of it this summer!
