I had a solid-tube GSO 12 inch, which I used for three years, only getting rid of it last year when I got my 18 inch. But I agree entirely about it being unwieldy - for the first year I had it I carried it outside, which was a pain although I did not let it put me off observing. I built a shed and put wheels on the base of the scope, which worked very well, as all I needed to do was wheel it out of the shed, collimate, put an eyepiece in and begin observing.
