Here is a photo of my various gear set up. My 8" Dobsonian Reflector is right in front.

Over to the left, in front of the binoculars, is a old office gas lift chair, back removed. I do most of my observing through the dob sitting on this chair. I might have to stand if I'm pointing towards the zenith (directly up). It would be much the same for a 6" telescope, but for 10" and 12" you'll spend more time on your feet, unless you buy the adjustable observing chairs. There are various models for sale but, if you search, various designs have been described in this forum.
I hope this puts things in perspective.
