Ditto for me.
I have an in-ground pier, which is about right for the EM200 GEM, and the 10" f5 newt. For imaging it is perfect, and at a pinch I use it for the refractor as well, (imaging only). For visual with the refractor, I need to be sitting on the ground. Mine is about 600mm to the top of the pier, not including the mount.
For limited visual, and imaging with the refractor I have built an "extension".
