My 12 inch arrived today and what a machine it is standing up in the loungeroom. It is heavy but I still had no problem lifting it out of the box and mounting it on the tripod by myself. I got the get-a-grip handles installed and the mounting assistant as well to make it easier. I must say that these two accesories are a must if you want to mount a scope this size by your self. What they say on other forums about these accesories is true. If you are a strong person in good shape and you want a 12 200R and are prepared to cart this to a dark sky site then go for it. I was glad I got the 12 now instead of the 10 as I would have wanted to get the larger one in a few months.
Matt.
