I've got an HEQ6 mounted on the pier.
Tho' it's a little fiddly to set up (couldn't for the life of me work out what flange went where).
I've found the pier much easier to work with as my scopes (IM815 & TOA130) easily clear it. The tripod, while a little more stable on rough ground, can interfere with some scopes (particularly long refractors).
The pier assembly is also a little easier to shift IMO.
