Excellent protections for OTAs of many sizes.
I've been wanting a soft case for my C11 since I got it and now it's here. This is very good, thick material, I only just received this so time will tell on the durability, but it appears to be strong enough for the long haul. It's got enough padding to keep my OTA safe, of course care is still needed to do that. Shoulder strap attachment points are are metal and sturdy. I recommend this to anyone that needs to transport their scope. By adding some internal, padding it appears it would even be useful for smaller scopes and accessories. Even with an 11" tube there is an accessory pouch on the end that makes it convenient for the eye pieces and diagonals.

The wait is over!!!
I've been waiting for something like this for a long time! The padded suitcase version is very expensive and those $50 hardcases from Home Depot takes up too much space when transporting to a dark site location. This is a very good compromise. The duffle bag is made of thick material and has enough padding to keep your scope from getting damaged. Nice Celestron embossing throughout the bag. Clips on the should strap are metal and excellent quality. I would recommend this to anyone that needs to transport their scope without having to take up too much space in their vehicle. Fits my 11" Edge HD perfectly.

EdgeHD 8 fits but
Heavy canvas, well padded, sturdy handles.
I have an EdgeHD 8” it fits with the visual back attached but barely. It wouldn’t fit with any accessories like the finder scope. It Protects the OTA well. Not as well as a hard case but it’s half the cost.

Price vs service
Good bag. A little tight for the C11. Oversized for anything smaller. Reasonable protection for storage or travel to a dark sky site at a far better price than the hard case.

curved shoulder strip pad
especially the shoulder strip pad was curved and was excellent to carry this kind of bulky and heavy bag.

Question & Answer
Question :
Do you have to remove the finder scope to put the OTA in the bag?
Answer :
I think you could leave it on if it were small, but probably better to remove it and put it in the pouch.
Question :
Is there a case similar to this for the Celestron 6” optical tube? Or can this case be used for the 6”?
Answer :
No bag like this for a C-6. You can use this bag for a C-6, but it will swim inside. An alternative is to get yourself a 19 to 22 inch toolbox and line the bottom, sides, ends and lid with half inch to 1 inch foam and you'll have a nice carry case for less than 20 bones! You can also do the same thing with an 8" SCT and a 22 to 24 inch toolbox.
Question :
Will this fit a celestron 11" f/2.2 rowe-ackermann schmidt astrograph?
Answer :
The 11" Telescope Optical Tube Bag is not compatible with the RASA 11" optical tube assembly.
Question :
Wors for nexstar 127 slt?
Answer :
127mm is 5 inches, so this bag would be too large.
Question :
Will the NexStar 130slt fit in this bag? Total height is 11" due to eyepiece being mounted to the scope.
Answer :
No, the Padded Telescope Bag was designed for 11" optical tubes. The 40" Telescope Bag #94025 will fit the entire NexStar 130SLT telescope, mount, tripod, and accessories.
Question :
Would the Nexstar 8SE telescope fit this 8" telescope bag?
Answer :
The NexStar 8SE optical tube assembly and accessories will fit the 8" Telescope Optical Tube Bag. The bag is not large enough to carry the mount or tripod.
