Celestron Starhopper mirror

I have a Celestron Starhopper 8" f6 that has a curved mirror blank. The primary mirror is held in place with a bolt in the center to the collumation screws and holder. This mirror is hard to collimate correctly. Has anyone had experience with this scope or mirror?

I had/have one, what problems are you experiencing? I ended up replacing my mirror with a high end 7" but the cell is basically the same and haven't experienced any problems yet.
