I like my Stardust chair, a little light on the padding, but I just added some and it is comfortable now. Easy to store, not too light so it is solid.

Here's one I made myself. Kind of a knock-off of some commercial ones you've seen. I use it with my homemade 13" dob. It works well.

Have you tried a simple pnuematic computer chair? That's what I use with my 10" f5 dob. It just gets high enough to use the dob around zenith, it has a backrest for leaning back and watching meteors or scanning with binos, it rolls around easily and it was free since we had an extra computer chair here in the house. I'm thinking of getting a smaller lighter version to take in the car though.
