Very good, high quality binoculars that are perfect for looking at the moon and planets. Much more practical than a telescope and with some help, good for the kids too. I use them a bit for bird watching as well, but naturally they are a bit heavy for longer term use. For the price, you will have a hard time finding anything better than these.

They work very well for looking at night sky. The only problem i had...there clumsy...a little heavy if using for a long time...i purchased a 72 " tripod...special for binoculars...makes a huge difference..more enjoyable.
