    Bought this as a gift for my husband. He absolutely loved it. On clear nights we’ve been able to see Saturns rings, Mars and Jupiter. Great beginner telescope, and the app makes alignment super easy.

    Awesome beginner telescope! Great magnification for the value! The app is easy to use and has great reviews. I highly recommend this product. We can't wait for the warmer weather so we can spend more time with it in the evenings.

    The starsense app makes it easy to navigate systems. The only thing that i do not like is having to use a seperate device so if you needed your phone for anything. You wouldn’t be able to use it.

    We are just beginners but for having no experience with a telescope this one is great. Came with fantastic instructions and we have seen some pretty amazing things with it. Even got to see Jupiter and its moons!
