    This was an impulse buy at a time when there was some activity going on in the night sky but it's turned out to be a decent source interest for not a huge amount of money.

    Really good for looking at the night sky. It is hard to set up the finder and i still have trouble with it. But when you actually find what you are looking for the view is amazing!

    This is a nice beginner telescope. It’s a bit difficult to use with the phone app, but once you get the laser sited in, you can use that. It was fairly easy to assemble.

    Set up was easy, and it comes with more that we thought. It’s been snowy so we haven’t got to use it yet. So far it’s awesome, and very sturdy!

    My Husband loves the planets. He’s been wanting a telescope for some time now. Went to my Best Buy app, searched telescopes and was surprised to see so many results! This one was perfect for us. It has been a great starter telescope.
