Bad quality eyepiece
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have some few problems with the telescope. The 10mm eyepiece isn’t good enough to see big objects in space. It’s suppose to be good enough to see further. Pls make the 10mm eyepiece more better so that I’m able to study astronomy.
I would recommend this to a friend Amazing entry and good intermediate level scope
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this Telescope. It’s perfect for beginners and intermediate users. Bought it for my daughter and she was able to quickly get it setup and started stargazing within 15 min once it was assembled. Assembly took about 20 min. Photo of the moon was taken with an iPhone through the lens eye piece. Such a great purchase.

Good optics in a terrible mount
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The actual telescope is a fine starter option, and smart sense is awesome. The porblem comes down to the tripod, it is so wobbly that it is almost impossible to properly view anything. I would go with a donsonian mount for better experiences.

Broken pieces from the tripod
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Its so frustrating to wait all that time for my telescope, to find out that the tripod is broken, i dont know, im suspecting that its either was used before or it was broken during the shipping.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend Can't see anything
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Set up the telescope and couldn't see anything. So We watched every video we could find on how to work it to see what we were doing wrong and still NOTHING. Complete waste of money. Very disappointing. Would not recommend.

Good for beginners
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve enjoyed seeing Jupiter, Saturn, craters on the moon, and stars and clusters. I’d say you’ll need better eyepieces than the ones they give you. The app is pretty handy for finding your targets, however, I do have some trouble getting it aligned since I live in the city and skies are not always clear. The tripod works well, has a tray to put things on, very basic. I did have to buy the pads to suppress the tiny shakes coming from my balcony. This is great for beginners, I feel that you might be able to find cheaper alternatives for 5 inch newtonians, but if you prefer Celestron, this would do well.
