    Grandson loves this gift. They can take pictures of the moon when looking at it. He is super excited about what he is capable of seeing beyond the clouds. Perfect for age 11.

    Good telescope for beginners with easy manual and setup. We have been using it to do simple star gazing and things like that would definitely recommend for beginners especially with this price.

    Save your money and invest in a better scope. This is a good moon scope, but anything more than that, you will be disappointed. I even invested in better lenses and that resulted in marginal improvement. I could see Saturn and its moons. But I only knew it was Saturn because of the Starsense app. I found Jupiter and could barely make out the rings. It is so small that it is not worth the effort.
