Compact

This is my first telescope. I was very impressed with the presentation of the telescope. It has a carrying case with pockets. This makes it very organized and easy to transport. The directions for set up were a little confusing but manageable. Overall, I really like this telescope. Clear images can be seen through the lens.

Great for the whole family!

It was a huge hit with the whole family! We were all amazed at the quality of what we could see. I wasn’t sure how much use this thing would get. I was expecting it to get the occasional use but the kids love it and we have been discovering new constellations weekly. Highly recommend! Great way to get the whole family involved in an activity together. Bonus: super compact and easy to store.

Well made

This is a well made item and comes with a durable case to keep it safe when it’s not being used. Kids have a great time going into backyard and setting this up to gaze at the stars. Product is easy to put together, lens is clear and kids love to look at the stars, I love the case for safe keeping.
