Disappointed

This was a gift for my husband. He put it together and it broke at the connection to the tripod. Upon further inspection, we could see how where it looked like the tripod had been repaired before. Will be returning in store.

It’s not the best

Not so good, thought it would be a little better than what it was. The movement of the tube is very difficult either too stiff or too loose. Couldn’t really focus the telescope.

Telescope

My youngest grandson is a Boy Scout. He was so excited to assemble and try out the telescope. It is amazing the clarity and distance that is available. Great scope for a young scout.

Just... don't...

Just walk away from it right now. I bought it today. There are absolutely no instructions... I know you're thinking "how hard can it be to put it together?" I thought so too. It it difficult to figure out what goes where, how to adjust it to even be able to see out of it, and the tripod is just alright.

Online description was not clear

Sad

Titled on box as a REFLECTING telescope!! Contents are a REFRACTING telescope!!! Huge difference! If that’s any indication of their knowledge of optics I don’t put much faith in this telescope’s quality.
