This thing is absolutely amazing! It was probably the best gift. I have gotten my son in a long time. He fell in love with it (as did I) -- Being able to look at the sky together was awesome. Amazing lens and extremely durable. This makes a one of a kind gift and I would certainly recommend..

This telescope is awesome. It has 2 X 19.1 & 51.5 power magnification levels. It also has 26 MM & 9.7 MM PLOSSL WIDE EYEPIECES. With that you get clearer images. The moon looks so clear, you can see the craters. It has a phone attachment so you can take pictures. What i like is that it’s light. I have another one but it’s too heavy, so I don’t take it out as much. I feel this one is is easier to use and the images are clearer and crisp. I had it up on my granddaughters birthday, both adults and kids used it. They loved it. It would be a good gift for all ages.

It's a $69 telescope and Very difficult to use: eyepiece is mounted at 45º off axis. It would be better to be mounted either horizontal or vertical. The elevation and train pivot points stick (design) which makes centering in on celestial bodies or following the moon's orbit almost impossible (telescope jumps all over the place). NG makes an upgraded tripod with motorized celestial drive for this telescope - but it can't be bought separately, and I don't need a 2nd telescope.

First of all, the instructions. What?! They are so hard to follow. I don’t know if I assembled it right or not, but I’m guessing not because it doesn’t work for me. I’m not able to focus on anything. Second, there’s a picture that says not to use your eye to look through, so is this only for phones?? I don’t know much about telescopes, I was hoping this one would be a good one for beginners since it was cheap. I’m returning this.

Nice product for the price

A little difficult to focus @ first, but now I’m enjoying it!

Bought it for my kids and I to use and it was super easy to use and set up. It’s a Newtonian style telescope so it reverses the image.

I bought this for my son and he was able to set it up and begin using it quickly. It's exciting to see Jupiter's moons.

I purchased for my brother-in-law's bday. He, and his family, were pleasantly surprised at what they could see and the fairly easy set up!

Good quality for the price. Set up is a little tricky but when you get it right, it’s a good telescope for the money. My kids really enjoy looking at the night sky with this telescope. Sleek design makes it look more expensive than it was.
