Needs better setup instructions!

Can not figure out how to set up correctly! Instructions are not clear. I'm really disappointed..i was looking foward to using this and getting some cool pictures. I guess I need to google some videos and figure the setup out.

Good starter telescope

First of all, this telescope is a great value for the money spent. It's a great telescope for our small grandchildren. We had it set up rather quickly and the directions were fairly easy to follow. Satisfied customer.

Good value for price

The description indicates it comes with two lenses, but there is a third lens you can purchase separately. It is hard to line up the red sighting dot. But it is a step up from my last telescope and good price so I am happy with it.

Don't drop

I dropped my Telescope bringing in from the porch. I am sure that I caused the mirrors to move. I have found a video that shows how to align them Haven't had a chance to do so yet, because it says give yourself time to get the job done

Junk, do not buy.

Don't waste your money. Mine came badly out of collimation; very hard to get a clear view. Viewfinder is silly, and after three to fours hours of using the focuser cross-threaded and now the whole thing is useless.

Night sky never looked better

It was so exciting to get such an amazing view of the night sky. The stars were so clear that identifying them became a breeze. My 10 year old grandson was estatic and now claims he was yo study astronomy.

Great value

Impressive telescope for the price. It looks beautiful, it is a nice size, and it was easy to assemble. All that said, I have yet to extensively use it but based on initial reaction, this is a very nice product.

Telescope

Very impressive telescope. We didn’t realize it until it came but it also connects to you smartphone so you can download pictures. The whole family has enjoyed looking at the stars. A great family night idea!

Nice product

I like the telescope but the instructions on how to put it together were not very clear. I have not actually used it yet because of the weather but I think it will be fun to use.
