The telescope had obviously been repackaged. The lenses were in a plastic bag…they were cracked and filthy.
This telescope was a real disappointment for me and my son. It is very difficult to aim, the pointer is virtually useless and it has a tendency to drift from where its been pointed. It also doesn’t magnify very well, this combined with the fact that it is difficult to aim means that it is only good for looking at objects that are relatively large to begin with (like the moon)and easy to point at.
Good price but not impressive viewing. Better to be used as a binocular. It doesn’t magnify very well and gets very frustrating to use. Would not recommend.
This is a great FAMILY friendly telescope!! Great value for the price. Easy to use, nice middle of the road telescope. Our children are ages 5 and 8….and they are getting a kick out of exploring the night sky!!
This was chosen as a gift for a 10 year old boy’s birthday and he called to say he LOVED IT!!! Most excited response we have had for any gift we have sent him. His parents were pleased as well. I haven’t actually seen the telescope myself, but judging from their response, it’s a winner. We live 500 miles away from the child, and he asked us to go to our front porch so he could see us! Shipping was amazingly fast, packing was secure, so this was a great find.
