We own this telescope as well as a pair of the Galileo binoculars and couldn't be happier with the quality and value! Sure, if you have children, as we do, you have to help with set up and offer instruction, but after that it's time to reach for the stars! We have the DVD that gives SO much info! Great purchase!

You can see the moon very well but not the start I found that this is a good piece of equipment to have for your children to view the moon

This was my first Telescope..Love it...Too cold to go out and play with it much, but spring will come. I can look at stars, planets, and if the ladies in the next town don't close their blinds...hee hee hee.

I am very pleased with this product and think it will give me a lot of pleasure. I am now thinking I also will buy myself a refracter type as well.

I gave it to my little bro for Christmas, and at the beginning he was eseptic but then he love it. It was difficult to make the mars laser eye to work but after a while we did it. Definetily it need and adult supervision for asembling and help to use at the beginning. We expend hours outside checking for stars and the moon.

Although I ordered this in early December, I have yet to see it here at my home. Amazon has delayed shipment twice now, extending the delivery time to as late as Feb 20. I'm disappointed, but am still anxious to see my grandson enjoy his "very late" Christmas present. I'm assuming that the great buy on this item inspired many more orders than Amazon had expected.
