The TelescopeAug 03, 2010
I returned this item, but not any issue related about the performance or components. Telescopes are like clothes, they fit selectively. After talking with the Technical guy at Celestron I discovered that you Need an Dark environment to use the telescope effectively. The first half of enjoying a telescope is having the area to view stars and planets. Choose this telescope (the price was GREAT!) but beware, you have to have the time and environment to really enjoy views.
 Great telescope for the beachJul 26, 2010
We purchased this based on other reviews. It was very easy to put together and also easy to use and to transport. We use it at the beach to watch birds and distant boats. It's been a great telescope for this. - We haven't used it to stargaze yet. I would highly recommend this as a great all-around family telescope.

Great Christmas presentMay 12, 2010
I got this for my boyfriend last Christmas and he still loves it. It has a very sturdy base, and is very nicely made. It even shipped sooner than originally promised! It's not the highest quality telescope, but for this price it was great for a beginner. I would guess that children could use it with ease, as well.

My ReviewFeb 15, 2010
This is my first telescope and I couldn't be happier with the overall quality of the construction and ease of setting up, no tools required. This is a great starter telescope for the money paid with no extra taxes and free shipping how could I complain it was a great deal in my opinion.

Overall ratingFeb 12, 2010
Overall this was a good purchase. My son is a new star gazer and this is just what we needed. It was easy to put together. It took a little while to find something in the sky. We could see the moon great and even make out its craters. I wish we had more magnification--can get more lens for extra purchase however. It is a sturdy telescope and we are happy with it so far. As for delivery, it was here the next day--that blew my socks off!!
