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!!

It is OK as a toy, but not worth the price.Feb 08, 2010 the quality of the item is OK. I am looking for a suitable power telescope to look more details on the planets near us. This item can not do it. I used a camera with digital zoom to look at the moon, the result is better than using this item.
Celestron 21061 AstroMaster 70 AZ Refractor ReviewFeb 01, 2010 The telescope tube is good, but the only bad on this part is the tripod stand, it does not tighten the telescope to a particular location, it should have been more sophesticated and easy to tighten up.
I am not at all happy with the tripod
great for kidsJan 26, 2010 I was disappointed when the 1st one we received was damaged since it was for Christmas. We sent it back to Santa and received a new one quickly! My son loves his telescope and so does my hubby. It's easy to use and the clarity is good. It's a good, inexpesive option for your little astronomer!
