This was a gift from Santa and my kids were excited to see it set up next to the tree. They used it that night and were able to see some stars up close.

Got scared to open this because of all the negative reviews… bought for myself as a beginner telescope (23y.o). Super easy to assemble and i first tried it outside during the day. This helped me get a hang of the focusing and got some cool views of far away trees and some clouds. It’s now nighttime and i just got back in from looking at the moon and it was amazing!! i could see all the craters. Not sure why many people are having such difficulty getting it to focus.. maybe since i had my practice during the day, it made it easier. i would definitely recommend as a beginner telescope!! This picture definitely doesn’t do it justice but here’s a pic i got! (but of a reflection to the right is from me trying to take a picture)

I like the fact that you can rotate it so cool fun

We bought this as a Christmas gift for a 10 year old star gazer! It works very well and she truly enjoys it. Worth every penny

I think it's great for the price. It did take awhile to find the moon but once we got it it was easy to focus on. It would be difficult for younger children to do by themselves. Would still recommend.

My grandson loves to explore with it.

Great starter telescope

Great price and quality

Unfortunately I had to return it because this product was brought twice for the same birthday girl. However I think it's a great ideal and a wonderful product to own.
