I love this telescope! It took me less than 15 minutes to setup and it’s so easy to use. The image of the moon is so clear! I even used it to record some videos a deer and they were clear. Multifunctional! Definitely recommend!

Like as described, the telescope is easy to assemble and disassemble for travelling and storage. The pieces are large enough that not too many pieces to keep track for travelling, but small enough that users will have no difficulty to pick them up. The travelling case has enough organization that pieces are easy to put away. The telescope comes with 2 different lenses with finders scope. Finders scope is the one you will use to pin point what you want to look at. Then you adjust the bigger scope. The telescope height is easy to adjust and covers wide range of heights. My husband is just over 6 foot and he got not no problem using it without discomfort. The image is very clear and easy to see once you learn how to focus it properly. I would recommend it!

Received this telescope over the weekend for my 10 year old son. Today we set it up. Set up was very easy and is done by my son with minimal help. We like it. Its very lightweight to carry, easy to find focus on objects through view finder. His 1st find was the moon and viewed properly. This is a perfect piece for the beginners. The best part is mounting the phone and viewing thru it. My friend has a celestron telescope but due to no phone set up most of the time the focus moves away which is a plus here.
But overall its very good. Easy to carry for camping and outdoor activities. We will post more pictures as we proceed on the exploration... This is also a good gift for juniors with in the budget and introducing them to planetary universe .

This telescope comes with the same features as my professional telescope. The only difference is that because this telescope is so light, small movements will make you lose your lock, but of course that will happen because the telescope only weighs a few pounds (my professional telescope weighs closer to 80 lbs, so I would never compare the two in terms of stability).
This telescope was easy to assemble and the instructions made it clear to understand how much magnification I would get from the different combination of lenses. It is nice that the image remains right-side-up when using the right lens combo. It is impressive I am loving it and would definitely recommend it

Our family had a GREAT time using my husbands birthday gift for the first time! We are newbies to this sort of thing but it was a snap.
Extra bonus for the Iphone attachment !! We got some super good shots of the moon and of our friends across the bay :)
LOVE IT! 5 STARS for sure :)

I highly recommend this telescope for beginners like me! I initially bought this for my son but I kind of wanted to learn more about using telescopes while assembling this. Every part of this item was packed carefully and I appreciate that because there were no scratches when I received this. It was very easy to assemble and the instructions are easy to understand. I need to do more research on how to utilize telescopes and find the best times to look at the moon and the planets. This is an ideal gift too! There is also a way to attach your phone to it so you can take pictures or actually view from your phone. There’s still a lot to learn about astronomy but this is a start!

My son loved it, easy to assemble, ready in minutes! He assembled himself. I am happy with the purchase

It has been fun hanging out in the yard with the kids at night. Something new to them other than watching Netflix. I assume assembly is easy since my 10 years old put it together. She wanted help but I told her to figure out since she had plenty time. It took her an hour to finish. I don't know about stars but I know we could see stars thru this telescope which is good enough for us. Happy with it quality.

Such a great product. More than just a average astronomical telescope! Still playing around with it. Didn’t expect coming with free phone holder. Loving it

My 4 year old got this for his birthday and we love it! We love that we can put the phone and and snap the pictures with the remote!
Kimberly
My 15 yr old son absolutely loves this telescope! It was easy to assembly, it’s worth every dollar! Highly recommended
Sunny
I bought this for my 7 year old son and now we both love it! We have been looking closely at the Moon and stars. Its a great telescope! We have been able to take pictures with our phone as well of the views!

Great beginner telescope for my son and daughter!! They are obsessed with the solar system as of late, but we also use it to watch birds and deer in our backyard.
Being able to also hook it up to a phone really helps my younger one see vs trying to get her to close one eye and peep into the telescope end. Overall, pretty impressed with the purchase and how sturdy it is for the price. Even comes with a great carry case to pack it all nicely away when not in use! Would totally recommend it for anyone with little kids interested in getting into telescopes!

We purchased this to share our love of nature, the moon and the birds and such, with the grandchildren. This is a good telescope for beginners. It is very lightweight and is easy to carry. The included backpack easily holds everything and it does not have to be dismantled to store in the backpack. Love that it does all come in and store in the easy-to-tote backpack. It's easy to grab it and bring it along into nature or just the yard. It's fun and pretty amazing to see the moon's craters up close. We and our next door neighbor both have bird nests in our trees and the grand kids love to see them up close. They're very into birds right now at 6 and 7 years old. This telescope has really sparked the grand kids' interest in all things sky and nature!
