Cameron 🥰😎: Very easy to setup, easy to use. Not easy to keep clean 😅.
Definitely a starter telescope. Provides wide view, not detailed one. I will buy some Barlow lenses to make my experience better with this telescope.
Looks cool! Not really big, overall worth the price.
I can advise to the potential buyers.
Thanks

Fernando Wenzke: Es un telescopio sencillo y robusto ideal para principiantes. Realmente se llegan a ver los aros de Saturno así que cumple perfectamente con los que indican.

Tom Umberger: This is a great, affordable starter telescope. I live in the city and can get good views of Saturn and Jupiter. My only complaint is that the mount is stiff and jerky, which makes it hard to precisely aim it at objects in the sky. Once you have it in position, the optics are very good!

Leah: I bought this for my husband and we love it. I bought extra lenses and we had an easy enough time figuring everything out (this is our very first telescope). It's perfect for both celestial and terrestrial gazing. The only thing is that a piece of the tripod just cracked off without any mishandling. We went to move it one evening and it snapped off in my husband's hands. We were surprised as he did nothing drastic or heavy-handed. We went straight to Celestron to see what we could do. Celestron's customer support was prompt and easy to deal with and they shipped us new pieces.

The CalifornianThe Californian: Update:
I dropped a second star after trying to use the scope to look at the moon. This year Jupiter and Saturn were both visible, so I started first on them. Nine months later, Saturn is now a daytime planet and Jupiter sets in the early evening, so I set my sights on the moon. Since I also bought a set of upgraded gold-line eyepieces, I expected to see a nice sharp image. I was very disappointed. Nothing was truly sharp. I tired every trick I knew. I went up and down the magnifications of my gold-line eyepieces. I tried both of the original Celestron eyepieces. I tried a moon filter. I tried adding my 80A filter to the moon filter. I put a cut-out over the large objective lens to reduce total light and increase contrast. I cleaned my eyepieces. I took apart the telescope and cleaned the star diagonal and the objective lens/lenses (The objective uses double lenses). Nothing helped. I began to suspect my eyesight and pulled out my binoculars and found my binoculars and gave me me a nice sharp image at one-eighth the cost. I'm still leaving this telescope 3 stars because I was impressed by it's ability to capture light and see distant faint objects, including Jupiter's moons and...
