MESIXI Astronomical Telescopes and Travel Monocular Telescope Bundle

Debra Mcginty: The large lense fell out of the tube. Needs to be fixed or replaced. I only bought this four months ago. I'm pretty sure this is not normal wear and tear. The scope has been pretty amazing for what I use it for... watching wildlife. I kept the review average because I didn't know how to contact you. Love how easy to use and light it is. Not a fan of the lense falling out. Help.

Average American Reviewer: Received this to teach my kids about astronomy.
Pro: The telescope is medium to small size. Easy to transport. The case is big enough to hold everything without fighting to close it up. TIP: Keep the packaging box, works great for storage. Easy to set up. No real assembly required. Just put it together (eye piece here, attach that), its about the options you want.
Its pretty good for teaching. The view of the moon is solid.

Bad: Only two negatives. The tiny aiming scope that is attached to the top is cheap and the inverted optics makes it annoying to find the star or even the moon easily. There is no fine aiming, its all gross aiming.
Second thing, the cell phone attachment is total crap. Does not attach correctly and it falls off. Do not trust your cell hone to it. It is suppose to screw on to the optics, but there is no grip and it slides off.

Overall: The telescope itself is very good. It feels like quality (minus the mini-aimer and the cell phone attachment).

Weight is less than 5 pounds. Comes with two optic pieces and a 3x attachment. Instructions are a solid 90% solution for your questions. Does not cover the mirror cover, function and use....

E Lasalle: I have joined an Astronomy Club recently. I am able to learn more about outer space, planets, stars and constellations. I was told that there isn’t a ‘Perfect’ telescope, it depends on my budget and observing goals. The price of this Mesixi set is lower than many ordinary beginner sets. Best of all, it comes with many pieces of practical items as well as optical devices worth over hundreds of dollars. It’s the perfect choice for me. The installation was quite simple with the step by step photo instructions. The tripod is very sturdy. It also comes with another mini tripod for the enclosed photo telescope. The lens are coated. Coated Lens provide some level of protection against damage from scratching and susceptible to glare. The set also included optical devices such as a Finderscope (an aiming auxiliary telescope), a 25mm eyepiece, a 10mm eyepiece (10mm provides a higher magnification), a Zenith mirror (for precise measurement of star positions), a Planetary Multiplier Mirror, a 3x Burlow Lens (increases the effectiveness of the focal length to magnify higher quality images). When I mixed and matched all these gadgets with the 400mm focal length Lens Tube, it opened up a...

Strawman: For beginners is a great telescope, it's easy to assemble. The only thing I'm disappointed is the solar filter you put on the cap to look at the sun. It doesn't stay in place and just slides off. I have yet to try it on the sun, which is the reason I bought it, for sunrise and sunset. But other than that it looks like a great starter for star gazing.

Annie: My kid is taking an astronomy class and he comes home every day telling me things that he's learned from school and how much he enjoys it. He's been asking for a telescope for a while and for his birthday this was what I bought him, and he was thrilled and couldn’t wait to use it. It didn't take too long to put together as long as you follow the installation guide provided in the box. We waited for a nice clear night sky and we brought the telescope out into the front lawn. We hooked up my phone and got some great images. I don't know much about astronomy, but my son seemed to know what he was seeing and that meant that this was worth every penny. This telescope is great for beginners and although it's a bit pricey but compared to the other telescopes available this is a steal for such a great product. We were able to see through it clearly and it was great to be able to spend time together away from the electronics. This came in a really nice bag so that it would be perfect to use if we were to ever go out and needed to bring the telescope for easier transportation. It’s very light as well so my son would be the one to carry it around. This is a very educational piece of...
