Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this for my 7 year old nephew who is interested in astronomy. I own two large pro telescopes so I was interested to see how this compares. I was very surprised at how well this works. This is a great starter scope with good optics and I'm considering getting one for myself. My other scopes take about 10 minutes to set up and this scope would make for quick and easy viewing on nights when I don't have a lot of time to go outside and observe. The one suggestion I would make is to buy one or two Celestron Omni eyepieces as they are better quality. I would suggest a 25mm, 12mm or 9mm. The two eyepieces that come with the scope are ok, which is to be expected at this price, but better eyepieces make viewing much more enjoyable. If you are looking for a good telescope but are on a budget, this is the one to get.
