 Exceptional Telescope |
| Review Date: May 15, 2007 |
| Reviewer: J. Scotto, New York |
| I bought ths telescope as a gift for my 6 year ancient nephew. He absolutely likes it. He can't wait until it gets dark outside so that he can see all of the stars. The telescope is clear and comes with numerous lenses. You can also buy garnishing for the telescope. I would highly urge this for any first time user. |
WOW!!!

| I would give this telescope 1000000000000000 stars. The price. THe quality. This telescope kiks. When I looked into it I saw about dozens nebulaes and a few comets. I saw what apeared to be the tad pole galaxy, and andromeda. I saw every single planet and their moons except for pluto's, mercury's. venus's, and a few of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. This telescope is the perfect telescope for people ranging from beginners to pros. Awesome! |

| I purchsed this telescope for my parents to use at their lake home and the optical quality is fantastic, especially for an inexpensive, starter telescope. They've mostly used it to look at nature (eagles, etc.) and boats on the lake and they can get close enough to see what they are transmittable! Haven't used it to find stars yet, but Im sure it works fantastic. |
