| I bought this as a Christmas bestow for my wife and we haven't place it down since. So far we've seen the moon as if we were so close we could touch it and even though it took us some time to get use to the notebook generated map of space, and to figure out where leo was so we could find Saturn it was fun looking for it. Now that we've located saturn we hope to see Mars and some more planets as the year goes by. I find it annoying though that some of these people who review these return give them terrible ratings since they are either too bone idle to really work toward the much loved outcome or they are just plain stupid...anyway, this product is excellent to go. |

At the price this is an resolution steal. I own numerous telescopes. The optics in this 60mm "spy glass" telescope are really superb for viewing the moon.
All telescopes in this price range suffer from wimpy tripods and this one is no exception.
This is a fantastic buy. |
Perfect for any young astronomer!

I bought this telescope this past December as a Christmas bestow for my 10 year ancient sister. She had always wanted a telescope so she could sit on the grass at night, staring at the stars. As she is in no way looking to become an astronomer, and we knew the telescope would be not anything more than a novelty for her, I was searching for a touch inexpensive, yet sturdy. In the past the telescopes she has received were bought for around fifty dollars at a toy store, only to be opened up and found not to work and to fall apart within a few days. After doing some investigate online this telescope seemed to be the best option - as the price and reviews all screamed positive!
I placed my order and received the product within 7 days, on ordinary shipping. After my sister opened up the package we tested it out, and it worked fantastic. The features on it are restricted, but that's perfect for an amateur astronomer. We get a clear view of the skies, and since December it's been taken out at least once a week for some fun entertainment.
We've used the CD that came with it to pull up a map of the skies, and have tried to find some specific stuff. While it did take some time, we did find some planets and constellations. We are not space enthusiasts though, and just looking through the eyepiece is enough enjoyment for us.
I'd urge this product for anyone who just wants to see the stars and moons and planets at night! As long as you aren't looking to...measure star sizes, find out a new planet, or find aliens floating around up there, I can safely say that you won't be disappointed.

| I got this telescope for my daughter's birthday. This is an awesome telescope, especially for a first telescope. The seller I went through had a fantastic price. The telescope is touchy, but if you can deal with that, it is a fantastic buy. |
