    Perfect

    I did a bit of research on a few different Telescopes before I decided to buy this one. I made the right choice! I highly recommend this scope for beginner/intermediate astronomers.

    A gift for my son

    I bought this Telescope for my 12 year old son. My goal was to bring it to the cottage in Cape Cod for some stargazing. It's clearly a very well built product. However, it's a bit bigger and heavier than I expected. Something a bit lighter and compact would've been more ideal, especially for young Kids.
