Great but arrived with a broken laser sight
Ordered this as an upgrade for our avid stargazer Son. He loves it! Instructions clear and well built - took around 20 minutes to complete the assembly. One small problem. The laser sight was damaged so we need to organise a replacement. These things happen I suppose.

Professional star gazing
Allegedly the intro model to the professional range but this scope is out of this world for clarity and ease of use, highly recommended

Good but not great
There’s definitely still a learning curve if you’re new to this. The mobile alignment is never accurate and ended using the red-dot method. Haven’t attempted to find many yet. But I did see Jupiter, and … well … it was definitely visible, but no near what I was expecting. The moon is obviously the easiest and best to look at. A bit disappointing that the accessories are quite expensive.

Don't Finance This
Do not buy this through Barclays Partner Finance, their app is absolute shambles and I cannot sign up or manage anything. I'm pretty sure they've over charged me which is why I'm struggling after the purchase

This is a very good telescope.
I have to admit that the telescope is perfect for me. It's light, easy to move, and easy to setup. The tripod moves smoothly. No looseness or bobbing that I can see or feel. On top of that the tripod is a very comfortable height. I haven't used it yet due to weather. This is an excellent scope.

Excellent for hobbyists
You can clearly see the moon, and if you have good eyes you can glimpse Saturn with the ring too
