No issue with functionality as we've had great images of the moon and my 6 year old loves it. Easy to move - it’s light enough for my son to carry. Really good value for a starter. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome scope *by R***N on 9 September 2026* Brought this, awesome that I can use the mobile phone with it, comes with lens and I can see miles, with or without phone, only - point there's no bag. But I had a old bag to use. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product and ideal purchase for children interested in astronomy! *by M***S on 4 January 2026* Purchased as a Christmas present for our children, aged 4 & 6. The initial set up was quick, taking around 10 minutes. The instructions were clear. It was a little fiddly to calibrate the top sight and main scope together as the adjustments are completed between three screws. This part probably took me a good 15/20 minutes to do but that was trying to get it near perfect. That all proved to be for nothing though when the 4 year old grabbed the top sight with excitement and moved it out of position, oh well! The telescope is sturdy and feels well made. The legs quickly collapse down so you can move it around as required or shrink the size to store. The light weight makes it’s easy to carry although if it was a bit heavier it may hold its position better when operating the zoom , I find that it judders around a little. We’ve used this a couple of times now and the children have been very impressed with the clarity of seeing the moon. Equally I too have been impressed with the image quality and think for the price paid this offers good value for money. I managed to snap a photo through my phone which I felt was pretty impressive. For someone looking for a first time telescope or for their children I would recommend this purchase. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/715780161-esako-telescope-for-beginners-and-adults-70mm-portable-beginner-telescopes](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/715780161-esako-telescope-for-beginners-and-adults-70mm-portable-beginner-telescopes) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-22*
