Rated 5 out of 5

Hard to beat for portability and price point

This is a great little telescope for terrain or astronomy use. I used the stock diagonal with eyepieces I already had and got some nice views of the Sagittarius and Scorpius constellations. Also upgraded to the MeFOTO RoadTrip Aluminum Travel Tripod and it worked pretty well. The finderscope is great and very precise. If you're looking for a portable setup with quality views I'd recommend this OTA. I'd suggest upgrading to better eyepieces and a more sturdy tripod if you don't already have them but just the OTA is worth the price of admission.
