Affordable big telescope!

It is indeed a "monster" telescope! You can tell that it was well made, really good packaging too. So in a few weeks, I should bring it to the desert, and by what I saw, regarding the telescope itself, I'm sure I will have amazing nights of stargazing! ;) I'm happy with my purchase.;)

Great Deal on my telescope

Really love my telescope. It was easy to put together. Contained all the accessories I needed to get started. Looking forward to getting used to it. Already thinking about all the nighttime objects I?ll trying to look at.

Nice lightbucket

Very nice scope. Easy to assemble. Once collimated it gave great views. Do recommend upgrading the finder to a right angle finder or red dot as it?s kinda awkward to look through. Also helps if you already have some better eyepieces as the included ones are just so-so. The tension control works very well at supporting my heavy eyepieces without slipping and the motion on both axis is smooth.

The Sky-Watcher Classic Dobsonian Telescope 254mm/1200mm (10") has a "paraboloidal" primary mirror to eliminate spherical aberration and a four-arm, secondary- mirror bracket with fine supports (0.5mm thick), to reduce diffraction spikes and light loss. In addition, this model include a 2" focuser with a 1.25" adapter, allowing the use of either eyepiece size. This model also include the new feature-tension control handle.
