Rated 5 out of 5

Perfect Choice to beginners

I was in my first Astronomy class. And there were about 6 more telescopes. I thought others would be better then mine. They looked amazing and bigger. But when we used them, my telescope was the most interesting for the people. Images sharply and easy to use. I recommended it to a 15 people i think.
